Papa Goose Melbourne
The new venture of acclaimed chef Neale White, formerly of Pure South at Southbank and Harvest Home at Avenel, Papa Goose aims to provide Melburnians with a casual, not-too-steep fine dining option in this lively corner of the city - with a bar attached, of course. Papa Goose sprawls over two levels on the corner of Flinders Lane and Duckboard Place, with the restaurant on the ground floor and the bar, Loose Goose, on the first floor along with two private dining rooms. Modern, airy and light, the atmosphere is approachable and friendly with warm service and relaxed approach to serious food. The menu showcases White's considerable skills and experience, with a short, confident menu composed of such mod-Oz dishes as the spiced venison with chestnut, parsnip, pomegranate, parsley, red cabbage and raisins and the potato gnocchi with Jerusalem artichokes, mushrooms, porcini dust and truffle oil.
