Officina Gastronomica Italiana

Prahran, Melbourne

60+YRS

A gastronomic workshop of artisan pasta, wine and espresso celebrated with true Italian conviviality. "Head chef Gabriele Coniglio, who joined the team in 2020, has created menus that offer a range of seasonal dishes. Come for the small bites, like the fried truffle croquettes or calamari, which Casoni says are best enjoyed with a glass of natural wine. There’s also plenty of cured meats – shaved in-house by Coniglio – that match well with the house-made focaccia." - Broadsheet.com.au

Buono Restaurant & Bar

Parkdale, Melbourne

35-45YRS

A hidden gem! Parkdale probably isn’t the first place that springs to mind when you think of high-end Italian food. But with their smart-casual restaurant and bar, Buono, co-owners Fabio Magliano, Cinzia Buono and head chef Daniele Ruffolo clearly have other ideas about the quiet seaside suburb. The trio has nailed the seaside brief by filling the space with marine hues. Think teal banquette seating, white painted brick walls, and aqua bar tiling laid to invoke the Mediterranean Sea.
