A thoughtful conversation between cultures.
Private dining, wilderness feasts and events across Melbourne and Victoria. Seasonal Australian produce, rooted in Asian heritage.
Australian Terroir × Asian Heritage
Cubo takes its name from the kubo, the simple Filipino hut where people gather, close to nature. We cook with what the Australian land offers each season, rooted in the flavours, techniques and traditions of Asia. Not a fusion, but a meeting of cultures.
