Hochi Mama was the God Mother of all aspiring street artists and rappers in the early nineties. An immigrant in the big city, she hosted underground art shows along with rap battles for the rejects; a place where you could just be at home, but with family. The whole crew was always welcome, the more the merrier, and she was well renowned for creating innovative dishes using the original famous dishes from her home country, and plenty of booze, in her spacious and homey warehouse.This cheeky, vibrant and buzzing Vietnamese Fusion venue is one for your to-do list. Boasting a killer menu and a super cool vibe, this place is known for a cocktail, feast or an intimate date night.

Suzie Q was unapologetically rebellious, alluring and ahead of her time. Bathed in the red glow of oriental charm, her underground chinese restaurant was a well-kept secret by those in the know during the 80’s in downtown San Francisco; a hidden gem drawing people in from across the city with her timeless dishes and unforgettable ambiance. Suzie Q embodies the indulgence of this rich legacy, re-imagined through a modern lens and coupled with retro oriental charm, classic chinese fare and contemporary cocktails.

    Small portion size for the price, food itself was very tasty. Soft tofu dish is the winner, good drink menu. great spot for a hangout with not too much noise. Toilet needs a little update or cleaning.

    Atlas Dining is one of, if not our favourite in Melbourne. It's our go to for relaxed fine dining where you can experience new cuisines and flavours in a great space and with amazing staff. It was our first time eating there in a while just due to life, but it was so good to be back! We love both real Mexican and Tex Mex, and this felt like such a fantastic combination of the two. All the courses were outstanding, but special praise is definitely for the woodfired pecan pie. It was incredible!! Our only complaint is that we could have eaten a couple more each it was so good!!
