Set across three floors of impeccably styled, intimate dining spaces, the newest (and most hyped) venture of Melbourne’s Lucas Group (Chin Chin, Kong) is making serious waves in a city renowned for its saturated culinary landscape. From the luxurious top floor comprising a private dining area, twelve-seat chef’s table and Chablis Bar, to the more accessible sushi bar on the ground floor, Kisumé is a triumph in modern Japanese cuisine. Taking traditional concepts and marrying them with a contemporary, Australian flair, Chris Lucas has assembled an impressive team (including sommelier Jonathan Ross from Eleven Madison) to create an experience that is utterly unique and profoundly impressive.
