Opulent, elegant, contemporary and wildly delicious is how I would describe Le Plonc’s high tea. They don’t do the tiered plates of food which high tea is usually known for, rather it’s a modern approach to high tea taking you on a culinary journey instead of you working your way down the plates.

More places should be serving things on sticks. It’s delicious, easy to eat and there’s just something fun and interactive about choosing your skewers, having them bbq’d to order and having a bunch of sauces to dip them in, changing the flavour profile of each bite. Uncle 8 has recently opened in QV and that’s …

The Fitz is a two-story restaurant where you can get brunch, a tasty pub meal or catch up with friends for some drinks and tapas. The smash and grab was a great dish. It was the classic smashed avo on toast with the addition of Danish feta, crisp sugar snap peas and a trail of …
Porgie & Mr Jones is an awesome place for brunch in Hawthorn. They have lots of good choices and make a fine cup of coffee. The chicken tacos were delish. Three mini soft tortillas with crispy chicken, slaw, corn, black beans, chipotle mayo and avocado with a wedge of lemon. All the flavours married well …
Route 45 has opened in Pran central where you can get your American diner fix. We’re talking burgers, ribs, shakes and big ass sundaes.
