## Resource

Melbourne Cup just got a culinary upgrade—Chris Lucas of Chin Chin and Society is bringing top-tier Melbourne eats straight to Flemington, with beef rendang curry and spanner crab tagliatelle served trackside. The VRC’s move taps into the 53% under-35 crowd and overseas visitors (66% last year), aiming to keep racing fresh for the next gen. From front lawn “Feed me” menus to European fare in members’ enclosures and grilled skewers at the Birdcage, local restaurant power is now part of the carnival’s big play to boost revenue after recent losses.
