The Asia TOPA festival is a massive multi-venue festival of Asian theatre, visual arts, dance and discussions. Settling in for its inaugural year, Asia TOPA and Arts Centre Melbourne will be teaming up with three of Melbourne’s best chefs for three equally exciting dining experiences. From modern Chinese banquets with Lee Ho Fook's Victor Liong to Thai street food from Longsong's David Moyle and tasty bahn mi and nibbles from Pho Nom's Jerry Mai, Asia TOPA are taking dinner and a show to a whole new (and even tastier) level.

Hungry for more? Take a peek at Melbourne's best Chinese restaurants and dumplings, and get into more theatre with the best shows in February.
