Melbourne December 2008 – The Interesting Places
These are shots that didn’t really fit into a narrative but the scenes struck my fancy when I saw them and photos were taken. Above you can see one of the Flinders Street Station entrances taken at night.
And this is the shop across from it, Lord of the Fries. Catchy name, but didn’t have the chance to try them out though.
Some parts of Crown casino are your typical casino garishness but some parts of it ooze clean and sharp classiness like this …
There’s this shop called Magnation which sells nothing but magazines and design books …
And you can buy a coffee and browse as much as you want.
There’s another shop called Minotaur …
which sells rows upon rows of TV/Sci-Fi, anime/manga, and comics related stuff …
including DVDs, hats, T-shirts, knick-knacks and figures.
It was raining most of the time that I was in Melbourne but check out the crowd in front of Myer one fine rainy day.
Next up, my final post in this series where it’s all about the food and the drinks.

OMG you didn’t eat Lord of the Fries?!?!? OMG OMG OMG.
You missed out! My fav is Fries + Pouttaine + Cheese – absolutely to die for! NM – next time hey
Kitty: yes I know. It’s just that everytime we walk past there, we’ve either eaten or drank too much to wanna eat.
mirebella: yes yes, will definitely try it next time!
Wow, the Lord of the Fries look very tempting.
Michael: it was! Yeah it’s too bad I didn’t get to try it this time. Next time for sure.
Agreed with mirebella…you should have tried the Poutine!
Lord of the Fries makes chips like you local fish and chip shop (read: double fried for extra goodness). But without the stale oil taste of your local fish and chippy!
