Vaporetto Bar and Eatery
Hawthorn, Melbourne
60+YRSThe vision for Vaporetto was inspired by many trips to this beautiful part of the world and wanting to create something that embodies old school hospitality filled with warmth, generosity and charm. We were particularly drawn to Venice for the art, culture, romance, mystery, and the rich, fascinating history associated with controlling the spice trail for centuries. Venetian food is like Italian food without rules! And let’s face it, who doesn’t love Venice?

Buono Restaurant & Bar
Parkdale, Melbourne
60+YRSA 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.

Osteria Renata
Prahran, Melbourne
65+YRSA neighbourhood diner inspired by Italy. Hosting friends, family and colleagues at the dinner table. This handsome restaurant and bar shares some of the same European charm that diners have come to love at their other venue (in Park St, Sth Melb). But one of the major differences is that the kitchen is significantly larger. So big, in fact, that there’s a dedicated “pasta lab”, serving as a pasta production HQ for both venues. The restaurant is named after the co-owner Alex Ghaddab’s grandmother, Renata, whose legacy of warm, friendly-faced hospitality is what the team aspires to offer.
