SUPER FAST, super tasty and super cheap. The cuts of meat are a bit scary so I order vegetarian. I love the soba salad. Sometimes I get the Dons dons box but as I mentioned the meat is kinda gross.

Stellar cafe - especially for takeaways. If you like crepes the egg, jarlsberg and parsley is a savoury delight. The rolls are well made and use the best ingredients. The coffee is good. Its very tiny but this place runs like a machine

This is one of my favourite japanese restaurants in Melbourne (the best for takeaway). The staff are actually Japanese and you can taste it in the superb quality of the cooking. I love the salmon don - four kinds of salmon served with avocado, cucumber and tobbikko! fantastic

Approximate cost: $10

the plain classic glaze donut is the best. not as sweet as krispy kreme which trust me is a good thing! the whole setup is very intense with the hot dog corner. the 50s americana vibe is cute but a bit tacky. coffee not great.

Fantastic range of jewelry. Most of it is made right here in Melbourne. Their in house label Corky has lots of cool characters. Its kinda hard to find but worth the effort! It is set up like a museum - a maze of cabinets you could kinda get lost in there. Everything seems affordable or fairly priced - go here if you want to find a unique present at a good price or if you want a treat for yourself

Approximate cost: $49

Yumm! So many good things to eat here. I love the red velvet cupcake - that is a classic that is hard to do well but the Cupcake Bakery have done a great job. The carrot cake cupcake is also v. good. If you want to order mini cupcakes you have to order the day before......

Unusual Objects and Taxidermy. Crystals, Fossils and other oddities presented like an old school museum. There is always interesting items to find and look at. One of the best shops in melbourne

Approximate cost: $65

Pretty shop. The sales girl was helpful but not terribly friendly. Some of the jewellery didn't seem that original and was kinda expensive. I liked some of the homewares. The clothing was weird and kinda frumpy who are they designing for?
