Coconut House – Melbourne
Prior to flying into Melbourne, we already had a list of the places that we wanted to eat. Unfortunately, the restaurants that we wanted to eat at, had a no booking policy and we found ourselves unable to get a table at the destination of our choice. We were staying at a hotel on Elizabeth…
Burch & Purchese Sweet Studio – South Yarra – Melbourne
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,…
Dr Jekyll – St Kilda – Melbourne
I have to say it really sucks not having a car when you’re in Melbourne. While their public transport system is a lot better than what we have in Adelaide, the walking distance from the tram stop to Dr Jekyll seemed like a considerable distance away. As we walked, it started pouring, and not all…
Il Tempo – Melbourne
Prior to our group flying into Melbourne, we already had an itinerary of all the places we wanted to eat. Some of these places didn’t accept bookings and it was down to luck as to whether we’d get a seat. As we wandered out for breakfast, we discovered we had missed out on our preferred…
Cafe Insieme – Melbourne
One of the wonderful things about Melbourne are the small shops and eateries hidden in their laneways. While wandering through the small side streets to see what I could find, I was approached by a waitress trying to offer me breakfast. Sold on the reasonable pricing, I made my way into the cafe. For breakfast,…
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…
Laurent Boulangerie Patisserie – Melbourne
Laurent is a privately owned family bakery with 15 stores in Victoria and New South Wales. Their focus is producing quality bread and baked goods in the French tradition. Their Melbourne store has an old world Parisian charm about it with decor that oozes style and elegance. There’s an abundance of food on offer in…
The Meat & Wine Co – Southbank – Melbourne
Many moons ago, my cousin introduced me to The Meat and Wine Co in Sydney. I loved it so much, we actually went there twice during my brief visit. Fast forward to now and my group of friends suggest we visit the same store at Southbank for dinner. How could I have possibly said no…
Mamasita – Melbourne
Mamasita is so popular, people are willing to wait 1-2 hours just to get a seat at this place. As we were in our final day in Melbourne, we weren’t leaving until we had eaten here. When we arrived at the restaurant, as expected, we couldn’t get a seat and were told to come back…
