Join us for a Ukrainian feast at Otakoi in Windsor! We have organised a delectable set menu to try as much of the menu as possible. The set menu will cost $90 including soft drinks but not alcohol. Please pay the full amount when confirming attendance. We will cover the bill excluding alcohol with the payment. Pay via payID to Alex, my details will be in the confirmation questions.

The team at Etta humbly describe it as ‘a little neighbourhood restaurant with a big heart’ but with various accolades, including previously winning Gourmet Traveller’s Restaurant of the Year (Vic) and a Chef’s Hat, Etta is more than just a quiet local spot in Brunswick East. The food is fresh and seasonal, and brings people together over shared plates. I booked the Chef’s High Table for 8 Fine Diners to enjoy the ‘leave it to us’ 4-course menu at $115 per person for dinner from 6.45pm on Friday 8 May. There is the option to add matching wines on the night for $85. 
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 $50 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 going. 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 within 3 days, I’ll let you know that I’m offering the seat to the next person on the waitlist. 
Thanks and I’m looking forward to sharing some delicious food at Etta with you!
