Abacus is located very close at the heart of Chapel Street. We instantly fell in love with the building and the high ceiling restaurant with lots of greeneries which we love so much. Love the semi open air restaurant with chilling vibe and really nice place to stay around hanging out with friends or families over drinks. We’re so excited to be invited to try their new menu.

On that day the weather in Melbourne wasn’t too friendly. It was windy, cold and raining in the morning.

Lanzhou Beef Noodle located just 3 mins walk from South Yarra station, every time you passed this area you cant miss the fragrantful broth smell from this restaurant. That’s why this weekend, we went here to try their famous Beef Noodle.
Found another fantastic Italian place to bring your fellas. Apparent from its name, this place is specialised in pizza and homemade gnocchi. The 48h name referring to the minimum time to wait for the pizza dough to produce light, fragrant and aromatic crispy pizza crust.
The restaurant is designed to be intimate and seems to always full even on the weekdays.
That’s why bookings are important especially for a bigger group.
Ecco il Ristorante located at the heart of Toorak Road just literally 5 minutes walk from South Yarra Station.
It gives you the premium, neat and classic Italian look with all the white table clothes all over the tables in the main floor.

Located in slightly less busier street of Chapel Street. Great place to unwind during the weekend and even weekdays to enjoy nice weather and great pizza in outdoor setting and you can even bring your furry friends along. The place gives this funky vibe with neon here and there and always bring hint of Italian vibe here. If you noticed, they put the lighting of Italian flag there. Smart! Come and have a look and you’ll see what I meant.
