Hidden Restaurants in Melbourne, Australia
A recent article in the New York Times talks about the recent phenomenon of hidden restaurants in Berlin. These are often small underground restaurants that are either invite only or not advertised, hidden through unmarked doors and courtyards. Often people whisper about the existence of speakeasy bars in Melbourne which I can’t confirm or deny, although a good majority of our bars aren’t particularly conspicuos. Aside from these pseudo hidden venues, we do however have one “hidden restaurant” that I know of. This belongs to the Global Gobbler. He cooks themed meals for random people who have discovered him through his website. I haven’t been to one of the meals, but I’m told he does a great job and a good time is all but guaranteed.
Does anyone know of any other hidden restaurants in Australia?
Update: A Hidden Pizza Restaurant in Fitzroy is opening next week. How underground it actually is remains to be seen.

There’s Table For 20 in Sydney (www.tablefor20.blogspot.com), which I have yet to go to — but it’s based on the guerrilla-dining concept. I’d love to go!

I will open a table for three for my gourmet dinner soon. Anyone interested? If you like asian/ spicy food, you will love it. BYO please.

Maybe we should start one and leave tantalizing hints all over the internet?
