Dinner and a Show

2 THE EUROPEAN With its location next door to the Princess

Theatre, the view at the European is quite indulgent, as is its menu of classic fare. For an after-show treat, The Supper Club, located above the restaurant ( just look for the hidden wooden door) is a Melbourne institution and the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail.

» 161 Spring Street theeuropean.com.au

All that sport is set to make anyone thirsty. Take some time after the event (or drop in on your way there) to relive the game’s highlights and discover the variety of bars Melbourne has to offer.

After the Game

1 PRECINCT HOTEL Always popular with the pre-game crowd,

visitors to the Precinct spill onto the footpath in their smart casual attire and footy scarves, enjoying craft beers and meals before wandering through Yarra Park to the MCG.

» 60 Swan Street, Richmond precincthotel.com.au

2 AVIARY HOTEL Once you’ve had your fill of the sumptuous

Vietnamese food that lines Victoria Street, the Aviary is as good a place as any to spend the evening. Just a hop, skip and a jump away from the MCG, it ’s a great spot to celebrate a win with like-minded supporters.

» 271 Victoria Street, Abbotsford aviaryhotel.com.au

3 THE SAVOY TAVERN After laying dormant for years, the building on

the corner of Bourke and Spencer Streets has recently been transformed into the Savoy Tavern. A five-minute stroll from Etihad Stadium, it ’s an excellent venue for soaking up the atmosphere.

with theatregoers, city workers and tourists, Riverland Bar is conveniently positioned across the road from Flinders Street Station. Nestled on the Yarra’s northern bank, it inhabits the historic Federation Wharf vaults.

Uniquely MelbourneMelbourne is a unique city with a few antiquities that are occasionally hard for a visitor to fathom. Here are all the tips and tricks, so you’ll know exactly what the locals are talking about.

KEEP YOUR CUPDisposable coffee cups are harmful to the environment, so dine in and enjoy a break, or if you must keep walking, invest in one of Melbourne’s very own KeepCups; barista-quality recyclable coffee cups. Made in a range of funky colours it is the perfect take home souvenir.

» keepcup.com

ON TRACKExploring the city? The best way to get around Melbourne is on the easy to use public transport system, which includes Melbourne’s iconic trams. They run throughout the inner suburbs and are the perfect way to get your bearings.

» yarratrams.com.au

THE TANIt was once a riding path for Melbourne’s equestrians, but now this 3.8km track is the place for walking and jogging. It follows the Yarra River for a short distance, before heading off around the perimeter fence of the Botanic Gardens. The lap record – 10 minutes and 12 seconds – was set by long-distance runner Craig Mottram in 2004. Have a crack at beating it if you dare.

» gothetan.com.au

SPORTING CAPITALIt ’s no secret that Australians are fanatics when it comes to sport, and no city is more fanatical than Melbourne. You will discover a range of sporting events played out across the year, and this season’s highlights include the International Champions Cup (soccer), Rugby League, Ice Hockey and Australian Rules Football (AFL).

With exclusive discount offers to some of the city ’s favourite attractions, travel, event and entertainment guides, useful tips and information, the Melbourne Official Visitor Guide App is the perfect companion for any visit to Melbourne. Available for download on the App Store or Google Play now.

A Tap Away

SEASONABLE SHIFTEven during Melbourne’s crisp winter, the city offers an ever-changing temperature and is known to vary from hour to hour. So always be prepared – it can’t hurt to pack sunscreen and a hat along with your raincoat and umbrella.

» melbournerowing.com.au

WATER SAVINGMelbourne is subject to water restrictions, so do your bit by keeping showers short (four minutes or less) and hang towels in your hotel room so that you can reuse them.

HOOK TURNSDon’t be alarmed. Due to tramlines running down the middle of major city streets, there are some intersections where cars turning right must do so from the left lane. The vehicle remains there until the traffic lights for the road it ’s entering turn green, then it carefully executes its turn. This manoeuvre minimises congestion on the roads. Hook turns are rare and not nearly as scary as they sound.

GIVE BACKConservation Volunteers is Australia’s leading practical conservation organisation. They believe in a healthy and sustainable environment and for everyone to be involved in managing and protecting that environment. Conservation Volunteers welcome people with a love of the outdoors and interest in the environment to take part as a volunteer.

Lose YourselfNot just for getting from A to B, Melbourne’s laneways are a destination in themselves. Spend a day exploring the city’s food, fashion and art.

SOMETHING TO WEARIn winter, Melburnians tend to dress stylishly and elegantly as they rush to work or relax on the weekend. The city ’s laneways hide a smorgasbord of designers and outlets, all of whom are eager to make you look amazing.

Dazzling arcades like Royal Arcade and The Block Arcade constantly hum with activity, but it pays to look for local designers like Israeli-born Haim Bzezinski, whose creations under his label Dizingof have been inspired by Melbourne for over a decade.

» Dizingof, Shop 3/289 Flinders Lane dizingof.com

SOMETHING TO EATMelbourne’s Chinatown precinct can be found in and around Little Bourke Street (between Swanston and Spring Streets). Those looking for a bargain fill their bellies with mountains of steaming dumplings at the cheap and tasty Shanghai Village, while Post Deng Café offers something a little more refined.

Girl With The Gris Gris is a new Louisiana-style kitchen based in Ding Dong Lounge, one of Melbourne’s premier small music venues. Grab a bite then catch a show in the band room next door.

2 PATRICIA In an area of town more well-known for its

courthouses than its cafés, the baristas at Patricia know that law-makers have a discerning palette when it comes to coffee. Standing room only inside, there are plenty of options available for even the most discerning of coffee drinker.

Hawthorn, Axil opened up a city store in May 2014 and the staff take a very serious approach to coffee production. It ’s fast, it ’s good, and it ’ll have you buzzing for hours.

Melbourne’s European coffee trend has seen laneways overflowing with espresso bars – the perfect places to kick start your morning or top up your caffeine levels after a long day.

Coffee Anyone?

SOMETHING TO SEEArt rules in Melbourne, from the bright and overwhelming brilliance of the city ’s street artists that (literally) colour the laneways to the creative, cutting-edge artists that reside in Melbourne’s many unique galleries. AC/DC Lane, Hosier Lane and Croft Alley are all must-see’s when it comes to embracing Melbourne’s street art culture.

For something a little more indoors, TCB art inc is one of Melbourne’s leading independent artist-run spaces, and LoopHole is a small space consistently running night-time exhibitions by local and emerging artists.

Discover MelbourneWant some tips on how to spend the next day or two? Here are some ideas to help you enjoy Melbourne on a tight schedule.

DAY ONE

MORNINGIncluded in Melbourne’s Free Tram Zone is the world-famous and historic Queen Victoria Market. Built in 1878, the market is one of Melbourne’s most visited attractions, but that doesn’t stop it being the destination of thousands of everyday Melburnians to do their weekly shopping or grab a breakfast on the go.

» Queen Victoria Market Cnr Elizabeth & Queen Streets qvm.com.au

AFTERNOONThe Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) is a hub of creativity. This season, from 16 July – 1 November, as part of Melbourne Winter Masterpieces, the David Bowie is exhibition will be on show. From the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, it’s a must for music lovers.

» ACMI, Federation Square acmi.net.au

EVENINGFor a special night out, Melbourne’s Southbank strip is hard to beat. Restaurants line the Yarra River, and on cool evenings outdoor heaters allow you to sit outside and watch the people go by. On the hour, gas brigades illuminate the skyline adding more drama to the atmosphere.

» southbankrestaurants.com.au

DAY TWO

MORNINGStart your day in Little Italy, Lygon Street with breakfast from Tiamo Restaurant before wandering over to the Ian Potter Museum of Art at Melbourne University (not to be confused with the Ian Potter Centre: NGV), the largest university-based art museum in Australia.

SAM PEMBERTON SCOREBOARD OPERATOR, MELBOURNE CRICKET GROUND

T here’s no place better to experience sport during the winter than at the Melbourne Cricket

Ground (MCG). The MCG now has the two largest vision boards in Australia, and the man in control is Sam Pemberton. Sam has been involved in the ground’s screen operations since 1996 and regularly attends the biggest sporting events in Australia. With the AFL season in full swing, here are a few of his favourites.

CAFÉ: Rowena Parade Corner Store, Richmond. It ’s my friendly local store with great coffee and food.

BAR: Corner Hotel, Richmond. A great pub with a huge focus on live music has made it a Melbourne institution.

RESTAURANT: MoVida or MoVida Next Door (whichever one you can get into on the night), closely followed by Gingerboy. At all of these places you can sit at a bar or wedge onto a small table for two and enjoy a delicious meal of shared plates.

COFFEE: A long black from Jasper Coffee at Prahran Market – the perfect way to start a Saturday in the hustle and bustle of the market.

SHOP: Record Paradise, Brunswick the new and second-hand vinyl available at a shop run by music aficionados.

VIEW: The city skyline at night from Bolte Bridge. When driving in from the airport after travelling interstate, this view of the city and the MCG looks great and makes me feel like I'm home.

In the Know

What better way to uncover the city's hidden secrets than from a Melburnian? Get all the tips and local knowledge from our hand-picked expert, and start your very own adventure.

AFTERNOONThe number 19 tram from the city is the simplest way to travel to Sydney Road, Brunswick, one of the hippest shopping strips in Melbourne. From independent fashion boutiques to second hand shops and everything in between, Sydney Road traders will welcome you with open arms.

» sydneyroad.com.au

EVENINGThere are plenty of places along Sydney Road for a refreshing beer or warming glass of red wine, many of which showcase up-and-coming Australian bands and songwriters playing for free. The Penny Black is a quintessential Brunswick pub with an expansive (child-friendly during the day) beer garden and local atmosphere.

Putting on a ShowThere is no better way to experience Melbourne than by immersing yourself in the range of events and attractions on offer.

SPORT LOVEWhen it comes to sport in Melbourne, all roads lead to the MCG. While Etihad Stadium in Docklands is also home to a number of Melbourne-based Australian Rules Football (AFL) teams, for an atmosphere like no other, the 'G' is the place to be. Matches are played every weekend during winter, and tours of Australia’s most famous sporting ground run most non-game days.

For something a bit different, the Medibank Icehouse is home to ice hockey teams the Melbourne Ice and Melbourne Mustangs. Catch a game or take to the ice and have a skate.

FAMILY FUNFamily fun in winter is all about indoor entertainment, and the Melbourne Museum / IMAX precinct a short walk from the city is unsurprisingly one of the hottest destinations in town.

Alternatively, catch a train or take a drive over the West Gate Bridge and visit Scienceworks Museum, where hands-on participation by children of all ages – and their parents – is actively encouraged!

The Heide Museum of Modern Art, former home to Australian art luminaries Sidney Nolan, Albert Tucker and John Perceval, is absolutely worth the 20 minute drive out of the city. Outside the gallery itself, the Heide gardens are beautiful year-round, and free to visit.

MELBOURNE MADEMelbourne’s fashion scene is the envy of much of Australia, and local label Búl is the epitome of the local scene. Despite only existing since 2010, designer Virginia Martin now displays her elegant women’s range at Melbourne’s premier fashion events. For a fashionable reminder of a visit to Melbourne, it’s hard to find better.

There’s no shortage of souvenir shops in Melbourne (see Swanston Street or Queen Victoria Market for starters), but for something a little more unique, you’ll find the perfect gift or memento at The Melbourne Shop by Lumbi.

» Búl Melbourne City Level 3, Curtin House, 252 Swanston Street bul.com.au

» The Melbourne Shop by Lumbi Shop 2, Driver Lane (behind GPO building) lumbi.com.au

Style & SubstanceWhether you’re looking for a souvenir or something special, you’ll find it in Melbourne. Meander the laneways or head for the high street – the choice is yours.

SUBURBAN DESTINATIONSWith more than 400 stores along Burke Road and around Camberwell Junction, the Camberwell Shopping Precinct is one of the largest and most vibrant high streets in Melbourne. If in town on a Sunday, be sure to visit the Camberwell Market (6.30am to 12.30pm).

The history of High Street, Armadale, can be dated back to the 1880s, but a visit today is a very modernistic experience. Leading fashion labels, bridal boutiques and antique and art galleries are intertwined with gourmet cafés and restaurants, making this a truly luxurious destination.

Just 15 minutes away by train is the quaint but bustling Puckle Street village in Moonee Ponds. With almost 50 fashion stores in the immediate area, not to mention day spas, nail salons and hairdressers, an afternoon in Puckle Street will have you looking and feeling amazing.

ALL MORNING LONGAs the most important meal of the day, breakfast in Melbourne is taken very seriously.

The Hardware Société offers a Spanish-leaning menu (think baked eggs with chorizo, piquillo peppers and queso de cabra), while the Auction Rooms, just a short tram ride away from the city, was recently awarded Melbourne’s best café. Both brew great coffee, and will draw you in from the wintry mornings outside with a smile before warming you up and sending you on your way.

The Real MelbourneMelbourne is the envy of Australia when it comes to food, drink and nightlife. You’ll never forget the taste of Melbourne.

HAUTE CUISINELooking for dinner with a view? You can’t go past a seat at Vue de Monde, Shannon Bennett’s restaurant – on the 55th floor of the Rialto Tower. Choose from A La Carte or Degustation menus; either way, a night here, with its 360° view, is a night of pure indulgence.

Grossi Florentino shares nearly 90 years of history with you when you walk inside one of its three venues. The upper level houses ‘Upstairs’, where Australian produce is lovingly crafted into Italian cuisine masterpieces, paired with equally stunning wine, and sits atop all the bustle of Bourke Street.

Over the last few years Fitzroy has seen the arrival of several prestigious restaurants that now line Gertrude Street. Heading this group is Cutler & Co, housed in an old metal works factory and recently listed as one of Australia’s Top 10 restaurants. It’s a unique experience and one to try during an indulgent Melbourne holiday.

With its multicultural population, Melbourne’s dining scene thrives on the exotic, original dishes that have followed immigrants to the city. Here are a few of our favourites.

The World in Melbourne

1 RED SPICE ROAD The phrase ‘where east meets west’ gets thrown

around a lot, but when it comes to modern-day South East Asian-style dining, Red Spice Road is as good as it gets. Shared main meals encourage a friendly, relaxed experience just perfect for medium and large groups.

» 27 McKillop Street redspiceroad.com

2 HARAMBE ETHIOPIAN RESTAURANT Just a few kilometres west of the CBD, Footscray

is a suburb on the rise. A melting pot of cultures including a large African population, Harambe Ethiopian Restaurant transports you to a traditional straw-roofed tukul, where curries, stews and breads are sure to warm you up.

» 205-207 Nicholson Street, Footscray harambecoffeemart.com.au

3 RED PEPPER Indian restaurants are found all over Melbourne,

from the city ’s laneways to the takeaway strips of suburbia. For an unpretentious, effortless meal, Red Pepper is sure to deliver. An emphasis is placed on traditional vegetarian options, but there’s enough meat available to satisfy any carnivore.

» 14 Bourke Street redpepperindianrestaurant.com

COSY BARSMelbourne’s bar scene is constantly evolving, with new venues opening all the time. Winter is a great time to get comfortable in one of the myriad of options around town. With a cocktail menu stretching back as far as the 1650s, you can settle in at 1806 knowing that you’re guaranteed to find something to satiate.

While also offering many cocktail options, Eau de Vie specialises in one spirit in particular; whisky. There are 17 pages in their menu listing the different whiskies from around the world to choose from, and if you’re struggling to make a choice, the staff will be more than happy to help you out.

On the fashionable Brunswick Street in Fitzroy, the Black Pearl has earned an award-winning reputation as one of the city ’s best cocktail bars. In the second-floor Attic, table service comes standard so you’ll never even have to leave your seat.

Melbourne’s taxis are an easy and convenient way to get around. If you are planning to catch a taxi you can:

1 PRE-BOOK It is recommended that you book a taxi

in advance. Consult your local phone directory, search online for taxi operators in your area, or use one of the many apps available.

2 USE A TAXI RANK There are many taxi rank locations listed

on the Melbourne City Map on page 138.

3 HAIL A TAXI You can hail a taxi from a safe location on

the side of the road. A taxi is available if its dome is fully lit, otherwise it is already booked.

Fares for travelling in a taxi are detailed on the passenger fares sticker inside the taxi. You can also plan ahead by scanning the QR code below to estimate your taxi fare or visit the website below.

MELBOURNE-AVALON AIRPORT

When you visit Melbourne there’s an endless listof things to do, so who wants to waste time sitting in traffic or lining up in queues at the airport? If you want to touch down and drive straight out to enjoy the sights, choose Avalon Airport.

Situated close to an uncongested highway, the queues are short and Avalon has the best on-time performance of any Australian airport. If that doesn’t change your mind, consider the fact that Avalon Airport is the closest airport to the Great Ocean Road, Bell’s Beach and the 12 Apostles, yet is still only 40 minutes from Melbourne’s CBD. Pack more into your holiday and fly into Avalon Airport.

To book visit avalonairport.com.au

If a rhinoceros on a giant skateboard was heading your way, you’d get out of the way, right?

Guess what, a tram weighs as much as 30 rhinos.

Look. Listen. Be alert around trams.
