A very unassuming, but extremely popular inner city Korean lunch bar. This place screams ‘cheap eats’ and doesn’t disappoint both your taste buds or your wallet.

This was the second time that I had visited Eastern Dumpling House in Carnegie and as usual they didn’t disappoint. My favourite dish by far is the pan-fried shanghai dumplings ($8.50 for 6). Freshly made and juicy inside. I also had the claypot chicken and Chinese mushroom ($14.80) with rice ($2) and would recommend this. They have …
How exciting and delicious does this sound….a gingerbread demolition! Picture a large intricately decorated gingerbread house being smashed to pieces and devoured, all in the name of charity, Save The Children Australia.

Tucked down Izett Street, the shop front is unassuming and a great find for fellow Melbourne explorers. The owner is clearly a lover of cycling with the shop decorated with various bike parts and associated paraphernalia. Small Skinny Flat White ($4).

Nasi Goreng with Chicken Berempah ($13.90) Delicious! Very authentic, just like downtown Penang or KL. I also had the Chicken Chop and Oreo Bubble Tea, both are also worth a try. The Area. I …
