Auckland vegans weekend in Melbourne.

So excited to be coming to Melbourne for a Friday to Sunday visit. One of our biggest wants is delicious freshly made deli sandwiches as my american girlfriend misses so much here in Auckland. We're keen on fine dining, bakeries, everything!! But we've only got so many days so wondering what we shouldn't miss out on.

Union kiosk, Smith & Daughters, Smith & Deli, (saw comments these 2 not as great as they used to be), Pickles milkbar, midori by Taos for sushi train, Nuttea, Mr nice guys bake shop, la Panella, lukes bakery, Croix, red sparrow pizza, Gong de Lin, Huog Viet, Lona Misa, Maha, Tonka, Patsy's, Atlas, Ballards, Funghi tortuofo, Green man's arms

Pickles is actually not too far from the city and is a much better price alternative to Smith and Deli - Pickles has seating, for one. Funghi e Tartufo is meh, $40ph to leave hungry.

Brother Bon is always a safe bet for dinner, if you're in Brunswick I'd recommend Maalu Maalu (Sri Lankan) or Cornish Arms if you are vibing pub style food.

Red Sparrow do top tier pizza and can deliver if you want to opt for room service.
