Charlie Carrington has a lot of stamps in his passport. His restaurant, South Yarra’s Atlas Dining, is well-known for every three months completely changing the country and cuisine its menus take their inspiration from. In order to consistently pull off that feat, Carrington makes several international research trips each year. Little Havana is Charlie Carrington’s love letter to the Miami district of the same name. On previous visits to the Cuban-inspired area, he was drawn to its art, music, hole-in the bars, cigar-rolling stores and standout Cubano sandwiches. Now, he's making his own.
