Love Goes Riverside This Valentine’s Day at 1 Hotel Melbourne

Valentine’s Day dining announced across 1 Hotel Melbourne venues

1 Hotel Melbourne has confirmed its Valentine’s Day dining programme across two Yarra River-facing venues, From Here by Mike and Crane Bar & Lounge. The hotel will deliver two separate set menu experiences, each aligned to the venue’s service style and menu structure.

From Here by Mike will present From Here, With Love, a Valentine’s Day dinner designed for shared dining. The experience centres on a multi-course menu intended for two guests, with dishes served progressively across the evening. Service begins with a glass of Taittinger Prestige Rosé NV.

The opening courses feature shared tasting plates. Guests receive freshly shucked oysters topped with blood plum granita and smoked oil. The menu also includes locally sourced beef tartare served with crisp fried potatoes, presented for sharing.

Main courses offer two options. The kitchen will serve a pork tomahawk with radicchio agrodolce and stone fruit mustard, or red mullet paired with fregola and crustacean bisque. Both mains arrive as shared dishes for two guests.

Dessert concludes the experience with Love Indulgence. This final course combines white chocolate, berry compote, white strawberries and truffle, finished with heart-shaped macarons and presented as a shared dessert.
