ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19): ADVENTUROUS AND ENERGETIC
Nicolas, who has paired up with with Australian online restaurant reservation platform, OpenTable, to match customers with their perfect restaurants, says those with an Aries star sign love risk when it comes to their dining choices.
‘Being the first sign of the zodiac, they are born risk takers that love to try new foods and cuisines from faraway places that can appeal to their senses,’ Nicolas said.
‘Aries is ruled by fire and iron and are drawn to spicy food cooked with lots of ginger and chillies. Grilled and barbecued red meat rich in iron and protein are also firm favourites.
‘Due to their impatient nature, they expect service to be quick and are never too shy to voice their demands. Quick bites and on-the-go takeaway meals appeal to their fast moving lifestyles. ‘
Perfect restaurant: A ‘smokehouse’ experience at San Antone by Bludso’s BBQ at the Crown, Melbourne.

‘Whatever they eat, the food must spark all their senses and they always put quality ahead of cost. Good food is the key to pleasing this zodiac bull,’ he said.

‘Geminis like restaurants that won’t bore or fill them with heavy foods,’ Nicolas said.
‘Geminis are known for their flightiness, so sharing food is ideal – anything from tapas to tacos or a Mediterranean platter where they can try as many new things as possible.
‘Geminis want variety in what they eat and aren’t fans of heavy sauces or overwrought preparations: keep it simple and light.

‘They love home cooked food, especially those prepared by their grandmother or any nostalgic family favourites,’ he said.
‘People born under this sign enjoy their food, liking big portions and rarely turning down dessert. They make great company at the table with their knowledge of recipes and the origin of food.

‘They stick to simple and hearty eats that are clean cut, being big fans of vegetarian options, sushi and gluten free dishes.

‘Every meal is a feast and even if they don’t eat much, they prefer small portions of everything – salad, appetiser, main course and dessert,’ he said.
‘With a real sweet tooth they can replace a main dish to indulge in artisan desserts. A restaurant must be immaculately clean with stunning surroundings and table settings. They like double-dating and love tasting food from dining partners’ plates.’

Scorpios ‘have an all or nothing attitude to food based on their emotions’.
‘On some days they eat to their hearts content whilst other days, not so much,’ Nicolas said.
‘Simple favourites include red meat with red wine whilst their love of mystery adores trying new flavours, so an Indian or African eatery would take their fancy. They love aphrodisiacs so think oysters or truffles.
‘A restaurant must offer an intimate private experience with a table away from the crowds. A dimly lit boudoir inspired setting or even a private dining room experience is ideal.’
Perfect restaurant: Neil Perry’s Spice Temple in Sydney is the ideal spot for an intimate dining experience, paired with the subtle influences of exotic street foods usually found in China.

‘Think Indian, Chinese or Brazilian cuisines. They love big bold flavours and spices, and are willing to take risks with food as they love trying new delicacies and food types,’ Nicolas said.

‘They prefer quality over quantity, with poached meats, roasted earth vegetables and stews being firm favourites.
‘Often eating whilst working, a wrap sandwich, burrito or bento box pair well with their desk-driven lifestyle. A restaurant should be understated yet scream social prominence located in a five star hotel or upscale country club with architectural charm.’

‘Expect them to be eating unheard food fads that will in years to come become a mainstream trend. Molecular gastronomy appeals. Being humanitarian in nature, vegetarian and vegan choices strongly appeal.
‘A restaurant should be sleek and modern, even better if technology can be used to order food. They are also open to unconventional settings – think food trucks and pop ups.’
