Sut and Wine Korean BBQ restaurant @ Boxhill, Melbourne

Sut and Wine Korean restaurant is a slightly higher class version of Korean BBQ restaurant situated in Boxhill.. I like this place cause of the environment, considerably consistent service (it depends where you are seated, once I was seated at this obscure corner, hence the service wasn't as attentive as I would have hoped) and just a nice comfortable place to sit and relax after a complete meal.. it is definitely not as smoky/smelly as other Korean BBQ areas. . hence why I like it... usually, after a Korean BBQ, I just have this feeling that I stink! But the ventilation provided in this restaurant is surprisingly good (refer to picture below).

The Black Toro @ Kingsway, Glen Waverly, Melbourne

Have heard tons of good reviews about this place, so I went by for a try and indeed, it did not disappoint. For those who frequent Glen Waverly, you would be aware of how this place boasts about Asian cuisine, so if you're on the look out for something fun and different, this place would be 'THE' place to go to.

Upon entering, you would be greeted by a friendly staff member who would gladly locate a seat for you.

Then, brace yourself as you immerse in the various delicious tasting aroma coming from the open kitchen. Look at those chefs hard at work, oblivious to me taking photos of them.

Daruma Japanese Kitchen @ Burke Road, Camberwell, Melbourne

Although I practically pass through Burke road everyday to get to the train station, I have never been or noticed this restaurant until my sister told me about it recently. Located near Sofia's restaurant is where this quaint Japanese restaurant resides. The menu is simple and traditional but some dishes do have a very unique twist, which I appreciate.

Pho Bo Ga Mekong Vietnamese Restaurant @ Swanston Street, Melbourne

According to many, this place is like one of the best Vietnamese Restaurant in Melbourne CBD, always packed to the brim and full of buzz.

Korean BBQ Restaurant @ Boxhill, Corner Station Street

I have always seen this place packed but have never visited this place, since the name says KOREAN BBQ.. so I figured they didn't serve any other dishes except for you know, BBQ. But boy, I was so wrong. It's not that I don't like BBQ, but its something that I won't have like everyday.

On a Friday night, this place wasn't as pack as their neighbour restaurant (Yami Yami), but I wasn't complaining.. quiet and good service is what I like.

Crown Tower Hotel @ Southbank, Melbourne

This hotel is the epitome of absolute 'grandness' (is that even a word?). and I am not kidding. This hotel won the 2012 gourmet traveller travel award- best large luxury hotel..

Church St Enoteca @ Richmond, Melbourne

Despite the rather old rustic appearance outside, inside, is a different story... Beautifully decorated with very interesting vintage posters..

Indochine Vietnamese Restaurant @ Carrington Road, Boxhill, Melbourne

I have been going to this Vietnamese restaurant since I stepped foot into Melbourne years ago. Its cheaper than the other Vietnamese restaurant down the road (Tien Dat) and in my opinion, still equally good. Like other Vietnamese restaurants, this one serve Bun, Pho, main dishes, and other Vietnamese starters like spring rolls and pancake.
