  2. 💅🏼 Vietnamese Queen of South Melbourne @queenb_southmelbourne @leons.phorolls ✨ Meet Steph. She pretty much knows everyone on this street. Steph treats everyone with so much love and joy, incomparable to any owner I have met. Her love is through her bubbly personality, generosity but most importantly, nail art 💅🏼 and now through her food @leons.phorolls serving Vietnamese classics of great quality with beef pho being as cheap as under $10!? 🍲 char sui beef rib pho 21.90 3.8/5 🍱 rice paper roll, spring roll, bo la lot platter 4/5 🎍sugarcane juice 5/5 ✨ ☕️ viet coconut milk coffee 4.5/5 Highlight was the beef quality in the pho. So tender, so rich and engulfs you. So worth it with that price point. I found the broth super rich and clean, but a bit salty which could be toned down. Loved their rice paper rolls and spring rolls, but the betel leaf wrapped beef skewers (bo la lot) was a bit dry so once the cooking is nailed, that superb flavour and spices will shine through and send you to another universe. The best part is how talented she is with her nail designs. I’ve been going to her since 8 years ago and after not visiting her due to distane, I can’t believe she and her team are still as careful and delicate with your nails and hands. Gift giving is only one sign of her love language, she is an infectious soul who is talented. Even after having her kid, Leon, she still operates every day non-stop, and has not lost her energy one bit since 8 years ago when I visited her. Great northern Viet food, amazing nails, you will be guaranteed looked after ✨ gifted collab #melbournefood #melbournevietnamese #northernvietnamesefood #southmelbournefood #melbournenails

  3. 🍗 BOTTOMLESS FRIED CHICKEN @flappy_joes gives you wings 🪽 At night, the chicken @sloppyjoesdeli start flapping and @flappy_joes is in full operation. For $30 (kids $20), it’s not only AYCEA FRIED CHICKEN but also all their delish sides & desserts!? When they warned is how big the chicken was going to be, we did not expect it to be THAT BIG. 🐓 AYCE CHICKEN 🍗 drumstick 4.2/5 (works best w hot honey imo) 🪽 wings 4.5/5 (works best w cayenne imo) 🐥 tenders 4/5 (works best w hot honey imo) 🥪 cheese toastie 3.5/5 🍝 mac & cheese 4/5 🥔 potato & gravy 3.8/5 need more gravy 🧇 waffles 3.8/5 indifferent but this one better than most ive had in melb 🌽 corn chowder/cup 4/5 hits the spot esp when you eat spice 🍦 dubai choc soft serve 4/5 🍟 2/5 needs to be more seasoned Lowkey what’s the point of bottomless when you start getting full from a giant fried chicken tender, wing or drumstick that is the same size as your arm!? Not complaining, bc they cook up if anything one of the BEST fried chicken in Melbourne. Batter might be a bit much, but nothing is small and subtle with joe. That crunch from the batter and the juices from that chicken is enough to get you flapping. Loved the corn chowder which paired well with the cheese toastie. Great gravy (we kept ordering these) and coleslaw. No wrong choices here. They’ve got 3 different cuts, 3 different sauces = 9 different variations. Original, hot honey and spicy cayenne but you don’t need to pick bc you can have all. Tenders were soft and tender, and then the drumsticks and wings were dripping 💦 this is by far THE BEST BOTTOMLESS FRIED CHICKEN SERVICE in Melbourne ✨ WED-SAT FROM 5:30PM, for a LIMITED TIME ONLY! invite #melbournefood #melbournefriedchicken #bottomlessfriedchicken #melbournecheapeats #melbournedeli

  3. All fishing trips are memorable........ Some more than others......... I've just returned home from a four day canoe drift that's etched deep due to not only the fish caught and released but also the true beauty of the river system encountered. - The logistics involved in just getting to the launch location were a mission in itself. The first fourty kilometres of river were, let's just say pretty bloody hard!! Over hanging bottle brush for hundreds of metres the norm with many a rapid better negotiated with a long dry portage through the scrub rather than being swept under the over hangs. These were soon forgotten though as some of the bass encountered were the most obese ( I mean that in a good way) wild bass I've seen!!! - These fish I'm sure have not seen the brackish in the winter for some time and I'd also bet they hadn't seen a lure either. I seen no signs of human interaction for the first two days with the only company other than the fish were a few brumbies, water dragons, osprey and snakes. - The biggest bass of the drift went 52cm. I'd of loved to have had a set of scales for a weight as she was an epic specimen!!!!! - An unforgettable solo adventure and a massive thanks to Max Graham for helping make it all happen from the five hours of driving/4wding, helping with logistics to organising a safe place for my vehicle. Your knowledge of the area is second to none and I look forward to returning the favour👍 - #wildfisher #wildriver #australianbass #bass #soloadventure #gotnomates #wildbass #canoedrift #canoemission #lxdsunnies #edgerods #adventure #brumbies #wildaustralia #ozfishunlimited #saxscent #solomission #midnorthcoast @edgerods_official
