Basque Cheesecake. A brûléed top means heat pushed right to the edge — scorched sugar, a shell that gives way to something dense and perfectly smooth beneath. Strawberry cuts through and eucalyptus adds a note you don't expect but won't forget.

The bullhorn pepper goes over the coals until the skin blisters and sweetness turns to char. The kingfish stays raw, clean, cold. It's a dish built on opposites — and it works.

What people say

Australian restaurants are known for their commitment to using local and seasonal ingredients, and Matilda159 on Domain Road in Melbourne is no exception. Chef Scott Pickett's dedication to honouring the best of Australian produce is evident in every dish served at this restaurant.

One standout dish that showcases the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients is the Humpty Doo barramundi with brown butter dashi, turnips, and Warrigal greens. The turnips add a mildly sweet and slightly peppery flavor that perfectly complements the tender barramundi.

Matilda159 recently celebrated its fifth birthday with a preview of its new winter menu, which promises to be just as fire-fueled as the previous five years. And for those looking for a delicious breakfast option, the 'lap of the Tan' featuring fresh seasonal fruit, coconut yoghurt, and roasted granola is available on Fridays through Sundays.

The restaurant also offers private dining options for events like the recent Wittner Shoes AW23 launch luncheon. And if you mention their 'winter event promotion' when booking your early-week event, you'll receive a 10% restaurant voucher (terms & conditions apply).

With limited tickets remaining for their special five-year milestone dinner and after-party, it's clear that Matilda159 has become a beloved destination for foodies in Melbourne.
