Amazing Northern Indian cuisine! A pleasure to meet the lovely family behind the cuisine we also had a special treat where Chef Mohammed shared with us his way of cooking with the Tandoori oven. High quality food for an un-proportionally low/reasonable price. Must try!

For sweets, we found a place famous for a dessert known as a vanilla slice. It has a really nice vanilla custard filling and a crispy / flakey outer pastry. We had a few other vanilla slices while in Victoria and this was definitely the best place for it.

While on our trip on the Great Ocean Road, which has spectacular views if you ever get the chance, one of our primary objectives was to visit Grandma Shields Bakery for their award winning meat pies. There are a variety of fillings at Grandma Shields Bakery; we tried a few of their variants of the meat pie, my favorite were definitely the original or the Chunky Steak and Mushroom. All were quite tasty with its tender meat filling and flakey crust. I can see why this is considered by some, their national dish. At the end, we had passed by another interesting food item, the Lamington. Basically a sponge cake that has been dipped in chocolate, to seal in the moisture, and dusted with dried coconut — also quite nice.
