A Sunday In Venice

  • Palermo 401 Little Bourke Street Melbourne, VIC, 3000 Australia (map)

On Sunday 2nd August, step into the romance and splendour of Venice for an unforgettable long lunch inspired by the magic of Carnevale di Venezia. 

Leaning into its Italian influence, Palermo will be adorned with rich fabrics, elegant Venetian masks and old-world charm, while its signature asado firepit and Parrilla grill remains in full flame. You'll be welcomed with an arrival cocktail before settling in for a masterfully curated five-course feast by Head Chef Jack Tildesley. 

Celebrating the timeless flavours and indulgence of Venice, each course invites you to slow down, linger a little longer, and lose yourself in an afternoon of exceptional food, warmth and la dolce vita.
