Messer (German for “knife”) is the newest restaurant to open on the Northside of town in Fitzroy. As you know by now, when we find a good thing we just have to share it with our fellow Northsiders.

At Messer you can expect a European approach cooking. Their menu revolves around the fresh local produce that’s coming onto their doorstep.

If you love seafood like we do the ‘Clams a la plancha’ is to die for (first photo) but we’ve also heard amazing things about their spit-roasted pork knuckles with coleslaw & their smoked trout sandwich. Also, they do a starter called “flammkuchen” – basically it’s woodfired flatbread deliciousness that you would be lining up for if you went to a Foodie Market in Germany. Just incredible.

Open Monday to Saturday 11am-11pm (with 3 course lunches for $39) & they’re located on 116 Gertrude Street, Fitzroy.

Check out their website HERE or give them a buzz on 9419 0035

Love the RH Brunswick Team Xx
