LIFE’ S A DISH
With a tip of the chef’s hat to the remarkable Buon Ricordo concept that began in Northern Italy in 1964, Bendigo’s premier restaurants offer collectable plates as a souvenir of a memorable, regional meal, as part of an initiative called “Life’s a Dish”.

An emerging abundance of fresh local produce has awakened the senses in Bendigo.
Inventive chefs in quality restaurants, lane way cafés and wine bars across the city have seized this enthusiasm and are adding their flair to the new riches of this thriving city. Dining in Bendigo can range from contemporary and relaxed cafés, to luxurious fine dining.
Bendigo’s glorious Mediterranean-type weather makes alfresco dining by day or night a true highlight. And what food experience would be complete without wine! From rich, ripe reds to elegant whites, the wines from Bendigo’s goldbearing soils are a wine lover’s treasure.
A rich Chinese heritage from the gold rush has left Bendigo with a legacy of Chinese cuisine. Visit one of Australia’s oldest Chinese restaurants, Toi Shan, or choose from many other superb Chinese dining experiences. With so many other varied cuisines including Thai, Indian, Mexican and Italian, Bendigo has something to tempt all tastes!
Whether it’s for team building or leisure, why not have a truly boutique experience at one of more than 30 cellar doors only a few minutes drive from Bendigo. With many still operated by the families that founded them, our local wineries offer a unique opportunity to go behind the scenes with skilled winemakers to see Bendigo’s ‘Liquid Gold’ first hand.
