One of Melbourne's Best Mexican Spots Finds a New Home in Brunswick East

Melbourne Central's CDMX only opened last September, but the venue quickly gained a reputation as one of Melbourne’s top Mexican eateries. CDMX is known for its birria taco – a grilled corn tortilla filled with birria-braised beef brisket, salsa, coriander, onion and melted cheese, and served with a birria consommé. (The long, gooey cheese pull when you bite in has also lured fans). Now, the fan-favourite has found a new home on Lygon street. Plus, the perfect spot for a maximalist staycay.

"One of Melbourne's Most Dramatic New Retail Experiences": Up There Store Opens a Subterranean Flagship On Flinders Lane

Up There Store was born in 2010 from a vision to bring the world’s most exclusive trainers and streetwear to Melbourne. Now, 13 years later, Up There has expanded its footprint moving from its McKillop Street boutique to an expansive new 345-square-metre flagship store in Flinders Lane. Melbourne architects Kennedy Nolan were engaged to undertake the transformation and the result is shimmering surfaces of flat and perforated galvanised steel, a palette of saturated colours and intense green flooring reminiscent of a grassy field. There’s also a “funhouse of mirrors” that makes up the sneaker wall. Plus, "it's Thai time" in Melbourne- another stellar Thai eatery opens in the CBD, serving regional Phuket cuisine alongside salty-sweet “Melbourne-style” fried chicken.

Banh Mi With a Difference in Brunswick

When Good Days started selling banh mi during lockdown, they were so popular they’d often sell out via online orders before the doors even opened. Now they're a permanent menu fixture at Good Days Hot Bread, a dedicated banh mi shop that opened this month, further up Sydney Road. While staying true to the core tenets of the French-Vietnamese rolls – pate, mayo, coriander, pickled carrot, cucumber and a protein in a crusty baguette – these interpretations are next-level. Owner Nam Nguyen joins Around Town to discuss the new opening.

Hector’s Deli: Why We’re Moving to a Four-Day Work Week

The hospitality industry has rarely been synonymous with work-life balance. The team at Hector's Deli is determined to be different. The three-store group, known for serving up some of Melbourne’s best sandwiches, recently implemented a four-day work week. The change applies to full-time employees at its three venues in Richmond, Fitzroy and South Melbourne, as well as in its head office. As founder Dom Wilton and CEO Adam Brownell are keen to underscore, this is a permanent change – not a trial. Dom and Adam join us in the studio to discuss the decision.

Old-School Hospitality Meets Modern Mediterranean Cooking at a Brunswick East Eatery and a New Listening Bar for Southside Audiophiles

Entering Stellas, the listening bar upstairs at the Saint Hotel, your eye might be drawn to the green marble bar, to a bartender charring the top of a cocktail with a blowtorch, or to the glamorous people seated around the room. But they all play second fiddle to the towering audiophile-grade speakers. Each one is work of art in itself – and Stellas has two of them, the first pair ever built.
