If you could buy a brewery a beer you should definitely get one in for Mountain Goat, the micro brewery of micro breweries and the local success story behind an explosion of excellent craft beers. Since you can't give a red brick warehouse a beer you should definitely bring your mates on Wednesday and Friday nights for terrific pizzas and all Goat beers on tap – including one-off speciality batches. Wednesday nights also provide a chance to take a tour and chat to the brewers making your beer. Cheers to that.

Not only on top of spaghetti, but also atop Italian beans, creamy polenta and potato smash. That's where you'll find these meatballs. Choose your ball type – pork, beef, chicken, fish or veg – your sauce, then as the menu instructions go, choose a little something for them to sit on. The Richmond sibling of the swish Flinders Lane flagship, this Meatball and Wine Bar serves up just what it says, just as well.

One of my favourite restaurants in Melbourne. Great mouth watering food, delicious cocktails and such a lovely vibe.
The all-day restaurant and shady courtyard are the perfect setting for a fresh and exotic menu that straddles South East Asia. There are Vietnamese, Thai and Lao favourites alongside new flavours to dazzle your tastebuds. And that's without mentioning the unconventional, dangerously moreish cocktails and, er, the desserts. The desserts. You had us at kaffir lime ice magic.
