St Ali North in Carlton has resprouted as Green Park, with new forest green and timber livery and something of a Spanish accent.

The all-day eatery and bar, which opens on Thursday October 2, will serve breakfast and lunch daily, dinner Friday and Saturday, bar snacks and drinks any time, and have live music on Sunday evenings.

Rock up for brunch dishes like cornbread with avocado, scrambled eggs, tomato and chipotle relish; and baked eggs with merguez sausage, labne and harissa. At dinner, a pared-back set-price list offers things like house-made charcuterie, red onion tarte tatin, and wet-roasted lamb with lentils and shiraz (two courses $30; three courses $40).

Jesse Gerner, from Fitzroy's Anada and Bomba in the city, has put together a dream team, including chef Howard Stamp (ex MoVida, Le Bon Ton); pastry chef Gadi Assayag (ex Da Noi and Vue de Monde); restaurant manager Jamie Munro-Lynch (whose CV lists stints at Charlie Dumpling, Anada, Circa and Cutler & Co); and head of coffee Kris Wood.

After a makeover by designers Eades & Bergman, the venue seats 110 inside with new bench seating in the area that previously housed St Ali North's espresso bar. But in good news for caffeine fiends, they've retained the cycle-by coffee window.

It will open daily 7am-11pm.
