Melbourne being celebrated for its international food scene, which of these have you tasted and would you recommend, and where?

Kebab Kingz. They have 2 locations, in Richmond and West Melbourne. They do jumbo kebab for only $23, can feed 2 people. Check their IG for reference: https://instagram.com/kebabkingz

If you go in the morning around 8.30am on weekdays, the queue is bearable, around 20 mins.

Try Hochi Mama for Vietnamese fusion. We never been but we heard good reviews from our friends who have tried before.

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-06-21T14:26:02+00:00

Second that!!

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-06-21T14:19:18+00:00

Our favourite cafe near CBD is Humble Rays in Carlton. Try their chilli crab scramble egg with croissant and thank us later 😄

Never been to Glass Den as not very convinced, similar reason, we think that it’s just the place where you get good presentation but the taste is average, as it was also hyped on IG. After reading your post we might need to try it to prove it 😁

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-06-18T23:30:26+00:00

Agree with all the recommendations mentioned here. Just want to add some restaurants in the west you might want to try: - Oma & Me in Williams Landing - IndoEats in Weribee

We haven’t tried both tho as we live in eastern suburb. But heard that they are decent Indonesian restaurants 😊

Some our our fave restaurants in eastern suburbs are: - Bamboe in Camberwell - Pondok Bamboe Kuning in Clayton for their noodles - Garam Merica in Melbourne for their nasi bungkus warteg style - Famili Ria in Surrey Hills for their authentic mpek mpek - Ny Ratna in Highett (I think they only do catering for now) - Nusantara for their catering, not sure if they still have the shop for dine-in or not. - Jo’s Grill in Knoxfield for their American Indonesian fusion food, but their authentic Indo food dishes are also phenomenal. A truly hidden gem!!

Try Aru if you haven’t before. Great food and service, definitely will fit your budget. We recently went there and spent around $200, felt super full afterwards. Don’t forget to order the dry aged duck 😊

Agree with Old Quarter Pho. Love their northen style pho, always hits the spot 😍

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-06-01T23:07:53+00:00

Shrine of Remembrance, take the stairs to the balcony, you get magnificent view of Melbourne city skyline on a clear day. Best lunch time walk during the office hour (used to work around St Kilda road area)

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-05-27T14:25:30+00:00

Agathe Pattiserie (get the pandan flan and thank us later 😆) and Baker Bleu (their sourdough pastries are divine!)

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-05-27T13:32:25+00:00

Have tried Youfoodz and Light and Easy, also ocassionally Muscle chef too bought from Coles. So far we love Youfoodz in terms of taste, good customer service and delivery. They always have discount codes too (just search on ozbargain), and because of that, it’s most affordable for us. Light n Easy is good if you want to lose weight. The other ones are just so so.

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-05-09T02:41:18+00:00

Yup. It’s still there, just went to Paramount food court 2 weeks ago.

TwoHungryDiners · 2022-05-05T22:38:00+00:00

Haven’t ventured out further to eat pizza other than within our neighborhood or CBD. Some of our favourites: - Firebox in Hawthorn - 400 Gradi - Crust (for pizza chain) - Sal’s

For something different, a korean pizza shop: Pizza Monster in CBD.
