Melbourne's Food Scene Takes Center Stage

Melbourne just got crowned by Lonely Planet as having one of the world's top twenty-five

travel experiences purely for its food scene. Not the Opera House, not the beaches,

just the food. You can grab a Lune croissant that people queue two hours for,

then hit up a Palestinian soul food spot, followed by an Italian marketplace, all before lunch.

The city's obsessed with laneway cafes and hidden restaurants tucked in literal alleyways.

Meanwhile, Melbourne's also home to a restaurant owner who has just days to save his

iconic venues from a tax debt dispute. The dining scene here is so intense it makes headlines

when places might close. That's how seriously Melburnians take their meals.
