Where we host in Melbourne
Diesel Bar & Eatery, 202 Little Lonsdale Street
Our Melbourne night runs here every Wednesday from 6:00 pm. One detail worth knowing before you set out: the entrance is on Little Lonsdale Street only. You cannot come through from Melbourne Central, and people regularly lose ten minutes finding that out the hard way. It is a short walk from both Melbourne Central and Flagstaff stations.
Hidden café salons
Melbourne’s laneways shelter tranquil cafés where conversation can flow. We reserve private rooms, provide bilingual hosts, and showcase Asian fusion desserts that match the Comfort and Romance theme.
Signature experiences you will love
Meet and taste flights
Guests sample regional teas or boutique wines while guided conversation cards help break the ice. Smart casual outfits keep the mood stylish yet relaxed.
Creative workshops
Calligraphy, floral art, or dumpling design sessions let guests bond through shared craft. We still pause contact exchange during the event to protect fairness and comfort.
Supper clubs with a twist
Multi-course dinners highlight Asian-Australian chefs. Between courses, our hosts spotlight the tagline “Connecting hearts across Asian cultures” to remind everyone why they are there.
Prepare for your first Melbourne gathering
Embrace smart casual elegance
Think tailored coats, silk scarves, and polished loafers—pieces that feel comfortable for a full evening but still photograph beautifully.
Plan mindful travel
Many venues sit near tram lines or Flinders Street Station. Arriving a little early gives you time to breathe and settle.
Honour the comfort principle
Leave business cards tucked away. Our team only shares contact details after the event when a mutual match is recorded.
Reserve your invitation
Join our Melbourne waitlist to hear about launch dates first. When you book, our concierge will send outfit guidance, arrival notes, and gentle conversation starters so you can feel calm and confident.
