A trip to Melbourne last year kicked off with dinner at @arurestaurant last month. Very nice small plates cooked over fire but pretty terrifying when you have brutal jet-lag, your body thinks it’s 6am and the chef keeps sending out extra courses for you to try 😬
Would love to return when my head is on a bit straighter.
“Named after the group of islands which ancient seafarers frequented as part of the Sino-Indonesian-Australian route, Aru touches on early techniques – fermentation, smoking, curing, preserving and fire-licked meat, vegetables and fish.”
