Persillade Review – East Melbourne – Australia
Posted on December 17, 2013 2 Comments
One day on my way home I passed by Persillade, a new restaurant in East Melbourne that took over the spot that Europa Cellars used to occupy. They are both wine and European focused establishments and Persillade has a French approach to wine and food. I was initially impressed with the setting of the place. […]
Hunky Dory Review – Melbourne – Australia
Posted on December 15, 2013 Leave a Comment
Hunky Dory is a local Fish and Burger Bar that opened in 2004 as an alternative to traditional fish-n-chip shacks. They have a ‘healthier’ approach to take away fish and offer a range of seafood options. I have eaten there on two separate occasions, and on both occasions I got the fish wrap. Initially I […]

Posted on December 11, 2013 Leave a Comment
My colleagues and I recently went to Alpha Ouzeri on Brunswick Street in Fitzroy. It was a boy’s night out so we decided upon a Greek restaurant that had a fairly good reputation to start. Alpha Ouzeri is located in a trendy part of town, they offer a BYO wine option and there is lots […]

Posted on December 3, 2013 1 Comment
When I was in Ballarat for a sport competition with some friends we decided to go out one night for dinner. We were invited out to dine at one of the local ‘bistro’s’. When the word bistro is used, I usually get excited, as my previous experience with bistros has been overwhelmingly splendid. Gabrieau’s Bistro […]

We recently attended the Taste of Melbourne Festival during Good Food Month in Melbourne. Food and wine festivals are a great opportunity to try a few different restaurants or wineries within an afternoon without venturing too far in the process. It’s a great way to explore a region or cuisine and it’s always a good […]

N2 Extreme Gelato Review – Fitzroy – Australia
Posted on November 13, 2013 2 Comments
N2 is an Extreme Gelato shop in Fitzroy on Brunswick. The name is fitting. They source their fresh milk from local dairies and infuse it with real ingredients and liquid nitrogen to create something special – super fresh, exceptionally smooth, perfect gelato. This place is whack. It is like stepping into a science lab gone […]
