Just saying going to the Burger Lounge brings a smile to my face. I get so eager and excited for…read morethe potential, knowing what's to come my way. I am always welcoming a visit there. Always. Not once have they left me disappointed or fretting over something that could have been better. So, let's get to it. Their menu has so much going on. There's chicken, lamb, fish, beef, plenty of vegetarian burger options and even salads, if you don't want to go the meat route. Each of their burgers has so much variety, you could take some time just reading what's in each one before picking. For me, the Greek burger stood out at once. Like I said, they have so much going on, packed with flavor from the different ingredients and toppings. The burgers are always juicy.The bun doesn't fall apart on you. But it is the type of burger that requires two hands. You need to pick it up and then don't stop eating until you finish it. Or else, it can and will be messy. You've been warned. The Greek burger was composed of lamb, olive tapenade, eggplant, feta, and everything together made this burger so tasty and delectable. It was perfect until the very last bite. The herbed chips are also worth noting, because they are so good. Now, I can't see the reasoning behind why the other reviews on this establishment are so here and there and all over, all I know is that The Burger Lounge has always kept me happy.

Wonderful food, and reasonably fast service! Portion sizes are well worth the price, and delicious.read more

If you've never been to a subway before (not sure who you are, but I'm not discriminating here)…read moreit's a sandwich shop (all on long "subs" hence the name, 6 or 12 inch), where you pick your bread, meats, cheeses, salads & sauces, and grilled or fresh. Or you can pick off a menu, but you'll still be asked for some specifics. For those that have been, this is just your regular subway - but the staff member was probably friendlier than the last couple I've been to. $11 something for a 6inch chicken, bacon, cheese & ranch toasted, with 2 cookies & a small soft drink. Fun Fact: Jared "the subway guy" Fogle lost over 200 pounds eating just subway - and unlike most of The Biggest Loser contestants, has kept it off! (I'm stretching I know, but it's Subway) Something extra - the choc chip cookies are divine. Probably not part of Jared's diet, but delicious.

Sushi Link is one of those places that does the job it sets out to do. Quick food on the go that is…read morenot your run of the mill affair. Their sushi is usually very fresh as they have good foot traffic being right near the corner of Brunswick and Johnston Street. Their noodles are ok but I'd probably say that Noodle Palace just up the road probably has the slight edge over them. Where Sushi Link does come into its own is its special offers for the after work crowd. If you go there between 4 and 6, they will typically have sushi box specials and containers of noodles that are crazy cheap. We are talking $4-5. I'm never too impressed with the quality of the food but if you are hungry and in a rush, it is one of those places you go to fill the hole. Cheap and cheerful. Good for a cheapskate hungry after work.

There are now millions of sushi roll vendors in Melbourne and a lot of them are a bit shit. Sushi…read moreLink is not one of them. I always find the rolls well prepared and unlike many others, full of ingredients. My only issue with them is that they don't come with a brown rice option. I ate in yesterday and tried a deluxe sushi pack that consisted of prawn sushi, salmon sushi and some carved up sushi roll. The food was fresh, not of the greatest quality but still pretty good for Chinese Japanese. I was surprised that even while eating in I still had to eat out of the plastic container, squirting my soy sauce into the plastic lid and trying to mix in the wasabi was pretty difficult. The plastic flipped at one stage and I was left to clean up my mess with a tissue from the tissue box on the table. My biggest gripe about this place is the massive overuse of plastic containers - it's a huge waste, I need to start bringing my own plate or container.

Interesting little cafe in Coburg. It's right across the library, next to the post office. Access…read moreis through the pedestrian only lane/ small street in the middle of the Coburg mall area. Lots of parking around. Cafe seems to be run by a Thai family and offers a menu with Thai twists. The theme of the cafe seems to be a bit all over the place but generally a casual cheap family cafe. The menu is quite cheap. I've had the daily fish and chips special for $8 ( usually around $10). Lots of day specials on the board too. I don't mind trying other dishes next time.

Fresh, fast and friendly is the order of the day here. I've been visiting regularly for the last…read morefive years - after your first visit, I'm sure you'll see why. This place does simple Thai food - consistently, and beautifully. The servings are generous, the meat is fresh (not pre-cooked), and the veg is always deliciously crisp and recently prepared. Dishes are mainly wok fry (optional menu choices of meat + carb + sauce) but there are some classic curries as well. Best for takeaway, it can get a bit busy between 6:30-8pm most weeknights, and parking Bay Street is usually a pain in the arse. Dining in is pretty basic but the place is clean, airy, and full of light. In summer, try and get a spot at one of the tables out the front - probably best for no more than two or three people in any case. Try the Grilled Beef Salad, Pad Thai, Chilli Stir Fry, and Massaman Curry.
