We first discovered the Travelling Samovar back in February, and it has become one of our favourite destinations when we are in need of a real tea experience! Bec, Pascale and Adam are always welcoming, and we have spent more than a few hours enjoying some amazing tea….plus some yummy dairy free treats! And this […]
We recently spent a few days catching up with family in Geelong, and were able to fit in a brunch at 63 Degrees, located on the very trendy Pakington St in Geelong West! I have to admit that we have been there a couple of times over the years, so this cafe was the one […]
Last weekend, I was feeling pretty worn out due to a late night…no drinking involved, just lack of sleep…but a trip to Ethos Cafe in Fitzroy soon restored my energy! Ethos Cafe is a “cafe with a conscience”…and the name came from the owners’ desire to have a good ‘ethos’ at the heart of everything […]

Before we went to the Dog Lovers Show a few weeks ago, we had a little time to quickly drop into nearby Fitzroy to grab some lunch! We met up with some friends, grabbed the first car park we could find and headed along Smith St to find somewhere we could have a quick meal. […]
Every now and then you find a place that does things a little differently..perhaps even a touch quirky…Grace in Fitzroy is one of these places… And we absolutely loved it! Located in Rose St, just near the Rose Street Markets, the cafe faces north, so you can sit outside on the verandah, and soak up […]
On Anzac Day, we got up early and went to the Dawn Service in Melbourne….a totally amazing experience! However, after the service finished, the 60,000 plus crowd then surged into the city in search of warmth and food…which meant it took us a little while to find somewhere with a spare table for two! We […]
