Lunch

Steer Dining Room has become one of a handful of Australian restaurants to serve genuine Kobe beef, the most sought-after kind of Wagyu. The delicate meat (from Japan’s Hyogo prefecture) stands out for its high marbled fat content, which causes it to melt at low temperatures. Awarded 29th in the World’s Best Steaks for 2026 (the highest ranking awarded to a Melbourne venue), the awards write-up states, “Steer Dining Room is not about spectacle; it is about mastery. Through its commitment to sourcing, its reverence for wagyu and its measured execution, it has secured its place as an essential institution for those who see steak not merely as a meal, but as a craft.” Read more here: STEER DINING ROOM | Worldbeststeaks 2026 I have booked for 6 Fine Diners to enjoy the Signature Wagyu Degustation - 6 courses at $325 per person - for dinner from 6.15pm on Friday 3 July. You can view the menu here and it looks simply mouthwatering: https://www.steerdiningroom.com.au/_files/ugd/16cb0b_e63265bb4f3e41319004584541a580e3.pdf 

Join the waitlist to express interest. Once I have names in the waitlist, I’ll send you a ‘Meetup Message’ to confirm you have a spot and how to pay. You’ll need to send me $100 to secure your place (equivalent to the cancellation fee - this will be deducted from your bill when we settle up). Once paid I’ll move you from the waitlist to ‘Attending’. As these are small group events, there are often more Fine Diners interested than there are seats available. My approach to hosting an event is to share seats around amongst members of the group in as fair a manner as I can, including mixing Fine Diners regulars with newcomers. Please be respectful if there are events when you miss out on a seat. I will always message you so you know if you have secured a seat or are still waitlisted in case a seat opens up. Please check that you don’t have your settings blocking messages; if I can’t contact you, I’ll have to move on to the next person. Also if you don’t respond to my message offering you a seat within 3 days, I’ll let you know that I’m offering the seat to another person on the waitlist. 

This looks like a memorable menu for steak lovers in the group, so I hope you can join me.

**Location:** Brighton Library - Booked Private Meeting Room **Spots:** 8 maximum *This is the first one. Come help us figure out what it becomes.* The Founders Council is a weekly gathering for women in Melbourne's south-east who are building something — a business, a side project, a creative practice, an idea that keeps coming back. It is not just a networking event. It is not a workshop. It is a council — a small room of women who show up weekly (or help out the one-off joiners to the group) to give and receive honest input from people who are in the same season of building but might be doing it alone. You will meet other girls who are building something too, let's help each other out with whatever each of us is working on. Share your inputs and ideas. Because I believe we have so many skills and pieces of knowledge that can help the person next to you. This can be your accountability group come when you can, touch base and keep yourself accountable with what you planned to build. **Session 01 will run like this:** We will start with a quick round of names and what everyone is working on — thirty seconds each. Then the council opens. Anyone who wants to bring something gets fifteen minutes — a problem, a decision, a pitch to test, something they need honest eyes on. (You can also treat this as your accountability group where in your 15 minutes you can share what your plan is for this week. Then come again next week to check in and plan the next week) The group responds. Not with prescriptive advice. With real honest reactions from people who get it. We close with each person naming one thing they are doing before next week. That is it. That is the accountability. Then the last thirty minutes are open — coffee, conversation, the kind of talk that only happens when the room is right. **You do not have to share anything.** Come and contribute to the group. Listen. Give your perspective on someone else's problem. That seat is just as valuable as any other. **Who belongs here:** Women aged roughly 20 to 40 in Melbourne's south-east who are actively building something. Early stage, side hustle, just an idea — all welcome. The only thing that connects everyone in the room is that you are building and you want to be around others who are doing the same. **What to bring:** Yourself. Coffee. Optionally — one thing you are working on or stuck on that you would like the group's eyes on. **Spots are limited to 8.** Small by design. The council only works when the room is small enough for everyone to have the time to share and get the response. *This is a weekly event. Come once or come every week — no commitment required. The door is always open.* Started by Veronika — Bayside local, building an app for couples, and someone who started this group because she needed it and could not find it.
