So the saying goes, the best chefs enjoy nurturing people – offering care and sustenance to make the body strong and the heart warm. In response to the COVID-19 crisis, many Melbourne restaurants are this week offering non-contact home delivery services, supplying pasta sauces, take-home lasagne, slow cooked ribs, Humpty Doo barramundi, discounted wine and more.
in case you may have forgotten, the world still is indeed your oyster – and we can buy electronically! As the supermarket shelves this week appear all but emptied, we recommend a decent bottle of plonk (for the anti oxidants), a good movie and some fine bites to share at home with your loved ones. Jump on the phone or web and support your local community establishment. They need your care also!
Here are just a handful of restaurant offerings announced this week:
