With the days getting longer and the nights are getting warmer, what better way to spend an evening than watching the sky change from day to night, the city skyline light up and the best menu on offer in Braodmeadows.
City View Bistro, the dining experience at Melbourne Greyhounds – The Meadows – has released a new menu for spring. Mouth-watering 300 gram chargrilled porterhouse stakes are available in two different options; a classic surf ‘n’ turf topped with crispy tiger prawns and a chimichurri drizzle, served with fat cut chips and house salad or a not-so-traditional option served with duck fat roasted potatoes and seasonal greens, finished with a pink peppercorn jus.
After a different protein? There is pork ‘three’ ways, or pork belly salad as well as chicken schnitzel or karaage options.
Seafood options abound with flathead fillets, city view marinara tossed with spaghetti and a pan fired barramundi on seasonal greens. On the topic of greens, the roasted vegetable stack is joined by potato gnocchi as the vegetarian main options.
Start your night with eggplant chips or popcorn chicken to name a few starters and complete the experience with ice cream ’nachos’ death by chocolate, or pannacotta, just two of the new desserts that join sticky date pudding as the perfect way to finish the night.
A look over the extensive beverage list reveals a fresh rose that matches the peach tones in the city skyline as the sun sets, or if the night is feeling rich, celebrate with a good red, there are plenty to choose from.
Lastly of note the ‘chefs specials’ change weekly, to keep things fresh, especially if you have become a regular. Once again chef Steve Collins has delivered an outstanding array of options. Pair these dishes with the all-new wine list selected by the hospitality manager extraordinaire, Harrison Thackray and you will understand how one night out at City View Bistro will not be enough.
