The 38 Best Restaurants in Melbourne | Eater

"The team at Manzé don’t accept that wine bars have to rhyme with European food, instead focusing on Mauritian cuisine. Chef Nagesh Seethiah mainly explores bold Indo-Mauritian flavors, but also dabbles with the French, Chinese, and Creole influences that can be found on the African island. Think pumpkin confit in mustard oil, scallop with green mango pickle, and persimmon tarte Tatin. The set menu favors organic, ethically sourced ingredients, and the natural wine list follows similar principles. Small but welcoming, the North Melbourne 24-seater confirms that the best things often come in small packages." - Audrey Bourget
