About

Part memoir, part recipe book, part decadent scrapbook – Entrecôte is ten years of sass, soufflés and steak frites. Join Jason M Jones - restaurateur, host, and self-confessed “introverted extrovert” - at Avenue Bookstore, Albert Park for an intimate evening celebrating the release of his book - Entrecôte, Depuis 2015.

As Entrecôte Melbourne celebrates ten glittering years, restaurateur and 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 at Avenue Bookstore, Albert Park, Jones will share an entrée of the full story; from childhood memories as a resident pianist at just aged 11 in a country ballroom to the infamous Steak Frites on Rue du Greville.

With a glass of wine in hand and a morsel or two from Entrecôte to accompany the conversation, this promises to be an evening of warmth, laughter and reflection. The conversation will be followed by a signing.

Jason M Jones grew up in Maffra, Gippsland, where his first-ever job was ‘resident pianist’ at age 11. He opened his first restaurant at age 17, and has since opened another 27 eateries, including restaurants, cafes, and even a fish and chip shop. “After ten amazing, chaotic, joy-filled years of Entrecôte,” he writes, “I finally felt it was time to tell the Entrecôte story.”
