Students when in Melbourne there are some foods that you need to adapt to, particularly if you are from an Asian country.
Here are some Melbourne foods and trends that you need to adapt to when living here.
1) Pork Belly Sandwich- never has a day gone by when I have not been in a cafe that does not serve this as most cafes do nowadays.
2) The Roti wrap. It is just roti bread filled with all sorts of things inside. Like a normal wrap except thicker
3) Mexican food- most cafes now have this option and Melbourne has a lot of Mexican food such as Tacos, Burritos, Nachos etc. Now I have tried Nachos before and basically they are chips served with salsa and sour cream and guacamole. You would use your hands for this hence it is messy.
4) Organics- a lot of cafes have now gone organic which means that some of the food maybe more expensive.
5) Baked eggs- I tried this about two years and love it. It is a full meal within itself and it comes in bowl with tomatoes, eggs and maybe beans and chorizo (Spanish sausage). It is a spicy dish and its meant to be.
6) Pides- yum. They are basically Turkish bread with filling inside.
7) Soldiers- they are just thick pieces of toast cut into strips. You can drip it into the yolk of a hard boiled egg
8) Paella- this is a Spanish rice dish. It also has seafood in this.
9) The gastropub burgers with chips. I've noticed that this is a trend lately. The first time I tried it was at Red Brick Road and it was actually very filling. Its like your average burger but smaller.
10) Bombolini- these are Melbourne's handmade doughnut balls. Yum
