My brother’s favourite pizza restaurant, +39 has a substantial selection of unique pizza combinations as well as a decent variety of pastas available. Below, are the blue swimmer crab spaghetti, their signature +39 pizza and even their 39 layers lasagna. The pizzas were light and delicious, with a crispy thin crusts. Lasagna was yummy and […]
Brick Lane (formerly Rustica)
Brick Lane, formerly known as Rustica Cafe, is located in the tiny Guildford Lane near Melbourne Central. My father is a big fan of their coffee and croissants and keeps a loyalty card which he whips out every time he’s in Melbourne. An Aussie staple, I usually go for their smash avo brunch, which is […]
Entrecôte
A nondescript restaurant hidden inside Alfred Place, entrecote was a cozy, relaxing place for dinner. The interior decor was simple and also featured various ‘moving’ portraits which were very intriguing, as they would alternate with each others’ frames throughout the meal. We ordered a few small sharing plates to try such as the top left […]
Soi 38
Found by my friend, Soi 38 is a restaurant serving thai boat noodles. However, unlike the iconic tiny boat noodle bowls in Thailand, these are normal sized portions. Regardless, they come really cheap at only $10 per bowl, or $15 for a large bowl! Clockwise from top left is the beef boat noodles, duck noodles, […]
Rice Paper Scissors
Finally managed to get some somewhat-decent photos from RPS on 2 separate trips (you can probably tell by the difference in qualities), one during dinner and one from lunch. A tapas-style restaurant, it’s a great way to try a variety of different dishes (and you can get 5 dishes for a good deal between 2-3 […]
Lukumades
Loukoumades are greek-donuts. Usually coated in honey, Lukumades offers a variety of ingredients for coating, as well as ice cream to top it all off. Located near Queen Victoria Market, it’s a great pit-stop after some grocery shopping or even late night dessert as it closes at around 10. The menu consists of various topping […]
Tu Restaurant and Bar
A recently opened french restaurant, my sister and I went for a taste test at Tu to see how the food was (also helped that she had discount voucher). The restaurant itself was very small, fitting only about 4-5 tables of around 2-6 people each. Because of this, and the fact that it was relatively […]
The French Brasserie
After a very ‘unusual’ craving for escargots, I found this restaurant online and managed to rope my cousin into trying it out with me – as well as satisfying my very specific craving. The main dish I was looking forward to – the escargots – were divine. The sauce was amazing and whilst my cousin […]
Masons of Bendigo
While visiting my sister’s placement in Bendigo, she booked us a dinner at Masons, citing that the food was good and as close to fine dining Bendigo offered. The restaurant was spacious and the layout allowed quite a number of tables without feeling like customers were rubbing elbows with one another. Masons on Bendigo’s menu […]
The Modern Eatery
On Saturday, The Modern Eatery had their soft opening and therefore had everything (except desserts) on their menu at 50% off. A friend of mine who works there let us know and helped us get a booking for dinner that night. The atmosphere there was very relaxed and the food came at a nice leisurely […]
