Discover Melbourne this Winter
If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s to appreciate being able to get out and about and to see and enjoy our beautiful city and home. As restrictions ease and the city of Melbourne is back open again, it’s nice to see some normalcy return to the CBD, but we’ve a little way to go, before it’s a one was hustling metropolis again.
With that said though, we’d love to welcome you back to the French Brasserie dining at our table and enjoying our hospitality and haute cuisine.

1. Take in an exhibition
French Impressionism from the Fine Arts of Boston (USA) is currently on display at the National Gallery of Victoria. From now until the 3rd of October. In an international exclusive, the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) presents a major exhibition of more than 100 masterworks of French Impressionism in partnership with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA), an institution renowned world-wide for its rich holdings of Impressionist paintings.
Part of the Melbourne Winter Masterpieces exhibition series, French Impressionism features works by Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edgar Degas, Camille Pissarro, Mary Cassatt and more – including 79 works that have never before been exhibited in Australia. These important loans from the MFA’s iconic collection provide the rare opportunity to see a significant grouping of Impressionist masterworks in Australia.
