Reine and La Rue
In the heart of Melbourne, Reine & La Rue reawakens a historic Gothic icon—the former Stock Exchange building—with new life and French flair. This artwork reflects the venue's remarkable blend of architectural majesty and contemporary dining. Towering stone columns, vaulted ceilings, and stained-glass windows set the stage for a culinary experience rooted in tradition, yet boldly modern. At Reine, fine French dishes meet the fire and finesse of modern technique, where wood-grilled seafood, dry-aged meats, and local produce sing with restrained elegance. Just beyond the grandeur, La Rue offers a contrast—intimate, shadowed, and tailored—a hidden wine bar for quiet conversation and curated bottles. Together, they represent a study in contrasts: public and private, classic and cutting-edge. This piece is a tribute to Reine & La Rue’s daring transformation—where Melbourne’s past becomes the canvas for a dining experience that is unapologetically present.
