[Plan this experience]() [Explore the story]() Cost **Estimated A$55–90 per person** Time to allow **Allow around 2 hours** Place **CBD, Melbourne** 01 / The experience ### Bring a group together over shared plates. A lively Flinders Lane dining room for Southeast Asian sharing plates and a group meal in the CBD. $$ Southeast Asian Dinner · food only Make Chin Chin a lively CBD meal during your Melbourne stay. The Flinders Lane restaurant suits a table that wants to share dishes and make dinner part of the evening’s conversation. Choose it for the energy of a busy dining room and a meal together, allowing enough time for everyone to return from Melbourne Park and arrive at the same service. The restaurant opens for lunch and dinner daily from 11:00, with walk-ins welcome alongside bookings. A non-tennis lunch makes the timing easier if you are exploring the CBD. After tennis, a reservation gives the group a more useful meeting point than a plan to queue with no clear dining time. Groups of six or more must take the Feed Me menu; larger groups of twenty-one or more should contact the events team. Agree the menu format, dietary requirements and expected spend before reserving. Sunday carries a surcharge. Check the exact cancellation conditions and seating length in your confirmation, and leave room for the journey back to your hotel after a long venue day. ![Chin Chin, Australian Open]() Restaurants **Chin Chin** Australian Open In pictures ### The full gallery. 02 / The essentials ### Chin Chin: visit essentials 1. 01 Southeast Asian 2. 02 CBD 3. 03 Allow around 2 hours; confirm your seating length 04 / Before you go ### Plan your visit Choose a CBD lunch on a city day or an evening booking after everyone has cleared Melbourne Park.
