Entrecôte - Jason M Jones book

As Entrecôte Melbourne celebrates 10 glittering years, restaurateur and now author Jason M Jones invites readers behind the scenes of one of the city’s most beloved brasseries. What began as a cheeky pop-up on Domain Road grew into a Melbourne institution – where champagne before 9 am is perfectly normal and steak frites with bottomless fries are a rite of passage.

Now settled on Greville Street in Prahran, Entrecôte is more than a restaurant. It’s a mood, a theatre, a little bit naughty – and in these pages, Jones shares the whole story. From childhood memories in Gippsland to the chaos and triumphs of building a brasserie with its own culture and heart, Entrecôte: Depuis 2015 is both memoir and love letter.

Alongside the stories come recipes that have defined a decade: French Onion Soup, Escargots, Crème Brûlée, the perfect medium-rare steak and, for the first time ever, the closely guarded secret of Entrecôte’s famed Secret Herb Butter Sauce.

Playful, generous and unapologetically beautiful, Entrecôte: Depuis 2015 is a celebration of hospitality as an art form, of food as pure joy, and of how a childhood well lived can inspire a brasserie that defines a city.
