Good Beer Week hits Melbourne from May 18th to May 26th with a wide range of events designed to promote Victoria’s spectacular range of craft beers, and Fitzrovia has teamed up with our good friends at Stefano’s Mildura Brewery to bring you two totally different but equally fun events!

VICTORIAN SHELLFISH & CRUSTACEA LONG TABLE DINNER
21st May 7pm $95 per seat
Victoria is blessed to be surrounded by some of the purest waters in the world, giving us an abundance of fresh shellfish and crustacea. What better way to celebrate this, than by cracking shells and breaking bread with Fitzrovia and The Mildura Brewery?! We invite you to a long table dinner of the finest Victorian shellfish and crustacea, piled high on shared platters and matched to Mildura Brewery’s range of craft beers. Add to the mix Mildura Brewery’s head brewer Rod Williams-a judge at the 2012 RASV Australian International Beer Awards, and we guarantee a fantastic indulgent night for all. Seats are limited and selling fast CLICK HERE for full details and booking.

SUNDAY SPIT ROAST WITH MILDURA BREWERY
Sunday 19th May from 4.30pm $15
Yeeeehhaaaa!! Fitzrovia and The Mildura Brewery are gettin’ together for a good old fashioned hog roast, and you’re all invited! Come on down for a lively afternoon in the sun, the whole range of Mildura craft beers and a good suckling pig spit, with a live country music and give-aways from Mildura Brewery to top it off! An afternoon the whole family can enjoy.

“Fitzrovia carries all the appeal of St Kilda neighbourly funk with a touch of River Café class thrown into the mix. It’s stylish and sleek, with a good assortment of fresh, clean dishes sourced from fine-estate Victorian suppliers. The staff are professional and helpful (which seems to be a given in this new hub of Fitzroy Street foodville) and the fit-out is fresh and appealing.”

Huge thanks to Gill and the team at Australian Herb & Fruit Supplies for taking us on an early morning tour of Footscray Market. The atmosphere reminds me of the night markets in Bangkok; full of bustle and urgency – Don’t think Ive ever seen such a traffic jam of forklifts before! Loads of brilliant produce, and heaps of fresh ideas for our new spring menus! Stay tuned!
