Paddock to plate dining experience launched at Wyndham Hotel Melbourne
A unique dining experience has launched at Wyndham Hotel Melbourne, with the opening of Little Billy, a paddock to plate style restaurant that will showcase local produce.
Little Billy is the second restaurant to open in Melbourne as part of the Billy Group of restaurants and embraces the paddock to plate concept, which aims to use produce with low food miles, meaning the environment endures as little pollution as possible when food is transported.
The restaurant will feature an ever-changing menu to take advantage of the freshest seasonal produce on offer locally, create a healthy dining experience and dishes that embraces rustic home-style cooking.
Little Billy will be located on the ground floor of Wyndham Hotel Melbourne in the William building and will complete the dining and retail experience for guests and visitors to the hotel.
The dining precinct in William Street, currently features a selection of eateries including Vietnamese restaurant Banoi, Schmucks Bagels and Wrap it Up.
Hotel Manager Kate Costello said Little Billy was a welcome addition to the hotel’s offerings, which also includes a rooftop swimming pool and barbecue area, state-of-the-art gymnasium and library.
“Little Billy is the perfect fit for Wyndham Hotel Melbourne. Just like the hotel it embraces the unique and vibrant Melbourne culture and has a key focus on providing exceptional experiences for its guests,” Kate said.
The restaurant also represents the history of its namesake William Bourke, affectionately known as Billy, who was the son of English immigrants searching for a new life and land in Australia. An upside-down tractor features in the restaurant, which links to the story of Billy, who would often get into trouble with his dad for joyriding on their tractor.
