Source Dining

Top choice in Victoria


One of central Victoria's best restaurants, this fine place has a menu that changes with the seasons and dish descriptions that read like a culinary short story about regional produce and carefully conceived taste combinations.

Locals' night (Thursday) features $49 mains with a dessert and a glass of wine. Source also has a Victorian-era apartment, Circa 1860 (rooms $200). Its new restaurant in Bendigo, Goldmines Hotel, is one to keep an eye on.
