Republica
You know the scene at Republica in St Kilda even if you haven’t been there; its design and setup is testament to the cool chic Melbourne lifestyle that is all about keeping it fun, fresh and funky. Found in the Sea Baths complex overlooking Port Phillip Bay, this venue ticks all the boxes - the ideal place for people-watching and serving great food every day of the week. The restaurant menu may include dishes like salmon tartare, horseradish cream, pickled shallots and Avruga caviar to start; before picking up pizza slices like salami, nduja, pepperoncini, taleggio and hot honey. Perhaps pan-seared barramundi entices, served with clams, tartare velouté and coastal herbs, while for a decadent dessert, opt for sticky toffee pudding, malt custard ice cream and salted caramel sauce.
