Dear Richmond,This little restaurant is our love letter to food. It's our happy little place, where we get to live the joy of feeding people everyday. We all grew up in spaces that equated food with love, just like this place. Everything we have done here is deliberate, from the art on the walls to the produce we use. We've made a point of sourcing ingredients from some of the best suppliers in the state, making sure that our menu reflects what's in season. For us, this place is about experience: we try our best to make you feel both at home and 'out for something special'. Every plate that comes back wiped clean by someone who just couldn't get enough is a 'the hard work is worth it' moment for us. Matty & Tee From Love Letter, with love x

Suzie Q was unapologetically rebellious, alluring and ahead of her time. Bathed in the red glow of oriental charm, her underground chinese restaurant was a well-kept secret by those in the know during the 80’s in downtown San Francisco; a hidden gem drawing people in from across the city with her timeless dishes and unforgettable ambiance. Suzie Q embodies the indulgence of this rich legacy, re-imagined through a modern lens and coupled with retro oriental charm, classic chinese fare and contemporary cocktails.

• Wine Bar • Armadale

Toorak Cellars is equal parts bottle shop and wine bar, located just opposite Toorak station on Beatty Avenue in Armadale. Our aim is simple: to source, acquire and serve the best wines we can find at any given price point, from Australia and around the world.We believe strongly in the idea that wine should taste like fruit and minerals instead of oak and alcohol. The wines we serve should reflect with great clarity the soil from which they were grown, and the four seasons that passed through that vineyard during a specific vintage.We serve a constantly changing twenty wines by-the-glass, or you can open any bottle straight off the shelf. We don't have a kitchen, but if you're hungry we do have some creative ways of feeding you.Great wine is for everyone, and everyone is welcome. See you soon at the Cellars!

    We opted for the $49 Feed Me meal, which offered 2 large dishes, 2 small dishes and a side. The standout options were undoubtedly the duck and the chicken dumplings. The duck was particularly memorable, with its tender flesh perfectly balanced by a rich sauce that added a depth of flavor without overpowering the natural taste of the meat. The smoky undertones of the duck complemented the sauce beautifully. The chicken dumplings, coated with a rich and smooth peanut chili sauce, were another highlight. This creamy sauce infused the dumplings with a deep, velvety texture and a subtle kick of spice, elevating the dish to new heights. The restaurant's high ceilings and spacious layout contributed to a pleasant ambiance, creating a comfortable dining environment. The service was satisfactory, with the staff being generally helpful throughout our meal. Overall, the experience was enjoyable, and the culinary highlights made it a worthwhile visit

    Ambience is amazing the way the whole restaurant layout has been done is next to none. Service was 10/10 and the food is on the pricy side but worth it. Will be coming back again to try the different options such as the chefs special menu or the sushi. Overall experience was amazing.
