This week on Relish, there have been some pretty amazing hotels open this year in Melbourne, so how do you stand out? Kate will chat to the "Spirit Master" at Next Hotel Melbourne about their secret weapon.

Plus, video didn’t kill the radio star, and supermarkets haven’t done away with the local butcher. Troy Wheeler explains the success behind Meatsmith. 

And it's less this week in food, and more this week in booze - with new bottled cocktails from Starward, seltzers from Moondog, a big brewery opening in Glen Iris, and thankfully, something for those who are off the booze - Zero Proof Drink lists at a range of venues across the city.
