It's a simple one this week. Inspired by the incessant buzzing and droning the bay side suburbs from Port Melbourne to St Kilda endure during the Melbourne Grand Prix, I give you - The Aussie Mozzie. Down a few dozen of these the night before and I (almost) guarantee you will sleep through those early morning practice laps. And whilst the recipe might seem to hark back to early drinking experiences, mixing anything together from your parent's liquor cabinet, it is actually quite refreshing.

Located in Melbourne's Centre Place, Jungle Juice is a definite standout and arguably one of Melbourne's smallest cafes. With menus pasted on the inner covers of Golden Books stepping inside could almost make you feel like Alice in Wonderland. Jungle Juice focuses their food around fresh bagels and soups. You can get breakfast bagels including a Mc Bagel or for lunch try their legendary club sandwich

I was driving to a friends place on the weekend and stumbled across a great new store Modern History. The place is a treasure trove of great quality pieces dating from the 50's through to the 70's.
This is the first Melbourne venture for owners Charles and Paul who have been in the mid century game for around 10 years. Their focus primarily is on Melbourne made mid-century furniture by designers such as Zoureff, Rosando, Krimper, Featherston, Module, TH Brown, Danish Deluxe and alike. The guys are also really into English mid-century furniture and design and source extensively throughout the UK. I had my heart broken by a few really special pieces.
