There’s no such thing as a “best” restaurant. We know. But every year Melbourne sees new openings that feel like gifts to the city and are worth celebrating with extreme fanfare and impossible-to-live-up-to words like “best”. This year was no exception. From a next-gen destination diner to a 10-day-old Fitzroy gem for Indian comfort food and a dreamy new Abbotsford Convent spot, here are 10 of our favourite new restaurants.
