Kitty Burns

A couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of visiting Kitty Burns for the first brunch of my birthday weekend. It was freezing and pouring rain, but that didn't stop me. I mean, nothing stops me from getting food.

Long Story Short Cafe

A sunny Saturday morning in Melbourne calls for a brunch date at a new cafe. Today my cafe of choice was Long Story Short in Richmond, which has been on my "must visit" list since seeing videos of their hot chocolate spheres on Instagram.

Journeyman

I'm not sure why, but somehow I justify travelling and sitting in traffic for a ridiculous amount of time just to have brunch at a certain place because "the ratings on Zomato are good". Journeyman was one of those places, and on top of the silly travel time we waited around half an hour for a table as a line had already formed outside when we arrived. 

Chin Chin

After eyeing this place for countless years, I finally had a chance to visit for myself and see what all the hype was about. My friends and I arrived just before the dinner rush and were easily able to find a seat. By the time we had finished, a line had formed outside the restaurant which was not unfamiliar for Chin Chin.

South Melbourne Night Market

Once again I am late to jump on a bandwagon, but I finally got to visit the South Melbourne Night Markets, which are held every Thursday night until March 10th.

I arrived just after starting time only to realize that I had no cash on me and neither did my friend. Although most of the vendors accepted EFTPOS, a handful that caught our eye did not. After heading to the nearest Woolworths we walked back and began our eating trail.

Golden Child

After seeing everyone and their mother blog/Instagram about Baba Sus, I caved and decided to make my way there for brunch one Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately (but not surprisingly) we were told that the wait would be about half an hour. My stomach and I couldn't survive this torturous wait, so we decided to go down the road to another busy, but not so busy cafe called Golden Child.

Sushi Burger

I was making my way back home after a pleasant lunch at Grand Trailer Park Taverna when I accidentally went the wrong way (typical me) and stumbled across Sushi Burger. After overcoming my surprise and confusion, I made a mental note to come back here one day and try it out.
