Melbourne's best breakfasts - Top 10, Anna Spargo-Ryan, The Guardian
- What's everyone's thoughts on that list? I haven't visited any of them - plug for the best of my locals, Fine and Dandy Food Stuffs, I'm not a coffee drinker, but the food is top notch and in a superb location - well positioned to take advantage of the increasing development around Albion & Melville Road, get down there before it gets crowded!
