melbourne part 4
Welcome back to Melbourne! Due to busy times, this will be more of a photodump but hopefully it will still satisfy and fulfil your foodie needs ^^! I also discovered that I do enjoy long calm walks along the river near sunset. Shadows are cause for some good times and as usual food is necessity especially late at night. Here Comes the Food
Moo Gourmet Burgers – Coogee, Sydney
Constant cravings… the story of my life. I will be craving one thing and then suddenly it will switch to something else or even a combination of things. Burgers is a reoccurring craving that needs to be satisfied otherwise I am left with an empty feeling (accompanied by hunger pains). I remember reading Squishies post about Moo Gourmet Burgers and just how juicy and awesome the burgers looked (oh god, getting hungry just typing this up) so day D and I gave in and try them out for ourselves.
Marque – Surry Hills, Sydney
After hearing the closures of Forty One, which I was lucky enough to try many years back, and Sojourn, which I did not get to try at all /sad face, it was sad to think that fine dining was a dying breed. Probably due to the financial crisis so everyone is trying to save money and the influences of shows like Masterchef, people are invigorated to try their own hand at creating restaurant quality cooking. I think it is great that people are cooking more and experimenting more in the kitchen but there is still a place in my heart where I want to go out and pampered with gorgeous and creative food. Luckily one of the perfect excuses to try a place like this is a Birthday ^^!
To fully experience a place like this, the degustation is the way to go! ($150 per person/plus $85 for matching wines) Here Comes the Food
