    It was surveyed as a village in 1840, near the junction of the Diamond Creek and the Yarra River and is home to a densely treed region dubbed ‘the green wedge’ or ‘Melbourne’s lungs’. The main street and shopping area meld city sophistication with country charm. On our tour we get to breathe in the freshness of the native flora and flora while we explore the history and flavours of the local bakers, butchers, coffee makers and restaurants.

    Met our guide Christine at the Immigration Museum. She was very personable, informative and had many funny anecdotes to amuse us along the way, After showing us through the museum, the foodie tour stared in earnest. We began with Vietnamese street food, then on for some dumplings in China town. Along the way Christine showed us through some amazing buildings and gave us a running commentary on how each of the different cultures have helped to shape the city of Melbourne. Then on to taste some wonderful Indian food, with more anecdotes. Federation Square was next where we had an amazing feed of Octopus, Emu and pickled watermelon. Just when we thought we couldn't eat anymore, we topped it off with gelato. A truly amazing tour which I highly recommend. Thanks Christine for an exceptional experience.

    I went for a Melbourne Foodie Culture tour and to be very honest, I had some of the most amazing food and experience! I've always been a fan of collecting stories and this trip was exactly that! It's well-curated, takes into consideration your food preferences, takes you to the best spots in town, I think my favourite was the Aboriginal Food Joint where we had some authentic aboriginal food and the ending where we met someone who'd gone to a gelato - school to learn how to make gelato! There are sooo many cultures here in Melbourne and it was a pure delight to be able to access them all in a span of 4 hours along with so many stories! I got some great stories for my IG - @capturesmagic so tbh FOODIE TRAILS - YOU ARE MAGIC ✨ thank you for the experience!

    If you haven’t been on a food tour with @foodietrailsau then my friend, you’re missing out on a lot in exploring the hidden gems, local culture, fantastic small businesses, untold history of a certain places in Melbourne. This time we went a Flemington foodie trail and boy oh boy, we learnt so much, enlightened with so many unknown facts about this place and local businesses, met so many kind, wonderful business owners and their stories. We went on a eating spree from one authentic cuisine to another, like rice paper rolls @phohouse3031 Somalian food at New Somali Kitchen, dumplings @ilovedumplingsmelbourne Turkish delights and sweets at a Turkish place and drinks @douttagallahotel also stopped at so many other local businesses like an artisan butcher, sustainable and eco friendly products shop, Asian grocery and a lovely cafe. It was a 4 hour tour of exploring so much new and old. Also our host Himanshi @foodietrailsau is so knowledgeable, kind and very charming who enlightened us about the history and unknown facts about Flemington. I absolutely adored her personality and she is an amazing human, you’d love to learn a lot from her and spend time with her on this tour. So guys make a booking today, it’s only $65 and you get to take home so many goodies and eat to your heart’s content. Totally worth it. @foodietrailsau Flemington, Victoria, Australia
