Indian Villa Rye

From the bustling streets of Punjab to the breezy shores of the Mornington Peninsula, Indian Villa is more than a restaurant. It’s a story of two friends, Harry and Amid, who brought with them not only their culinary skill but also the spirit of hospitality deeply woven into Indian culture. With two restaurants — one in Dromana and one in Rye — they’ve created places where heritage, flavour, and community come together in every shared meal.

The Kitchen

For the past few years, whenever we’ve travelled the long sweep of Point Nepean Road — which is often — one little shopfront has always hummed out to us. A flicker of light, a kind of beacon in the sea. Blink and you’ll miss it — a dark corner store wedged between Rosebud, Capel Sound and Rye — but once you’ve noticed it, you can’t unsee it.

SPANISH WINE DINNER at South Beach Project

The Spainards pride themselves on seasonal produce and regional specialties. From North to South, Asturias to Andalusia, every region offers their own unique flavours, cuisines and ingredients. Sun drenched Meditteranean flavours mixed with brilliant wines from across the country presented by our very own David Weill and our mate Nick Dodds. Get your tickets quick folks as this one will definitely be a sellout!

An Evening With Clovis Taittinger

Usually, when we celebrate, we all likely have one thing in common: Champagne - the universal drink of celebration. What's in a name? In the case of Tattinger (pronounced Tet-ahn-zhay), quite a lot to many who enjoy a glass or two of the nearly 300-year-old Champaign house's sparkling wine.
