As I get around a fair bit I'd be interested to hear where others like to eat?

One of my personal favourites (and not just for the food, but for the excellent bar) is The Trust in Melbourne. From their website, "The Trust is located in the grandeur of the former Port of Melbourne Authority building, in Flinders Lane between Market Street and William Street. The Trust revels, not only in its historical influences, but as the most prestigious bar and restaurant in this part of Melbourne."

You know mine Daniel, Its Greasy Joes on Ackland St in Melbourne.

I was at Sails on the Bay in St Kilda its very nice too :)

Food-wise, can't go past Musashi in Central. Japanese food and the best dessert menu I've ever seen in an Asian restaurant; I can name them all. The green tea brulee is divine as is the parfait and the black sesame icecream dessert. I've been there I think 5-6 times in the last month or so =P The takoyaki there is excellent too - comes in a entree hotpot with egg as well. Otherwise, I like Wildfire near the Overseas Passenger Terminal too. Will add more as I remember; I reeeeallly like my food.

Oh I'm in Sydney for the rest of the week so I'll try and check out those two recommendations JY :)

The Italian Waiters Club - Meyers Place, in Melbourne, across from Loop Bar. Not fine dining, but a hidden gem with wonderful history and character. You go there to talk and break bread.

Another favourite - Jazushi at Surry Hills. The most gorgeous fusion of French and Japanese with live jazz music and the cosiest intimate atmosphere imaginable. Good in winter, not so much in summer as it's fairly small. Highly recommend the seafood platter and the camembert tempura mmmmmmm. =D

Red Tounge on Brunswick st , Fitzroy, and across the rd is the cocktail bar, its a MUST!

I can recommend Eâcco Bistro, it is my absolute favourite located on Adelaide Street, Brisbane. Their wine list must be seen to be believed!

Wow been a while now and I have to say that Sails has fallen from favour now.
