Lunch at Committee Room by Grossi at the MCG

Partnering with Guy Grossi, Committee Room by Grossi is a new initiative by MCG’s recently appointed hospitality partner Delaware North. Is Committee Room by Grossi Melbourne’s best kept secret? For the first time, non-Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC ) members are able to enjoy this inner sanctum experience at the MCG, and at the same time, a magnificent Melbourne culinary experience by Guy Grossi.

Desserts were also top notch featuring stunning Tiramisu and Gelato.
Every dish was magnificent and resonated with Grossi flair and flawless execution. All paired with premium wines including a fabulous Reserve Italian Sangiovese.
Corporates of Melbourne (and others) have this unique opportunity of fine dining with a great view of the MCG. Not only that, but you can take advantage of parking underneath the MCG.

In my opinion one of the best dining experiences for corporates in Melbourne, bringing together old and new Melbourne perfectly.
After dining at the MCG many times over the years and experiencing the best culinary experiences it has to offer, Committee Room by Grossi brings a new level of elevated dining.

Now famous Tiramisu.
For me it was like dining at a Grossi restaurant. The Front of House Mark was with Grossi for 10 years and head chef was also trained at Grossi.

Says Guy Grossi, “It’s a fantastic setting with the backdrop being the beautiful, hallowed ground of the MCG. A couple of my favourite things on the menu are the Tortellini with pear, and just a hint of duck jus through it – and it came from an accident really. We had some left-over roast duck one day and decided to create a pasta dish out of it – and it’s been a staple ever since. It’s like eating roast duck dinner, but in beautiful tortellini – a pasta parcel – what a great package! "

And of course, if you are a sweet tooth, you can’t go past our world-famous tiramisu. It was my mum’s recipe, and we haven’t ever changed it. We even put in an extra little bit of sambuca, to make it really special, “says acclaimed chef and restaurant Guy Grossi.
