Melbourne: Where to Eat: Classics: Grossi Florentino

Grossi Florentino

A popular venue for the love-struck men of Melbourne to propose to their paramours, this Italian fine-dining establishment oozes romance and old-world charm. The dining room is grand (perfect for pronouncements of any kind), with chandeliers, wood paneling and murals supplying the requisite Italianate sense of drama. The food is similarly impressive, and on any given day you can see the who’s who of Melbourne making deals over pot-roasted pigeon and delicate rock lobster.
