Est Est Est -Reflections on a Grand Restaurant Partnership -Rita Erlich

from Travel Writers Radio

Melbourne's restaurants keep going strong even after they have closed, thanks to chefs and those who work front of house. Good people move on, within the city, the country, and internationally. A grand dinner at the Botanical Hotel in South Yarra recently showcased dishes from a restaurant called Est Est Est that was all the rage 30 years ago. Dated? Not a bit. And the people behind the restaurant then have been busy for 30 years, and are still planning ahead. Our Culinary Editor Rita Erlich spoke to Donovan Cook and Frank Heaney. Photo: Rita Erlich
