Code Black Coffee
Delicious brunch spot. Even more delicious coffee spot.
Dooboo Korean Tofu House
Yum, and great if you’re looking for something like KBBQ without getting KBBQ. Keen to try again.
Trinket
They have this deep-fried halloumi with watermelon on it and the combination seems like it shouldn’t work but it absolutely does and I’m losing my mind over it. Oh, the venue’s good too.
Gypsy Pig
Scotch egg was impressive but everything else felt like pricey Japanese bar food.
Le Bajo
Cute, cosy and vibey little Japanese café. Some of the sandwiches are a little too rich though for my liking, but the shokupan delivered.
Palette by Night
By day, they serve Korean-inspired sandwiches and coffee. But by night, it feels like they become a whole different spot: a very vibey, dessert café. We need more of this in Melbourne.
South Beach Project
The menu is incredible, but a bit pricey for what it is. You’re paying for the real estate. (Or they’re charging for the locals).
Beatrix
A boutique little bakery in North Melbourne. Incredible cakes, pastries and other treats. Also possibly the best-prepared flat white in all of Melbourne.
