The wine list is superb with wines from France and South America as well as the best of Australia. Superb service along the art of the dining room makes 'Mirka' one of Melbourne's best culinary experiences. We will be going back.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16911 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16775
A pretty good local pub with one of the best outlooks in Melbourne.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16775 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16744 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16744 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16631
Local produce and seafood, a great view and the fine wines from the winery and other areas create a high-class dining experience. Go for lunch or dinner and enjoy!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16631 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16552 the Queen Vic. It’s enormous – it claims to have 1,000 stalls and be the largest in the southern hemisphere – with Greek, Italian,
Vietnamese and Yugoslavian flavours of local flogging everything from fresh fish and pets to rugs and furniture.

The food stalls are unforgettable: every variety of olive, glistening slabs of fresh fish
and walls of cheese. So that’s why Melbourne has so many epic restaurants.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16552 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16298
The pub is a favourite of motorcycle riders (it's a great place to start or end a ride) who frequent the bistro but the dining room is a nice place for those wanting something more formal... nice thick linen and quality tableware. It's a nice place to eat for those who have been tramping the wineries in the area or having a hit at Flinders Golf Club.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16298 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15974
Cafè Callooh is a new cafè in Hampton with an unusual interior, great coffee and snacks. Soup of the day and other eats are great. Kid-friendly too. Tucked away from the main part of Hampton's High street, Cafè Callooh is well worth a visit! Enjoy the wall writing....]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15974 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15871
The wine list has been well thought out and there is also a good range of beers (which suit Indian food). A choice of the various Indian breads are offered on the menu. Vegetarians are not forgotten with quite a few selections in the Entree and Mains area of the menu.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15871 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15194 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15194 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/14620 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/14620 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13703 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13703 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13572 although today it fronts as a pub with decent food, kid-friendly even for those with ankle biters or rugrats who want a meal out and, of course, it has the obligatory pokies and TAB. Oh, and a decent wine list in the dining room.

The history bit? The Boundary pub gets its name from being on East Boundary Rd which gets its name from being the former east boundary of a large farming estate (back in the 1880s through to the 1920s)

Take the kids (leave them in the playroom) and have a meal or play the pokies.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13572 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13517
Having a lazy lunch in the fancy class restaurant overlooking the valley is a great way to spend a Sunday. The Wheelers is a fave with locals. And did I mention the views too?]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13517 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13456
It's been there for about 50 years and thrives with families going there for a great night out.

The food? A huge variety of seafood, meats, side dishes, hot and cold. The freshly made pancakes are a favourite for desert, with cream of course!

The music and entertainment? Bavarian with something for all the family.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13456 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13453
You can try Poppy's 'Anna and the King' dish - a combination of Penang curry with mushrooms, tofu and vegies, which apparently won them a food award.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13453 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12365 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12365
