Gozleme
Walking through the South Melbourne markets is always amazing for a light snack. I always hit up the gozleme stand for a spicy lamb gozleme — always freshly made and always tasty. 116-236 Cecil St

Koy
If I’m wanting something bigger and a more substantial meal, Koy is always a favourite. They give amazing attention to detail in recreating traditional Turkish flavours.

Chevapi Grill
Due to my Slavic/Balkan/Croatian heritage chevapi have a special place in my heart. Their chevapi are made solely from beef, they’re made perfectly and cooked perfectly. They also do a huge range of other traditional dishes, all made in house.
283 Clarendon St
Bellota
You can’t go past Bellota for some jamon and a sherry. I’ve always been a fan of Nicky Riemer’s no BS approach to good quality food, and what it says on the menu is what
it is.
181 Bank St
Park St Pasta and Wine
For dinner Park St Pasta and Wine is a winner — always busy, always good. For a venue that hasn’t been around for too long, as you walk in you’re always greeted with a smile and a touch of old school tradition and hospitality. 268 Park St
FYI Melbourne’s specialty coffee pioneer St Ali is open daily 7am-6pm at
