Cecilia W I found this Ms Jackson Restaurant & Bar on a search. I liked it at first sight. I drove 20 kilometers to check in and was not disappointed. I can say that I was amazed by the taste~ burrata 26🔪 Raw tomatoes + basil + burrata with a strong milky flavor = refreshing and delicious 🥩Scotch Fillet65🔪 (discount on Thursdays) The steak is visibly tender and tasty, and it melts in your mouth with the soul sauce. This is their signature dish. I think since I'm here, I must try it👍 House Made Focaccia 8🔪 You can tell from the picture that it is chewy and airy, and the more you chew, the more delicious it is~ 🦑Calamari 34🔪 The squid rings tasted good or bad. Theirs was fried a little crispier, and the squid was smaller and more flavorful 🍷 SHIRAZ The house red wine is so smooth that I can really sit here and drink it all night. The overall atmosphere is very suitable for a drink 🍷 atmosphere. The soft lighting is suitable for dating 🉑. And the waiters are as beautiful as models!

Tina 天儿I had eaten pickled fish head rice noodles in Sydney before, and I couldn't forget it. After returning to Melbourne, I asked local friends and found this Mala restaurant. It opened at 11:30 am. People were waiting at the door at 11:15, and all the tables were full before 12 o'clock. I still ordered pickled fish head rice noodles, which tasted very good. The fish head was a little dry due to the frying, but it didn't affect the taste. After the meal, the store also gave me coffee. With such popularity, I have to come again for the next meal!

SophyJiang漫旅绘This internet-famous coffee shop only accepts reservations. When I passed by, it seemed to be full at any time. If you didn't make a reservation in advance, you would not be allowed in. After checking in, I don't quite understand why it is so popular. 🍃Environment: The industrial style environment of the old power station is transformed. There are actually many similar styles in Melbourne; 🍭Taste: It is not particularly better than other well-known coffee shops. The ricotta hotcake is beautiful and has its own characteristics. The Benedict eggs and avocado toast are just good. 💁‍♂️Service: Although it is full, the waiter's care is still acceptable. The serving speed is not fast, but everything comes up as soon as it is served. It happens to be sitting next to the open kitchen, and I don't feel the smoky smell mentioned by netizens. Just experience it.

空空CJThe staff were really lovely, polite, attentive and friendly, and explained the dishes in detail and attentively without being intrusive. The dishes were all delicious, the portions were just right and the flavors were great. I would have liked the cheese to come out before the desserts, rather than when I wanted them. But since the ice cream came first, I had to eat the desserts first, but I just picked and ate some. Of course this is just an inevitable personal opinion. Such a wonderful experience has made me overlook this. 😍👌💖 In no particular order (after all, the desserts are all beautiful😏): 1. Rum sponge cake (pineapple, coconut, lime) 2. Cheese (chef's selection) 3. Cape beef (radish, charred leek, bone marrow) 4. Quail meat (mushrooms, black garlic, pickled fennel) 5. Scallops (grilled nori, dashi butter, peas) 6. Potatoes (goat cheese, smoked carrots, neem seeds) 7. Pickled cobia (spiced tomatoes, horseradish, XO sauce) 8. Bread and chips 9. Pineapple cocktail

pxy0705Tianfu Boutique Hotpot in Melbourne is an authentic hotpot restaurant from Sichuan. All the spicy spices here are airlifted from Sichuan and the taste is very authentic. Coupled with the Australian-specific lamb and beef, the taste is really amazing and especially delicious.

The fried tofu was very crispy, and the rice rolls from the food stalls were also very tempting. In the end, we ate one plate and ordered another! [Gluttonous] [Gluttonous]

PHP3237SeafoodViewTime-honored BrandRiver viewPrime location

SophyJiang漫旅绘A century-old restaurant in Melbourne on the Yarra River, the history of the restaurant can be traced back to 1902, when the Zampelis family from Greece came to Melbourne and founded this seafood restaurant. But it doesn't look like an old restaurant, a typical Australian restaurant with a bit of style. The interior is elegant and the outdoor is lazy. 💁‍♂️Service: It was sunny in the summer evening, so we chose the outdoor. It is said that the restaurant should be reserved, but we came very early and there was almost no one, so we could choose a non-reserved seat. However, the waitress took us directly to the wall seat, ignoring our desire to face the river. Fortunately, I asked a young man again, and he confirmed that there was a view seat, so he immediately arranged a riverside seat. Later, he introduced himself as Peter and served our table all the time. 🍽️Taste: The menu for three people is "Mussels", "Seafood Rice", "Vegetable Salad", "Steak" (two portions are enough), with additional appetizer bread. The quality is beyond words, the beer is cool, the breeze is not dry, and it is a satisfying meal. 💰Value for money: Three people spent $345, equivalent to about RMB 1,500.

没有蜡ollingI checked in at Industry beans, a popular Melbourne online store, on the weekend. I heard that it is in the top 10 in Melbourne, with the best coffee and the best croissants in the world. Some limited editions were pre-sold out a month in advance. The open glass kitchen has a factory style.

没有蜡ollingCome for morning tea on the weekend, and there are quite a few surprises~ The lava buns are salty and fragrant, and the hot fillings are filled with uneven salted egg yolk particles. After biting through the dough, they rush into the mouth, warming the heart instantly. The egg tarts are crispy and delicious, the egg liquid is not too sweet, and the puff pastry is baked just right. The pandan steamed cake is small and exquisite, mixed with pandan leaves and milk fragrance, soft and palatable, and very comfortable to eat. The puff pastry barbecued pork buns, beef offal, and barbecued pork rice rolls are also delicious without being impressive. There is also a strong garlic flavor of chicken feet, and a slight toughness. The whole table is pretty good. Except that the shrimp dumplings are too dry and the skin is broken, and the stuffed tofu tastes out of tune, the overall satisfaction is satisfactory

没有蜡olling🍴 I haven't had Thai food for a while, so I decided to try the funky Chin Chin! 🇹🇭 The food is good, and there are a lot of people in the restaurant on weeknights. The Kingfish Sashimi, fried chicken wings, beef short ribs, pork belly, and grilled cauliflower I ordered were all very tasty. 👏 100 per person, a bit expensive. 💰

没有蜡ollingAfter looking around, this is probably one of the better steak houses in Madison. We made reservations in advance, but it’s not really necessary. The appetizer half dozen oysters were very fresh 🦪 and delicious! The beef tartare was average, the meat was a bit dry, I didn’t feel it was up to standard, I didn’t like it The A5 wagyu was pretty good, but 100 for 2oz is really not cheap! The lobster was just average, it was overcooked and not very tender, it was just average, the lobster tail was burnt, what can I say, the lobster at this price is pretty bad, I also ordered the wet aged steak, it was well prepared, but maybe because I had already eaten wagyu, I thought it was just average The creme brûlée was just average The wine list was good, the service was OK, the environment was OK
