Chin Chin
Southeast Asian spice meets Melbourne cool (l,d; $$)
Packed, playful and consistently delicious, art-slung, post-industrial Chin Chin encapsulates everything that makes Melbourne’s dining scene one of the world’s best.
Head chef Benjamin Cooper channels the spice, tang, sweet and sour of Southeast Asia, churning out punchy, modern share plates like crispy barramundi with green apple salad and caramelised pork. For a good-value overview, opt for the $55 ‘Feed Me’ menu.
