Overwhelm your taste buds as a kaleidoscope of fusion flavours come together on the palate at Mint & Co Restaurant on University Street in Carlton. The brainchild of a group of friends with diverse ethnic backgrounds but a common love of cultural and culinary discovery, escape Melbourne for a little while in a Dubai-style Arabic courtyard at this Middle Eastern restaurant, or dine indoors among an eclectic mix of authentic accents. Ornate archways, table lamps and vibrant lighting set the scene for delving into starters like lightly fried chicken wings, coated in a secret family spice marinade and Himalayan pink salt. For a memorable main, try Baba's tender char-grilled lamb chops lovingly marinated and served on a bed of rice, or mashed potato with garlic, mint and cucumber yoghurt dip.
