Born from a Melbourne sunset, our pop-up restaurant, Shelanous, evolved into a multi-sensory journey, blending Melbourne’s seasons into each dish. As we transitioned to “Shelanous”, we retained the essence of sharing, embodied in “nous,” meaning “our” or “us” in Hebrew and French.

WOW WOW WOW What a wonderful visual, audible, olfactory mind blowing experience. The imagination displayed not just on a plate but in the whole room is wondrous. Chef Rony and his magnificent team continually delighted us with their wizardry and theatrics. Do yourself a favour, make a booking and see, hear, smell and feel what this phenomenal dining experience is all about.

“Every second of the experience felt magical, and each course brought something new and unforgettable. The flavors were beyond anything I’d tasted before—rich, vibrant, and carefully crafted. I can still remember the textures, the delicate aromas, and the way each bite seemed to tell its own story. It was more than just a meal; it was a journey of flavors that left a lasting impression on me. This was a truly special experience, and I can’t wait to return and experience it all over again.”
