Best Asian Food Restaurants in Frankston

"The scene: Inspired by unusual flavour combinations that surprise and charm the palate, Ezard has been serving Australian freestyle cuisine for over 17 years, tucked away in the basement of the Adelphi Hotel, along one of the city’s most eclectic streets. The whitewashed walls, crisp linen tablecloths and courteous staff all point to a fine dining restaurant, but the cuisine is a lot more exciting and fun than you might expect from such an elegant dining venue. Using only the finest local and seasonal produce, Teage Ezard creates a selection of tantalising menus from weekday express lunches and pre-theatre dinners to sophisticated a la carte offerings and an eight-course tasting menu with complementary wines to match."

"Opened in 2006 by restaurateur Teage Ezard, Gingerboy is the younger, sprightlier sibling to the Australian freestyle restaurant EZARD in Flinders Lane. Steering towards hawker-style street food with a modern-Australian twist, Gingerboy delivers seasonal menus that pack a punch. Must-try meals include the son-in-law eggs, twice-cooked pork belly with plum and ginger relish and green apple slaw, and the salt and pepper chicken spare rib."

"The scene: Set in the heart of Melbourne’s most dynamic culinary precinct, Coda has established itself as a lively and innovative addition to the city’s best fine dining restaurants. Best known for its high-octane energy which billows out the doorway and enticing passers-by to enter, this eatery flaunts a simple, strikingly modern interior, with exposed lightbulbs, wire mesh screens and aluminium-framed windows. The cuisine here is just as contemporary and diverse as the surroundings, with a broad selection of French-Vietnamese plates and a handful of Australian dishes on the menu."

"Style / Ambiance: As international as Melbourne itself, Adam d’Sylva’s smart bistro has an eclectic menu that ranges from rabbit rillettes with sourdough, to tender roast duck in tamarind-scented yellow curry. The bustling bar area serves wines by the glass and shareable small plates. The minimalistic dining room has artfully distressed walls, wire and mesh light fixtures and chic aluminum window treatments designed by Melbourne studio Projects of Imagination."

"This little street kitchen seamlessly churns sensational fodder behind RMIT’s city campus. For those with a fear of meat, think of barbecue pork bao, chicken bao, and even a shiitake and tofu bao. Wonderbao is great for a lunch hit or for a quick cure to your three-thirty-itis cup of homemade soy milk."

"Nothing, especially when the vegetarian options are as good as those for meateaters. Grab one filled with fried silky tofu, coriander and crushed peanuts and your day will be complete. Did we mention they’re also a bargain at less than three bucks a bun."

"At Aru, chef Khanh Nguyen's is effortlessly blending Southeast Asian flavours, native Australian ingredients and ancient techniques. And while there are unexpectedly playful riffs on classics – like banh mi, Peking duck and mi goreng – they never feel gimmicky, just modernised and expertly refined. 268 Little Collins Street,Melbourne"

"Bursting on the burger-scene in 2017, this little burger shop is famous for its enormous Burgers. And, it would appear as though Balwyn Canteen is trying to truly differentiate itself from the burger pack."

"Endeavoring to preserve and promote ‘the artistic and cultural heritage of ancient and modern Greece’, the Hellenic Museum holds a vast collection of artifacts. See Cypriot pottery, cast ancient Greek statues, and check out Bill Henson’s photographic installation ONEIROI.Starting in 2014, for 10 years the Hellenic Museum will also house a priceless collection of antiquities from the Benaki Museum, Athens, showcasing 8,000 years of Greek civilisation to Melbourne."

"Going back even further in time, several millennia in fact, there’s the Hellenic Museum, which is house in the original Royal Mint building. Many of the pieces in the permanent exhibition are from ancient times – marble statues and byzantine paintings, for examples. A partnership with Greece’s Benaki Museum means there are a number of impressive antiquities here."

"Buxton Contemporary is the result of a landmark gift from renowned art collector Michael Buxton, who in 2014 donated 350 major Australian artworks to form a new gallery.

The gallery’s acquisitions tend to follow a smaller number of artists in depth and over time, building a rich insight into their changing practice."

"The market consists of 15 car boot stalls, 27 standard stalls, 4 food stalls, a kids craft area, and space for musicians and performers."
