When a food stall only sells one thing, you can be fairly certain that it’s going to be nice. At O Bun Chef, all they sell are O Buns, which are little pastry disks with various fillings. I ordered a Custard O Bun. A nice thick subtly sweet custard wedged in between two freshly made…

Located right in the heart of South Yarra is a popular patisserie by the name of Burch & Purchese. With the most amazing decor you’ve ever seen and a decent selection of sweets and desserts on offer, you’ll feel like a kid in a candy store. A friend of mine, who is originally from Melbourne,…
Koko Black – Collins St. Melbourne
I must admit that I had never heard of Koko Black until I arrived in Melbourne. They’re a bit of an institution in the eastern states and it’s not surprising that they’re slowly opening stores across the country and in New Zealand. The Collins Street store in Melbourne simply exudes style and elegance with it’s…

Cocolat – Rundle Place
The Cocolat franchise is expanding. If walking to the end of Rundle Street was too hard for you, there’s now a store inside the Rundle Place food court. The desserts are pretty much the same, although I did see a few new ones on their menu. I’m not sure whether there has been an across…
River Cafe – Festival of Food 2013
Having been to the fine dining restaurant upstairs a few weeks ago, I already had high expectations of this place. Located in the same building as the Red Ochre restaurant, the River Cafe also provides fantastic views of the city and the Torrens River. The setting is elegant and modern, and the service is excellent….
Cafe de Vili’s
There’s nothing like a 24 hour bakery on the outskirts of the city. With decor straight of the 80’s, this place serves everything you would find in a corner tuck shop, but on a larger scale. I’ve had the chips and gravy from here before, but this time I went for the Caramel and Banana…
Sebel Playford Adelaide
Eating a lunch time meal at the bar is one thing, but dining at the restaurant is a totally different experience. Tonight, I had a perfect 3 course meal with absolutely nothing to fault. The meals came out 15 minutes after ordering, and each subsequent course was very well timed. SPICY SOY GLAZED QUAIL –…
