Obelix & Co

Tucked into Fitzroy North, Obelix & Co is an absolute *tour de force* of experimental dining. Forget the standard grocery store label—this family-run outfit operates as a fiercely creative French-Asian fusion kitchen championing hyper-local, sustainable produce. Discerning Melbourne gourmands make serious detours for Chef Lachie’s audacious plates. Think wild boar sausage rolls for a quick, savory fix, or settle in for a masterclass in texture: lush parfait, labneh arancini, and a goat cheese fondant that commands absolute attention. Co-owner Kristy works the floor with unmatched warmth, guiding guests through an ever-evolving menu paired perfectly with thoughtfully selected, juicy *vins de soif*. A roaring winter fire. Impeccable filter coffee. Serious culinary chops without a single ounce of pretension.
