Eat at Gazi Restaurant (above). Fast, fun and freakin' delicious. Sit at the bar and watch the chefs preparing modern Greek street food. One of George Calombaris' (of MasterChef Australia fame) most recent openings.

• 2 Exhibition St, Melbourne.


Shop in the Nicholas Building, a beautiful multi-level arcade packed with vintage, hand-made and other one-of-a-kind gems. Also the home of Hidden Secrets Tours, who can expertly guide you through Melbourne's famous laneways.

• 37 Swanston St, Melbourne.


Drink in new bar Romeo Lane, with a cool old-fashioned speakeasy feel and focus on bespoke cocktails.

• 1a Crossley St, Melbourne.


Stay at The Hotel Windsor, where the likes of Lauren Bacall and Katharine Hepburn have slept. Make sure to have breakfast or afternoon tea in the iconic restaurant too.

• 111 Spring St, Melbourne.
