The Best Truffle Menus in Melbourne This Winter

Truffle season in Melbourne is short, rich and best approached with a booking. Each winter, the city’s restaurants turn fresh black truffle into the a cold-weather indulgence worth leaving the house for: shaved over pasta, tucked into butter, layered through cheese, stirred into martinis and sent out across one-off dinners, set menus and very serious winter specials.

If you’re looking for the best truffle menus, truffle dinners and truffle events in Melbourne this winter, we’ve rounded up the restaurants making the most of the season while it lasts.

Truffle Series Feed Me Menu at From Here By Mike

From Here By Mike is going deep on truffle season with a limited Truffle Series Feed Me menu, available for dinner from Friday 19th to Tuesday 30th June. Designed for two or more, the $160pp menu opens with a truffle-infused martini before moving through Del Bocia truffle salted butter on sourdough, sea urchin rosti with truffled buckwheat honey, Vanella stracciatella with baby beets and walnuts, and a veal and pork lasagna finished with truffle bechamel and fresh shavings. Even tiramisu gets the tableside truffle treatment.
