I'm somewhat behind on posting my PADs, replying to comments on my PADs, and commenting on others' PADs, but for the moment I'm going to leave that aside to post some shots from a trip to Melbourne in the last week of June 2015 so that for once they aren't sitting on the computer for weeks, months, years on end before finally being forgotten about.

This trip stayed around the CBD and involved restaurants, a walking tour to see the best eateries, a few trips to the theatre, and more restaurants.

On the Wednesday morning we took a Queenie's Breakfast City Walking Tour. Some of the places that we stopped are shown in the images below, though this gallery can't do justice to the tour. There were too many places that we visited and too much information to include in the captions. If you're into food, it's worth doing.

A couple of the destinations of the tour won't be seen below so I'll mention them in brief. This particular tour (for there are several on offer, and their details change over time) started at Pei Modern Melbourne, under the Soffitel in Collins Street only a short walk from our own hotel. Initially I felt a tad underwhelmed by the menu and the prices aren't the cheapest (nor the most expensive, I grant you). The tour guide recommended the scrambled eggs, though I had my doubts; on one occasion we went to Bill Grainer's place in Darlinghurst which supposedly had "world famous scrambled eggs". Which were nice, but very, very unexceptional. The ones at Pei Modern, however... I'm not sure what herbs and / or spices they put into them but they were probably in the top 5 scrambled eggs I've had, and I don't really remember the other four.
