MY CITY

I live in Richmond, or as I call it the Island of 3121. It has a distinct flavour and culture that is friendly and welcoming. Nowhere else in Melbourne will people greet each other so spontaneously.

FAVOURITE FOOD MEMORY

Broken rice with pork chop at my favourite Vietnamese restaurant Van Mai. Been going there so long the kids that scuttled around their parents are now running the place and décor has barely changed.

FAVOURITE BAR   

Bouzy Rouge on Bridge Rd Richmond. The host Jose sees me coming and breaks out his best Rose!

DRINK THAT DESCRIBES YOU

Mulled wine, spicy, fruity and mysterious in origin, a drink that creeps up on you.

BEST HANGOVER CURE

Sleep and the broken rice dish from Van Mai

BEST INTERSTATE BAR

The Centennial Hotel Sydney because I will always see people from my childhood growing up in the eastern suburbs.

FAVOURITE WINE 

Chateau Tahbilk and their Marsanne.

FAVOURITE WINERY 

Chateau Tahbilk the oldest family owned winery in Victoria and the most welcoming

NEXT DESTINATION 

 Zimbabwe because my little house in the wilderness is always waiting for me.
