Last night in Melbourne, caught up with a work friend who just moved to a new job. Went to Sara Craft Ramen (Little Lonsdale St) & I had the Yuzu duck ramen (clear duck & dashi shoyu broth, yuzu, smoked duck breast, gobo chips, spring onion), and a chicken karaage with yuzu kosho mayo. #MelbourneEats #kai #food

I did get to have a lamb souvlaki from Greek 'n Out (South Melbourne Market). Their combination platter was also very good. #MelbourneEats #kai #food
Melbourne (unlike Auckland) has a sizable Greek community so I tried but failed to get to Mamos Greek Street Food on Swanston Street. They were closed (though website didn't say so) likely due to the roadworks around them. #MelbourneEats #kai #food

Linguine Di Mare at Brunetti Classico (Lygon St) :
Linguine with prawns, mussels, clams, calamari, cherry tomatoes, white wine, fresh parsley & garlic. Got there, decided I wanted something savory despite all the lovely sweet stuff on display.

Premium Chu Cheong Fun (rice roll with fried tofu, fishballs, fried wonton, stuffed eggplant) with sweet sauce from Myth Cafe (Rosslyn St). The stuffed eggplant was greasy but otherwise good. The chilli sauce is serious. #MelbourneEats #kai #food
