What to Eat

Nourish the Body and Soul with a Vegan Breakfast at Mr Black Juicery

Mr Black Juicery is in the heart of Berwick, an unlikely location for a new foodie establishment that’s serving up an (almost) all-vegan and gluten-free menu. While it’s echoes away from the inner city vegan hubs of Collingwood and Fitzroy, Mr Black Juicery is flying the vegan flag in the outer fringes of urban Melbourne, […]

Amen to Vegan Gluten-Free Food at Wholey Day in Collingwood

Travelling to inner city Melbourne to eat vegan gluten-free food at Wholey Day in a not-for-profit arts community setting is a warming way to spend a Sunday morning. Though, getting there early is the key to experiencing this wholefoods, raw, vegan, organic, and gluten-free market.   Schoolhouse Studios, in their words, offers ‘affordable workspaces to

Sunday Road-Tripping and Eating Peanuts in Warburton

Travel along Maroondah Highway in the outer east of Melbourne and the trail leads road-trippers to the leafy township of Warburton in the Warburton Valley. It’s well under an hour from where I live in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs and about an hour’s drive from Melbourne’s city centre. Strip shops line the main street – their

Celebrating Milestones over High Tea at Street Organics

The end to 2016 is only a cornerstone away. I’m finding myself in deep thought about the celebrations that have occurred this year, along with the celebrations to come as Christmas inches closer by the day. When we celebrate an occasion, food is almost always a major part of it, just like the friends and

A Curious Lunch and Local Art Stop in Kaniva

While road-tripping across Victoria towards Adelaide last month, my husband and I decided to stop roughly midway in the regional town of Kaniva for lunch. Kaniva is a remote town, located about 400 kilometres, or roughly four and a half hours’ drive from Melbourne on the Western Highway.  It’s here we found a gorgeous retro-styled

Hitting the Pavement for a Vegan Food Tour of Adelaide

South Australia was voted by Lonely Planet as Number 6 in its Top 10 regions in the world recently for 2017; though we can’t forget about the state’s capital in this accolade. Adelaide – the city of churches – is bursting with vegan menus at restaurants around town and seems to be overwhelmingly welcoming to

Turning Can’t into Vegan Gluten Free Can-Do at Abitza Café in Upwey

We are all reluctantly familiar with the word ‘can’t’. Recently, I’ve had to incorporate a gluten-free element to my vegan diet, and the word ‘can’t’ is starting to emerge more in my travels. Food outlets are accommodating, but usually to a certain extent. I understand that, and I’m definitely not one to seek out special
