Dinner @ Fenix

I know it was only Sunday when we last came here but we're eager to try the new dinner menu.

As we have read, the liquid nitrogen cleanser is back, this time there's a deeper lime flavour to the mix.

Spring/Summer: Cucumber essence, yoghurt mozzarella

The cucumber essence is served in this beaker and you add it yourself.

As a wine match we're given Gin and Tonics which should please Jon from Melbourne Foodie. I have to agree it works really well with the refreshing nature of this dish.

Pork Belly: Coconut noodles, fish coral, laksa

I've written about this dish many times before and I don't think I need to say that we just love it.

Lime Pith

After the pork you need your palette cleansed and this does that job very nicely - a mix of Daikon ribbons, grilled onions, lime juice and broad beans

Blue Eye: Chorizo dust, re-hydrated potato, citrus pith

As we've come to expect, the fish is done to perfection, a crisp skin atop moist flesh.

Lamb Rump with sweet breads, leek

  1. Hey,

    Great to see that you enjoyed your trip and are back in Melbourne. I always enjoy reading your blog, and especially about your adventures at Fenix, and I am thrilled that you have seen my blog and made reference to me and the G&T.

    I look forward to returning to Fenix again very soon and trying more of their menu.

    Happy eating,
    Jon (Melbourne Foodie)

  2. Thanks Jon - when we were given the G&T we were explained about how it all came about, so they gave due credit to you!
