Hi egrek and about food trust me mate you havn't tries food in melb to say that its not good compared to adelaide. Go anywhere in melb and the food is the best in Australia. Right from Italian , english, turkish , greek, vietnamese, thai, chinese, jap, afrikan, muslim chinese, indonesian, indian, french, croatian etc etc...
Malaysian food is not upto the mark and Filipino restos i hav nt come across. Anyone who can share with me some nice Malay or filipino resto in melb would be awesome.
