Meat Free Monday

Over the years there has been a push to get the public to change their diets with a small incremental step of having one day each week as meat free, this has been branded by the powers to be as “Meat-free Mondays”.

Here at Patsy's we thought that a way to help with this cultural shift would be to do a series of dinners, that celebrate vegetable based cuisine and piggy-back this “Meat-free-Monday” onto the tradition of Monday being the night that our hospitality industry friends go out and dine together.

We are excited to bring some of Melbournes best and brightest chef's together to share their take on what meat-free dining can be. As part of our mailing list we are allowing you the chance to secure a ticket to our first dinner which is on the 10th of July.

For the first co-laboration dinner we are hosting

Cam Tay Yap of Amaru -  Many people may have heard of Cam as he was featured in this years 30 under 30 dinner as part of the food and wine festival. However for those that don't, after starting at Attica at 17 years old he stayed there for over four years. Using the yearly Christmas holiday to travel and stage around the world, he finally left Attica to travel but found himself back in Melbourne after eating his way through his savings. Eventually, he found his way into Amaru, and under the guidance of Clinton McIver, is now head chef, leading the team to create a dining experience that is seasonal, sustainable, unique and most importantly, delicious. 

Joining us will also be Kim Sangsoo, Head Chef of James in South Melbourne where he is bringing a uniquely Korean perspective onto the Australian native ingredients that he has encountered in Melbourne. He has been winning accolades with this food including a Chef's Hat in the Good food guide this year, he might not have a huge profile in the industry yet, however this guy is one to watch and we are so excited that he is going to be sharing his take on vegetable based cuisine with our guests.

Best vegetarian

We're not in the business of tooting our own horn but very happy for someone else to do it... Well respected hospitality publication TimeOut Melbourne has made a list of The Best Restaurants for Vegetarians in Melbourne and named us in top spot.

Jayden head Chef

Jayden Park (ex Vue de Monde) joined the Patsy's team as Head Chef in his first lead role in April. The stars (and core values) aligned when Jayden and Dan Lidgard (Executive Chef Patsy's and Donna Maria) concocted a plan to bring Jayden on board. Buddies from their Attica days in 2015, Jayden's passion for provenance and country upbringing uniquely qualify him to take on the role. 

A childhood spent foraging, growing and cooking his own produce means Jayden understands our tether to the seasons and how to make them triumph on the plate. We are loving what he and Dan are doing with the autumn menu. Don't take our word for it though, come and try it for yourself.

Open for lunch and dinner, from noon until late, seven days a week. Book through opentable.com

Our Garden

The backbone of many a dish, these vegetables are on their way to serve their final purpose; shining on your plates. Starting as seeds, going through propogation, planting, growing, harvesting and now mise en plus for service, it's been a wild ride. Look out for them on menu at Patsys and check out our Instagram profile here…

Apero Hour

Knock off twice as hard with half price cocktails from 5pm-6pm. Our WHOLE cocktail menu is included, making this a perfect opportunity to try something a little off the wall.

There are snacks too. A VERY happy hour indeed.

Feel free to just pop in or even if you are organised book a table online

Lunch

** Sunday Lunch

FACT: The weekend feels longer when a Sunday lunch is involved.

ANOTHER FACT: Living consciously and enjoying oneself are no longer mutually exclusive.

We offer delicious food, wine and cocktails AND make relentless efforts to minimise produce miles and engage with likeminded suppliers.

We're open every day for lunch, dinner and drinks, but we can't help but admit that the produce rolling in at the moment is really lending itself to SUNDAY LUNCH. Extend your weekend with us.

Great wine list

Like to know what you're sipping and where it came from? Same.
Here's what our Wine Director, Seb Zotti, has to say about his list at Patsy's.

"The Patsy's list prioritises sustainable agriculture. Preference is given to no-till/minimal till/organic viticultural practices. Each chosen wine celebrates an approach to farming that views the relationship between farmer, community and land as custodial. Everything you can drink at Patsy's is vegan and seasonally transformative. A highlight to our loyal regulars, no two visits are the same."

Tasty chef

Dan Lidgard, pictured t with one of our Directors Clinton Trevisi, has come across to Patsy's in a new Executive Chef role. He has been Head Chef at our sister restaurant Donna Maria in Flinders for some time and will now direct both kitchens.

Skilled and innovative, Dan has cut his teeth in some of the finest kitchens around, including: Attica, Stokehouse and Pt Leo Estate. He was also a finalist in the Josephine Pignolet Australian Young Chef of the Year 2019.

We are thrilled to welcome Dan to the Patsy's team and can't wait to see what he does with our offering.
