When a friend recently visited Melbourne for the first time, we thought what better way to show him around, than by taking him on a tour of our stylish bars and restaurants!
Coming from Barcelona, he was accustomed to the best in food, especially great cheeses and their famous cava and wines. What he didn't expect was Melbourne's incredible diversity in cultures.
Many international people comment on Melbourne's food scene; this especially evident when you look at the availability of produce and variety of styles of cafes and restaurants.
From the institution that is THY THY's Vietnamese restaurant in Victoria Street, Richmond, to the best in fine dining with Michael Lambie at TAXI, Fed Square... there really is something for everyone's budget.He couldn't believe that you could have Japanese for lunch, and Greek for dinner, and all at under $20 per meal.
Without sounding like an advertisement for Tourism Victoria, yes, whether it's Indian, French, Malaysian or Nepalese - it's all on offer in our great city. He even added that our Spanish food was 'not bad'.
Oliver heard about our foodie tour and sent through some mouth-watering photos from a few photo shoots last year... love those Laurent Patisserie cakes!
