I hadn't realized Melbourne was the part of Australia you two had lived in the past... any chance we'll get to see your old haunts? Wasn't one of you a lawyer there? Also any chance you'd visit Perth? That's the corner of Australia I plan to visit and I'd love to know what you'd recommend...

    Hey, Hoping you are still in Melbourne. I assume you've probably got restaurants planned.
    However if you don't, I would really encourage you to hunt out a restaurant called The Waiters Restaurant. It's been there for decades. I'm pretty fussy with food and it was hands down one of the best value meals I've had in a while. I honestly couldn't fault it. If you do lunch aim for a 1pm sitting when you book. If you do a 12pm sitting you'll be rushed out in an hour.
    It really is some of the best Italian food I've had in decades.
