Modu Bar + Kitchen: Where Carnivore Meets Culinary Art
Nestled in the heart of Perth, Modu Bar + Kitchen is rewriting the rules of Asian fusion dining, offering a carnivore's dream that transports diners straight to the vibrant streets of 1920s Shanghai.
The moment you step inside, the restaurant's atmospheric homage to early 20th-century oriental elegance becomes apparent. Vintage-inspired decor meets contemporary culinary innovation, creating a dining experience that is both nostalgic and cutting-edge.
A Protein Lover's Paradise
Chef's commitment to premium meat selections is immediately evident. The menu reads like a love letter to protein enthusiasts, featuring standout dishes that elevate simple ingredients to extraordinary heights. The 400g Charred Lamb Neck stands as a testament to the kitchen's prowess – a massive cut infused with lemongrass and chilli, promising a flavour journey that begins with the first bite.
Equally impressive is the Angus Sirloin, a masterpiece that marries coffee caramel glaze with delicate garlic confit. Each dish tells a story – the Char-siew Pork Belly, featuring Berkshire black pork with a provocative vegemite and honey glaze, challenges diners' expectations and rewards them with complex, layered flavours.
Beyond the Plate
Modu isn't just about food – it's an experience. Live music fills the space Thursday through Saturday, transforming the restaurant from a dining venue to a vibrant social hub. The industrial-chic atmosphere provides the perfect backdrop for everything from casual drinks to intimate date nights.
