BANG Launches Bangin’ Brunch with Chandon: A Playful Twist On Brunch

Kickstart The Weekend At The Fitzroy Favourite With Food, Fizz and Live DJs

Fitzroy’s Thai-inspired dining venue BANG at The StandardX Melbourne has launched its new Bangin’ Brunch with Chandon — a playful twist on brunch that brings together the punchy, vibrant flavours of Thai street food perfectly paired with the refreshing sparkle of Chandon Garden Spritz.

Every Saturday from 11 AM – 3 PM, guests can start their weekend with a ‘BANG’, and indulge in the restaurant’s three-course brunch menu, matched with a bottle of Chandon’s Garden Spritz for two. BANG’s brunch sessions will be soundtracked by a lineup of local Melbourne DJs to keep the energy pumping and spirits high. Priced from $66 per person, Executive Chef Justin Dingle-Garciyya’s menu features an array of traditional and modern Thai dishes with highlights including: 

To start:

  • Prawn Har Gao breakfast dumplings
  • Lemongrass chicken hibachi skewers served with a fresh and spicy sambal oelek
  • Crispy Port Philip calamari with a yuzu and coriander dressing

To follow: 

  • BANG’s Thai answer to the Aussie ‘smash-hit’ – coconut fried eggs served with smashed avocado on sourdough from Dench 
  • Drunken noodles with turmeric chicken and shrimp, served with crispy shallots, ginger and chilli
  • BANG’s brunch sanga; a soft potato bun filled with melt-in-the-mouth pork neck, avocado and caramelised onions, topped with a crispy fried egg and coriander and served with fries

To finish: 

  • BANG’s signature banana roti served with home-made vanilla bean ice cream
  • Marsala tea brulée – BANG’s twist on the much-loved French classic
  • A salted caramel, coconut and popcorn sundae – an elevated version of the nostalgic childhood favourite

For an additional $22, diners can upgrade their brunch experience, adding half a dozen oysters to the feast and replacing the Garden Spritz with a bottle of Chandon Brut for two. Whether you’re looking to kickstart the weekend with a BANG, or are an avid bruncher, Bangin’ Brunch with Chandon offers the perfect north-side setting for food, fizz and DJs on the decks.

Bookings can be made via OpenTable

BANG’s brunch offers two packages: 

  • Three course menu with a bottle of Chandon Garden Spritz between two $66pp 
  • Three course menu with a bottle of Chandon Brut and 1/2 dozen oysters between two $88pp
