Flower Drum
A Melbourne institution that continues to define Cantonese fine-dining in Australia
Tucked away down Market Lane in Melbourne, Flower Drum is a historic dining destination specialising in Cantonese fine dining. The menu is distinctively Cantonese, where each dish is crafted with classic technique and quality Australian produce, and familiar recipes are presented with an elevated touch. The grand dining room exudes old-world elegance, where red silk panels, classical artwork and spacious tables set the stage for the refined plates to come.
Tatler Tip
Grab a drink from the bar, which serves a menu of bites crafted from the kitchen and cocktails that teeter on the friskier side.
Must Try
- Rock lobster with ginger and spring onion
- Paspaley pearl meat with garlic chives and asparagus
- Bultarra saltbush lamb brisket claypot
