Restaurant & Bar Awards 2023

50 | LUXlife Magazine - Restaurant & Bar Awards 2023 Best South East Asian Restaurant 2023 - Melbourne (The Salted Egg) South East Asian cuisine is experimental, vivid and bombastic – and The Salted Egg has endeavoured to capture all of that spirit within the walls of its restaurant. Following its well-deserved success in the Restaurant and Bar Awards, LUXlife decided to take a closer look to find out more. There’s something so enticing about The Salted Egg from the outset. Something that pulls patrons in. By all regards, this restaurant dances to the beat of its own drum, delighting in exploration and taste fusions that are simply not available anywhere else. It’s a place of creativity, and you can imagine the kitchen using its ingredients to paint a rich tapestry of flavours, textures and colours. This is creativity incarnate, with experts leading the way in defining an almost post-modern approach to hospitality and gastronomy. A place that needs to be experienced to be believed. There’s nothing usual or expected here, only the new and the bold. In its own words, The Salted Egg will “transport you to another world, a destination for those with a curious appetite and a desire for culinary adventure…..not just a place to dine, but a place where ideas are hatched.” It would be easy to put this proclamation aside as mere marketing, but the restaurant delivers on what it promises, and indeed exceeds expectations for many that dare to wonder and explore. Curiosity, in this case, is richly rewarded. “If you have a taste for discovery, Salted Egg will stimulate and surprise all the senses.” The presentation of the restaurant and its menu is contemporary, clean, modern. Combining colours and flavours in ways which keep the palette guessing, guiding it on a journey through possibility and promise. The menu is underpinned by Thai cuisine, which itself is already free with its flavour combinations, but dialled up to eleven, pushing the boundaries on culinary paradigms. All in all, it’s a place all foodies should experience, well worth the trip for anyone looking to experience new, exciting, and impactful taste adventures. The merits of The Salted Egg distinguish it from so many other enterprises that promise much of the same but ultimately fail to meet expectations. This restaurant has the talent and vision to continue its creative journey to ever greater heights, with a future only dictated to greater achievements and accolades.
