My Trip to Melbourne in June

Ok I’ve been consistently bugged by my girlfriend to put up pictures from my trip to Melbourne in June. Unfortunately few days into my trip, my camera decided to commit suicide and die of mechanical failure. Thus tilll today I am still left camera-less.

Thinking of getting a DSLR once I get my tax return in. But can I justify spending $1000+ for it?

Anyways, here’s some pictures taken from my trip. Unfortunately it’s not much and most of it is still on Hong Yi’s camera.

Lunch at Yu-u

My lunch at Yu-u with Nicole. Some famous and randomly hard to find Japanese restaurant. $16 for a lunch menu. Quite good!

There’s this nice little place near Chapel Street where Hong Yi works at that sells excellent seafood. Apparently the place has won awards or something. Not too expensive as our lunches were about $10. The place is called Hooked.

During the week, I usually visit Hong Yi for lunch when I get the chance since she’s working and I’m bumming at home.

On my last day before I flew back to Sydney, we had breakfast at a placed called Sweethearts Cafe, famous for their brekkie’s!

Lastly I’ll finish off with Nicole’s furry friends. I went there to plunder Sean’s clothes hehe. What a pirate.

Haha. Thought I’d put this in. It’s the cat sleeping on the warm router on a cold winter day!

The cat is pretty funny. I think it slept on the window sill too, only to fall 1 meter to the floor. But no worries, up he goes again and takes his comfy position on the window sill.

As you can see, my trips to Melbourne revolves a lot around food. It probably comes from our passion of food eating being Malaysians. Hong Yi’s mum keeps an excellent food blog called Hunger Hunger that has attracted many fellow food lovers to it.
