Melbourne - Day 7 (Eastland)

Image
We decided to stay at home and rest well before we fly back to Sydney the next day. Chyme worked from home today and in order not to disturbed her, we had our lunch at Eastland just 10 minutes walking distance (950m) from her house. We had Mexican food at Pacos Tacos. I ordered their set lunch comes with 2 tacos, salad and drink. My my partner on the other hand ordered quesadilla (toasted wheat tortilla filled with your choice of chicken, beef, pork, black beans or mushrooms with cheese, pico de gallo, picked onion, jalapenos and chipotle ali oli). I choose Carne (beef tacos) and pollo (chicken tacos). I preferred their chicken tacos because the chicken is tender and juicy.

You may choose any two of the below tacos for your set lunch: a) Carne - slow cooked beef brisket, chipotle salsa, pico de gallo and cactus b) Pollo - BBQ chicken with lettuce, pickled onion and tomatillo ch...

There's complimentary ketchup, mustard, relish and onions. It's good and there's even free soda refills. Basically that's what we had for our lunch that day. At night, Chyme cooked us dinner. We had steamed fish with salted vegetables, sour plums, white tofu, tomato, ginger and garli...

Chyme purposely baked us a banana cake the night before so that we can have it for breakfast the next day. I'm so touched and almost cried. Hahaha... okay okay... I'm just exaggerating. Even though it's not the best banana cake that I had, it's the thought that counts. :) She planned to bring us to Brighton beach and St Kilda beach since it's a Sunday. So we left home around 10am and by the time we reached Brighton beach it's almost 11am. Brighton beach is well know for its colourful beach boxes. Weather wasn't really promising that day and it rained while we're at Brighton beach.
