Spoiled by lack of choice: the restaurant tasting menu takes off post-COVID

Spoiled by lack of choice: the restaurant tasting menu takes off post-COVID David Matthews Photo: Joe Armao Neil Perry called it first. And if not first, at least loudest, stating with the closure of his original Rockpool in Sydney five years ago that hours-long, course-by-course tasting menus were done.  A la carte dining was where it was at, he said, opening Eleven Bridge with a menu where (gasp) guests got to choose what they ate, then pay for it. Eleven Bridge didn t last, but where Perry led others followed.  Take a spin around the country s biggest restaurant openings of the past 18 months, and a la carte is the name of the game: Woodcut at the Crown; Gimlet at Cavendish House; Mimi s by Merivale; the upcoming Society by the Lucas Group. 

New data reveals which Australian capitals have the best (and worst) restaurant tippers

New data reveals which Australian capitals have the best (and worst) restaurant tippers Callan Boys Photo: Simon Schluter Like it or loathe it, tipping has been a part of Australian restaurant culture for decades. Traditionally reserved for service at finer-dining establishments, a gratuity is now being left at more casual eateries, largely thanks to the growth of in-venue ordering technology. Developers for web-based platform Me&u – which works by diners scanning a QR code with their phone to order and pay with an interactive menu – have reported an eightfold increase in gratuity nationwide after enhancing tipping capability in June. Meanwhile, HungryHungry online ordering platform – used by food and drink vendors at outdoor events and large venues such as the Melbourne Cricket Ground – has seen the value of tips increase by 13 per cent since June.
