Eat in Melbourne (Australia)

Here are the top 8 restaurants/cafes I went during my holiday in Melbourne. 

1. Kinfolk @673 Bourke St. 

Kinfolk is a social-enterprise cafe that re-directs their profits to various development projects. The people who work there are mostly volunteers.

We had our brunch there, the avocado feta toast with coffee.

2. Sophisticakes' Chocolate Cupcake @The Art Centre Sunday Market 

The display of the cupcakes in the Art Centre Sunday Market were so nice. I couldn't resist myself from buying this beautiful chocolate cupcake, it tasted good too.. so rich and chocolaty..

3. Il Dolce Freddo @116 Lygon St.

A friend of mine brought us here. I love the atmosphere of this ice cream parlour, a good place to hang out after dinner. Actually, we just had our Thai dinner at Ying Thai 2, which is just beside the ice cream parlour.

4. Mojito @Prahran Market

I went to check out The Essential Ingredient at the Prahran Market, recommended by a friend of mine. And we had our lunch in a random restaurant, Mojito, it was not bad. We ordered risotto and spaghetti.

I will not strongly recommend this restaurant in particular, but for people who love grocery shopping like me, I would recommend to visit the Prahran Market.

5. Lorca @Flinders Lane

This is a Spanish restaurant. We had a chorizo toast, curried lamb, and seafood paella.

What I love most about this restaurant is that it's located in a small lane. You can see a lot of people passing by.

6. Vialetto Ristorante @Docklands

This restaurant has moved to Docklands, previously it was at Hardware Lane when I had this piece of kangaroo steak and my husband had a crispy pork belly. The kangaroo steak was like a lamb steak, but tougher and had a weird aftertaste. Well, at least I've tried..

7. Vue de Monde @Level 55 Rialto

This is the highlight of my Melbourne trip. The atmosphere of this restaurant was cozy and sophisticated. Their food was modern with an absolutely edgy presentation. Overall, it was a great fine dining experience. For more detailed review on Vue de Monde, click here.

 

 

8. Cafe Vue @Melbourne International Airport

We had this beautiful brunch before our flight back to Kuala Lumpur.
