EAT HERE

A gourmet destination through and through, Melbourne is oft affiliated with robust coffee and contemporary brunches, but rarely receives love for its abundance of halal eateries. Some thoughtful recommendations from Tourism Victoria include Almaro Italian Restaurant for generously portioned pastas and pizzas, Burger Edge for high stacked, flamed-licked burgers, Chilli India for rich dishes laced with a spicy edge, and Rumi for bona fide Lebanese cuisine perfumed with spices.
