Osteria La Passione – Restaurant South East Melbourne, Australia

In Italian, an “osteria” is a typical inexpensive restaurant that does humble and delicious food. Osteria La Passione takes the idea of a traditional osteria but with a little more passion. You pay a little more and you get much more, lovingly made, refined and sophisticated dishes. Inside the atmosphere is intimate and cosy with a hint of elegance that elevates your dining experience. The emphasis here is on seasonal produce, so their degustation menu varies not just week-to-week but daily. No menu here, just 3/6/9 courses of the chef’s choice that night. Resonating notes include rustic homemade breads and sizzling continental sausages, creamy pastas and melt-in-your-mouth roasts. The most favoured dish is the 9 course degustation menu with mains being Sardines in broth with chicory or Beef and Chicken with Salsa Verde or Pork Belly with Tuscan Cabbage, depending on the Chef’s choice!
