I’d walked past this place probably a dozen times since it opened without going in. Every time I told myself I’d stop by “next time,” which is a lie you tell yourself about the touristy-looking spot in the middle of a shopping centre you’re always rushing through. I’d ordered a couple of the cakes as […]
Oden Melbourne Review
We’d scrolled past Oden on Bourke Street more times than we can count before we actually booked a table. Every second Melbourne food account seemed to be standing in front of that steaming pot by July, and every time, the same thought stopped us: oden is street food. It’s the stuff you grab from a […]

Yamamoto Udon Reviews
Back in 2024 when I travelled to Japan I tried this wide udon for the first time, it felt really special, didn’t expect I could eat it in Melbourne too. Today after class I went with a friend to a small Japanese shop that only sells udon, didn’t expect there were quite a lot of […]
Authentic Japanese Grilling Experience at Naru Yakitori
This Japanese yakitori place (Naru Yakitori) that’s been sitting in my saved list for so long, finally made it there. 6–9 dollars per skewer, not too expensive, we basically ordered everything we wanted.

The popular Himokawa Udon from Tokyo has arrived in Melbourne

After being closed for over a year, Tofu Shoten is finally reopening. We couldn’t wait and rushed over on the first day!

A Newly Opened Lobster Roll Shop in Melbourne – Hotlob
After buying Starbucks, we discovered a new lobster roll place next door (Hotlob). The shop is tiny, but the value for money is excellent! After so many years, we finally got to eat a hot lobster roll! The bread is crispy and fragrant after being heated, and the size is just right for me. Hotlob […]
