  • Four Pillars Gin / Healesville

    by Zahra Emily

    The large and a bit drab facade of the distillery hides the beauty inside. Before you even get to the distilling equipment (which are basically functional works of art) the retail space really pulls you inside. The high ceilings, on trend blend of black and wood tones and impressive gin wall behind the bar create a beautiful and welcoming space. The friendly staff add...

  • Why I’m Living Below the Line in May

    by Zahra Emily

    This year I’m Living Below the Line. Running a food blog, I spend an awful lot of time eating, thinking about and writing about food. I’ve always felt lucky to be able to eat out and indulge in delicious meals but have taken it completely for granted that I would go to bed with a full stomach each night. Just putting food on the...

  • East Elevation / Brunswick East

    by Zahra Emily

    I would wonder what’s behind the red door as I pass it each and every time. I’d heard whispers of a chocolatier, and others of coffee and meals to delight the senses. Not knowing which of the little birds to trust my only course of action was to check it out for myself. We arrived at 8.30am on the dot, when such places were...

  • Fifty Acres / Richmond

    by Zahra Emily

     On Bridge road in Richmond, traditionally a haven for bargain shoppers you’ll find a delightful foodie surprise. Fifty Acres is a charming cafe with a wonderful atmosphere, sure to draw you in for a break from shopping!  The interior is absolutely stunning. It’s simple, a play on light with industrial fittings and sleek minimalist decor. The service made an equally good impression. The staff at...

  • Belleville / Melbourne CBD

    by Zahra Emily

       Some of the greatest pleasures in the food scene are to be found in places you’ve probably overlooked. There’s a joy in finding your way to beautiful and unique places and feeling like you’re sharing in a secret with other diners. Belleville certainly has this allure for us. It sits above a bank on Swanston and Little Bourke, you’ll need to walk past and...

  • Pho Cycle / South Melbourne

    by Zahra Emily

    The newest Vietnamese joint to open in South Melbourne, Pho Cycle is generating quite a buzz. It’s conveniently located near my office and it wasn’t long before a gaggle of co-workers decided to give it a go. We were very impressed by the fit out, it was a bit West, a bit East, just like the fusion of Vietnamese favourites and some interesting Western...

  • Asado / Claremont

    by Zahra Emily

    We spent a lot of time in Claremont before we moved and coming back we were delighted to discover Asado had opened in our absence. It’s a long and narrow venue, inviting you in with the allure of space and modern sheek decor.    We went all the way through to the back for the intimacy of the lounge and the view to the...

  • Shortstop Coffee & Donuts / Melbourne CBD

    by Zahra Emily

    If there’s something Melbourne seems to have a lot of it’s donuts. Believe me this isn’t a complaint, the more donuts the better, actually is there anything better then donuts? I digress, after hearing fantastic things about Shortstop’s donuts, we couldn’t resist dropping by their Sutherland street store in the CBD. There were plenty of choices on offer and the decision was agonizing. We started with...

  • All Day Donuts / Brunswick

    by Zahra Emily

      Doughnuts are wonderful. I don’t think I can recall anyone who actually dislikes them, and whoever first had the thought that a cream filled hoop of delicious-ness would be a great breakfast has my thanks.   Now having a handmade doughnut shop in your neighborhood is surely living the dream. Especially such a charming little shop as All Day Doughnuts in Brunswick!  ...

Breakfast in Thornbury

Little Henri | Thornbury

Once again, we found ourselves in need of a good breakfast early on a Sunday morning. Luckily, we had some company this time, which is always welcome and pleasant. We decided to give Little Henri a go, on the corner of High Street and Dundas; a perfect spot for some breakfast in Thornbury. The imposing figure the café cuts on the street makes it...
