MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA - Welcome to Melbourne, Victoria, Australia! Today we’re going to answer the question - what is Australian Food? This is my first trip to Australia, so I’m excited to explore and to eat my way through Melbourne.
Thank you to all my friends in the video:
Huge thank you to Chef Nick and Tess from HER Melbourne (her.melbourne/) for hosting me in Melbourne and for taking me around.
Chef Nick: / nick_bennett_sourdough
Tess: / _tessstewart
Also a huge thank you to Sofia Levin ( / sofiaklevin ) for showing us some of the best food in Melbourne!
Here’s the full Australian food tour:
1: South Melbourne Market - goo.gl/maps/6Vefo5Ez1gNeDP5E6
We’re starting out at South Melbourne Market to try some of the local foods available. Starting with jam donuts, meat pies, seafood, a quick oyster shot, and finally the legendary dim sim!
2. Industry Beans - goo.gl/maps/ZEnA2so2xScVQ4CM9
Next up on this Australian food tour we’re having coffee - and in Melbourne they take coffee culture seriously.
3. Terror Twilight - goo.gl/maps/CcBrVwo1qrdZGECM6
Just like coffee culture, Australian brunch culture is very strong, and they have influenced the world with brunch, and of course - avocado toast.
4: Big Esso (Mabu Mabu) - goo.gl/maps/5WrjENeqZS8VojrU7
I wouldn’t want to make a video about what Australian food is without original indigenous Australian food. Big Esso is one of the few true Australian restaurants where Chef Nornie Bero from the Torres Straits serves modern Australian dishes using only local ingredients. Emu, saltbush, and green ants!
5: The Napier Hotel: goo.gl/maps/8VguVAZWeVJFMBoM7
Another part of Australian food culture is the Australian pub. Along with a classic Aussie meat pie, chicken parma (or kangaroo parma), don’t miss the giant Bogan Burger.
6: Gerald's Bar - goo.gl/maps/eJGXgUfKB3fvqXxo7
Next up on this food tour we’re going to a local neighborhood wine bar, a favorite in Melbourne.
7: Supper Inn - goo.gl/maps/rKnZMu8uNzRCrX9y5
Lastly, one of the biggest parts of Australia is the diversity and people from around the world who have migrated to Australia, including many Chinese. Melbourne is home to a substantial Chinatown and we’re eating at one of the absolutely classics.
Although there’s so much more to learn, this was an introduction to learning what Australian food is!

Never thought I’d see Mark Weins here in Australia. This feels surreal.
never thought i'd see him making out with a pie so aggressively.
Haha yes! I'm finding it incredibly surreal also! 😂
Huge waste of his time and effort, what an absolute hole
You guys are an entire continent, why wouldn’t he visit you guys?
@@lachlanfarah5180 also WTF is wrong with you?
Mark finally visits Australia WOOOOOOO!! 🇦🇺
Someone finally visited
@@mrb2643 lol 🤣
Welcome to my country bro :), I’m not sure if I would have gone with all the fried crap first lol, I wouldn’t even say most is ‘iconic’ Aussie other the meat pie lol, so sorry for that lol. You want to see the best of Australia then make your way up to Queensland :).
@@trentsmith5631 Agreed mate
Nothing to see in australia all its food you can find anywhere in the world 😂what a boring country
Oh Mark. You got played. The first bite of a meat pie is always a small, tentative one, just enough to let the steam out in the filling, so as to do a temp check so you DON'T burn your mouth.
Loved this video. Hope you come back soon!
Yep! Plus you need to utilise the tin, fold it down & near use it like a giant spoon... he massacred it lol.
Great analysis. I'm sure he was told, by his group of 10 work colleagues including his guide.
Agree
@@jessicarocks1329 idk about using the tin as spoon lol
This dude has a mouth of steel. He doesn't care. Seen him eat hot asf chillies like they're nothing?
How brave of you to tackle Australia, Mark. Modern Australian food is a fusion of all the cultures and cuisines that have migrated here made with the best ingredients, all grown here. Australia has been known to be a chefs paradise, there isnt anything you cant get here. We have been blessed to be so multicultural.
Lol that's not Australian though😂
@@WoodysOpinion101 hahaha well, there are restaurants which showcase local ingredients gathered as bush tucker so it definitely exists. More of it are in fine dining establishments. Dont know anywhere else in the world where they eat Kangeroos, Emu's and Crocodiles all in the one place. We have local berries and spices also. You can get Kangeroo anywhere here though :) An Australian dish would appear on a restaurant menu like seared kangeroo fillet over a bed of mash, with local berry jus and some sort of lemon myrtle mousse...some fancy like that 😂 all Australian ingredients but cooked in Haute style lol 😁
@@WoodysOpinion101 if it's made here, by Australians, with Australian ingredients in an Australian interpretation, I'm pretty sure it's Australian. It's like saying Mexican isn't Mexican because it's Spanish influences or Bahn mi isn't Vietnamese because it only exists because the French occupied Vietnam.
جميل أحسنت أحببت تعليقك❤
Take a walk through few markets in SE Asia and you will see fruits and veges that you have never seen before.
The dude has finally done it. Down under! 💪
Wait till je tries out Aussie chillies. They have umami.
Yas fiiiinally!! And our beautiful food capital Melbourne, how wonderful! Have a lovely time Mark and I’d love to see you do a good tour here. Tasmanian honeys are stunning, our Northern Territory is home of our First Nation residents with a beautiful selection of gourmet delicacies. Queensland has mouth watering seafood and an array of Australian tropical berries and foliage. There’s so much and so many regions to celebrate the food culture here. Welcome Mark, Ying and Mica 🫶🥰
How woke…
@@CaptainRedBeardarrr He got very woke in Pakistan, when lucky is not from Vietnam to have twin kids. And made in AU to have an restaurant.
Just wanted to clarify. Kangaroos are NOT a feral pest, they are a native animal to Australia. They form an integral part of the ecosystem in Australia. I studied environmental science and work in conservation and land management in Australia. It is true that eating kangaroo in Australia is a more sustainable form of meat than beef.
Actual feral animals introduced to Australia that are non native and overgraze landscapes include rabbits, goats, deer, pigs and a few others.
I absolutely love your videos Mark and watch them religiously.
Since I live in Australia, I did think that the choices of food places for this episode were a bit average.
To end on a positive note, I’m happy you are in oz and creating content here!
Thank you, I came here to say this. Kangaroos are not feral pests that destroy the natural environment as stated by your guide. Farmers don’t like them but let’s be honest farmers are not friends to the local wildlife.
Yes they are feral pests. Maybe you guys do need to speak to people on the land to get the real view of kangaroos. Sipping on a latte in Fitzroy probably obscure your judgement.
ajsaces, I am a country person , lived on the land all my life. Been a professional kangaroo shooter, and I can tell you now Kangaroos can be pests in some areas however, they are native animals and not ferals as pigs, goats etc.
Yeah this girl "guide" needs to be fact checked.
I was SHOCKED when she said that. They are only a "PEST" to farmers farming EUROPEAN crops - which are a huge food source that naturally the NATIVE Australian Kangaroos will try to eat. TBH this entire episode really irked me because she basically presented the "Educated Melbourne Hipster Elite Affluent" version of "Australian Cuisine". Even the bloody Dim Sims looked "Bougie"...
such a polite guy, he will eat anything unless its outright inedible
Honestly living in Melbourne most of my life - watching this video really makes you appreciate your home! Melbourne is amazing
I saw you eating dinner in the city and waved through the window. I walked past the window of the restaurant and had to double take because I thought I may have been hallucinating when i saw the 'i travel for food' t shirt. Had no idea that Mark was in Melbourne and it was the most surreal thing 😂
As a New Zealander, the best meat pies are from small business bakeries - cheap and delish! Loved the video, would love to see you visit NZ!
Oh hell no ow new zealand pies are 10 times better and our meat lol 😅
@Hectic New Zealand meat pies are sooooo much better than any pie you get in australia. Its not even a competition. You can barely even find a pie in australia. NZ pies are literally on every corner.
But it thought all the kiwis have migrated to Australia?? what will he visit in NZ? 😂
That pie looked average as, pastry not very flaky on top and falling apart below. Yuck
Unlikely. NZ is insignificant.
The way you ate that pie wasn't far off the old pie in the face gags only you were doing it to yourself! Great vid!
I did laugh at your polite response to sausage rolls & that Sth Melb Market Dim Sim....IYKYK 🤣 you just copped the 2 worst things we have to offer but it's all uphill from there!!! Yay!!
Sth Melb markets is great at night but mainly it's amazing to buy your fresh produce to cook at home. Agatha Patisserie Pandan Croissants needs to be on your to eat list though!
That sneaky fart killed me 😄 🤣 40:01
It was obviously someone pulling out a chair. Grow up SMH
@khobe Briant it wasn't a chair at all
OMG at section 7:25 I noticed your son,, my God I remember when your wife and you were carrying him around in the carryall :) has it really been that many years that I have been watching you :) Wahoooo I love your video's LOL
Australia has the best coffee (maybe outside italy) and cafe food. Their cafes have actually good food. Fresh produce as well love australia
Guys I'm in love with Sofia, her smile is contagious and her energy is electric. Idk what to 😭👉👈
I’ve never seen anyone maul a pie like that 😂😂. That’s a well enjoyed meal.
He needs some lessons on how to hold it 👍🤣
Hahaha I was so thinking that when I saw him dive in.
The pie fell apart on the first bite. No one wants that. We want to be able to eat it witout having hot pie filling burn our hands and stain our clothes. 0 out of 10 for the pie.
Mark, You are a Respectful Class act. I would love to see Ying and Micah enjoy the food as well. Please stay safe💚
I've lived in Australia for 40 years and I've never heard Tomato sauce called 'dead horse' :) Great video though.
Please come to Canada soon, Mark! We would love to have you here! I hope to see it in my lifetime
Hey Mark, I'm glad that you are visiting Australia. Please make videos in all of the major cities. Thank you for keeping all of your videos free of any profanity. God Bless You, Ying, and Micah and family!!!!
Thank you very much Roderick!
@@MarkWiens I hope you believe in Jesus Christ because he loves you. I enjoy watching your videos btw.
@@floethiopiawit3921 He is a Christian, in fact his parents are missionaries.
@@SnowClover oh that’s great!
@@MarkWiens I can see you are really having a great time in Australia
Really liked that lady. Great smile. She was dope. She made sure she gave flowers to the original people of the land
Yeah, very pretty and hospitable. Great pair - up as a co host
I freaking love ham n cheese, THAT LOOKS SOOOOO GOOD
So nice to see his Son, God bless him!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Mark is so a positive human, i watched the whole episode. Greetings from Germany!
Thank you very much Hans!
Excited for this Australia 🇦🇺 food tour. Watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲. Thanks mark!
its Australian Food* Btw
You should come and visit us in Melbourne Australia if we didn’t live in a dictatorship, I’m sure you would love us and our food. It’s just our government tier you won’t like, as many of us don’t. But we would welcome you, wholeheartedly
👍
@@nswemergencyphotography14He knows that …. Brains 🧠
@@maria2162 You live in a democracy.You had an opportunity to change your government but the electorate voted to retain the sitting party.Which indicates, despite what you think, the government is extremely popular.
Love the little changes you've been making in content creation. Light subtle changes. Been huge follower since 2016,Mark.
As an Australian I have to point out that the "real" Australian meat pie/sausage roll/dimmie experience is from a petrol station or lunch bar. It won't be as good as what mark had but it's what most people would eat. The versions they showed in this video were more upmarket fancier versions. P.s I've never actually met anyone call tomato sauce dead horse.
Heaps of the older gen call tomato sauce "dead horse". You don't buy dimmies at a servo- buy them at a fish and chips shop!
"As an Australian" completely ignore this suggestion lmao servo pies do bot rep us. We go to bakeries or even a cafe they're everywhere absolutely no one is eating over priced sevo pies unless they have to lol. Do the exact opposite of this comment.
petrol station pies and sausage rolls are bad.. go to your local asian bakery, they maken the best
@@Loft-pm6lk agree!
@@Loft-pm6lk it's not a suggestion it's an observation
As an Australian, I think what makes the food great is that, especially in Melbourne and Sydney there's endless restaurants making authentic food from all over the world. However, I've lived in Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. Melbourne has the best coffee. You can get great coffee in any Australian city, but Melbourne is consistently good. The other cities have their highs and lows.
Yeah the Thai and Chinese restaurant down the street is good. Next street serves good British Fish & Chips.
Thank you for the insights Soggy, Melbourne coffee is impressive!
The coffee in Melbourne is far superior than in other cities. I live in Sydney now, and the coffee here comes close but not as good as Melbourne coffee
@@bendelbridge where’s your go to coffee place in Sydney? I have challenges finding a quality one that matches Melbourne’s elite
@@browseyoutube5569 that’s a tough one. I’m based in the south western suburbs and work in Bankstown Airport, Mascot and North Sydney. I normally stick to one in Georges Hall called “wild child” which is quite popular. When in north Sydney I tend to go to “Ku Tamper” which is also very good
Australian food is now basically the world on a plate nowadays
Yes, because besides Aboriginal cuisine, it's just criminal outcast UK "cuisine." Which is wot? Fish n' Chippies or an English Brekkie? Pffffft
@@mistamowgli513 aboriginal cuisine lol
Fresh frozen
Adult children
Alone together and
Aboriginal cuisine
Thanks for the laugh
@@oftin_wong what’s so funny about aboriginal cuisine. What the hell do think people ate before the filthy convicts took over? Seriously?
@@mistamowgli513 we have people from all over the world here so we have every type of cuisine under the sun. Yes we love our fish and chips but who doesn't. and brekky is cigs and a cuppa.
My Grandparents are from Italy so im eating pasta twice a week
most british food has now been replaced with 3 choices kebab curry or Chinese,I'm literally the only person in the uk that still cooks real british food,outside in the street,there are literally 3 choices,I remember our government needed to diversify more and more and now it's so diverse just british food is not diverse, so that's all gone in the rubbish bin,being white too is not diverse, put us all in the rubbish bin
Sofia seems like she throw around good vibrations 24/7, always a big smile
As usual what an entertaining video! Australian food is a new(ish) world interpretation of old world cuisine with so much creativity, generosity and taste, Mark does an amazing job in his interpretation and illustration and his co-host is also knowledgeable, charming and charismatic! Works up an appetite...🤤
When Mark just nods after a bite he really doesn’t like it he’s being nice., But when he leans back after a bite it’s 🔥 😂😂😂
I agree. He has a tell.
See the key is to give him enough beer and wine so that he is already leaning before he starts eating :D
So true. Mark, just so you know, we know when u don't really like the food 😂😂
He's not used to western comfort food, for me that pie looks amazing (specially living in a cold climate) but he'd probably find it a bit bland and stodgy
as an aussie i felt satisfied by how you placed the seasoning
Proven
as a kiwi, I was a little disturbed by the grip on the pie, as I imagine some aussies would be. But this is a great video overall.
@@miolner88 he squashed it 😂
as an aussie, the only things in that video that I have ever eaten and consider Australian are the dim sim, the pie and the parma.
Heard your farts sound like a didgeridoo when you eat bad Australian food
If you’re still in Melbourne you must go to the best kebab shop in Australia it’s called “KATIK” and their specialty is called “Adana”
Love your videos, and glad you came to Australia, as a chef and someone who worked in the kangaroo industry it was good to see you got to try kangaroo. But that lady should not be giving bullshit information. Yes the kangaroo gets overpopulated because of the conditions created by agriculture, and yes at times those numbers damage crops, but kangaroos are not feral pests they are a native animal, if she doesn’t know that perhaps she should learn that first before acknowledging indigenous people, theirs more to their culture than just saying I acknowledge them
I appreciate Mark's appreciation and politeness, because of none of the food at South Melb market is really good
😂😂
He's made millions of dollars making believe.
Probably here as a sponsored visit. I can't see anything worth investigating for him over here, in a culinary sense.
Hi, Welcome to Melbourne CrystalJade eat DimSim yamcha
Mark Wiens I'm telling you right now that you have to visit Adelaide! It's The ULTIMATE Festival State, and the food, attractions, scenery, and hospitality is AMAZING.
So great to finally meet you face to face in Melbourne!! Hope you’ve enjoyed our city, our culture and our food!
Thank you Jacky, great to meet you as well!
Lucky dude, it would make my day running into Mark the OG
Why are so many, so salty in the comments. Quite pathetic. Love the show Mark. Don't forget Tasmania, New Zealand, Fiji. So many unique islands to see also, If of course you have the time...
SOMEONE TAKE THIS MAN TO EAT A MIXED SNACK PACK WITH BBQ GARLIC AND CHILLI SAUCE ASAAAP
Audible fart at 40:01 - must have been all that roo
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
To be critical, a little too trendy, upmarket, and misrepresented. Missing some of the real Aussie tucker (from outside of Fitzroy! Yes, I said it!), the likes of gummy shark, king george whiting, rabbit, prawns, potato cakes (potato scallops/fritters), and vanilla slice. Anyway, love your stuff Mark. Keep going fella 👍
Mark come over to New Zealand and try Maori-Kiwi foods too
Yep...I second that!
Yes, I would love to, hoping to plan a trip soon to New Zealand.
thats great, hoping to see you soon @Mark Weins. NZ has great foods to try. Im a big fan of yours 🤗
@@MarkWiens Rotorua is the place you need to visit! Youll get all the authetic food there
Ahhhh soo cool! hopefully you don't get some city slicker marshmallow guide🤞🏽
Looking forward to that vid
I like the way Marks face light's up after every bite, he is a happy customer.
It seems like a cultivated affectation. He adjusts his behaviour to maximise engagement.
This was fascinating! I really had no idea what Australian food was all about and this was the best deep dive!
Micah lucky little boy to travel with his parents see different cultures.
Welcome to my hometown Mark! Loved the variety of the food you tried. Can't beat Melburnian coffee and brunch :) Welcome back anytime!
Thank you very much Eunice!
Thank you Mark, I have watched most of Australian videos now, I feel very proud that you have enjoyed the cultural diversity of our food and culture, you have surrounded yourself with exceptional Australian food guides, and they have given you a great invite to our food culture, our home is your home
Can't go wrong with a classic meat pie!
Mark, you went to Australia!!!! That is my dream, I have been wanting to go forever and visit the Australia zoo but thanks to you I have other places I need to visit. Thank you, this was so amazing. You did a wonderful job showing a side of Australia that others haven’t seen.
Thank you very much Frannie, appreciate it!
Australia Zoo is something you have to experience, it has been created with such love for the animals.
Yes!! You are finally here!! You're the best Mark. Hope you and your beautiful family enjoy your time down under. 😃
Mark is a superstar wherever he goes haha.
C. minute 5:00: Mark, a simple tip is to walk/travel with your own re-usable cutlery (even just a spoon and a fork. That way, you can cut hot, dripping things like the meat pie into neat little mouthfuls . . . without messing your hands....or your clothes....or the floor.....and without burning your mouth by taking too much at once..... Eco-friendly approach to food and travel.
I like how Mark appreciates almost all the food he puts in his mouth…
Hi mark I'm so glad you made it to Australia 🇦🇺 hope you had an awesome time celebrating our culture..
Food is bland & basic,nothing new
Thank you very much Doreen!
@@superfly7160 you’re basic and nothing new
Welcome to Australia! You've really hit the ground running with this Aussie food tour! So many iconic dishes and great seeing Aboriginal food represented. Now you need to try a lamington 😋
These weren't Australian foods.
He hasn't hit the ground running at all.
What a joke of a comment.
They where not traditional aboriginal food it was a mush mash of lefty food grub from yuppie Melbourne people. Cant stand the chick either she has no idea what is the real Australian and real Aussie food.
@@Prof.Pwnalot why so angry mate, what's up?
Australia food as bad as UK? Cause I agree , did not seem Australian. No vegimite was a red flag
Amazing never thought of the Australian delicacy. Thanks Mark for such experiences!
Mark is probably shocked with the prices in Melbourne and left after day 2. 🤣
Hey Mark, welcome to Australia. Nice video of you tasting "the best" Melbourne has to offer, yes the coffee in Melb is good, no denying that. Time for you to come and indulge in the variety of tastes in Sydney, dont forget to visit our beautiful harbour and sandy beaches.
Really loved this video Mark! Kudos!
I'm so glad that you came to Melbourne and actually did things people from Melbourne do
My Dad grew up in Port Melbourne, and the South Melbourne market Dim Sim is legendary. I remember as a young kid some 30 plus years ago, Dad taking me to the markets to get a massive Dim Sim and a Jam Donut. Welcome to Australia, Mark. Have fun mate
Cool to hear that Nico, glad this brought back memories!
@@MarkWiens the Dim Sim originally was a recipe by Chinese immigrant William Chen Wing and his company Wing Lee with the South Melbourne version being a later version. Classic Australian Chinese food!
I have to admit I don’t remember the Dim Sims at South Melbourne market when I was a kid, there was an amazing fry place though. Does anyone remember that fries place?
Never seen anyone eat a meat pie so messy like that lol love it
I have no issues with loving your own city, and Melbourne is a great foodie city. I just don’t think it’s necessary to do it in a way that talks down other places. All Australian cities have fantastically diverse food to offer. Just enjoy it without snubbing the others.
I’m glad the Sydney fast food video didn’t do the same.
Another world class episode Mark. Thank you!
Great episode. So glad you're finally here! Welcome to Australia 🇦🇺
Omg Mark you are in Australia, and in particular my city of Melbourne 😍 I’m so happy you got to visit here and experience our beautiful country. I hope you were treated well and you had a fantastic time, I wished I could have met up with you and the family.
Oh cool, glad to hear you're from Melbourne, I really enjoyed it, Thank you very much!
@@MarkWiens yes I’m in Melbourne Mark. So happy you came and I love the Victoria markets it’s so lively, the food selection is great too.
Welcome to Australia Mark!
I have been waiting for this video for a long time! :)
Wow who would have thought Mark would be in Australia! Welcome!! 🇦🇺
Glad you finally made it to our shores Mark!!
Not enough bloggers come to Australia to experience our fresh and superior produce. Modern Australian Food is the fusion of multicultural Australia. It’s what makes Australia such a success story.
I hope you also managed to fit in Sydney into your busy itinerary to savour our food and dining scene in Australia’s global city.
Thank you very much, yes we made it to Sydney!
australia is too far away from the rest of the world
@@kosan2875 you could say the same about when we travel to Europe or any other destination in the world. Yes, it’s a pain in the arse but us Australians are willing to fly up to 24-36hrs to experience other parts of the world
You guys make my beef
Mark's been there already,England lol
Been a subscriber and fan for years so very chuffed you’ve made it to my country.
I hope you’ve had a good time.
So glad you made it here to the best food city in Australia, glad you enjoyed!
Love your videos Mark, so much happiness, passion and love. Keep up the great work and lifestyle. Welcome to Australia mate! 🙏🏽🙌🏽💯💙
I love the enthusiasm- and Ming making Mark eat more, LOL
Nice episode. Having lived in Australia a few years… my experience is that Melbourne has the best variety of foods / dining options at a wide range of prices. Glad you featured First Nations food.
I am inspired to travel the world, I watch your videos everyday all the way from South Africa Cape Town. I love every content you create.
Mark I’m so inspired by you and want to follow in your foot steps and enjoy the wonderful food in this world.. best wishes to you and your lovely family.
Good to see you here mark hope you enjoy the Aussie culture
I was hoping you’d make it to Australia Mark. I was there for a year studying zoology and I didn’t want to leave. I hope you and your family have as much fun as I did and enjoy at least one of their over 600 National parks (most of any country in the world). Safe travels!
Thank you very much Leon, great to hear that. We did visit a few national parks, but I wanted to visit so many more, beautiful country!
WOW!!!! ...This video is making me begin to plan my next vacation to AUTRALIA!!! ...GREAT VIDEO MARK!!
Best episode ever. Fascinating stuff. Love your content Mark.
Welcome to Australia ! I thought you’d never come. Have a great time !
This guy makes me feel like I've travelled all over the world
I'm very excited that you tried some native Australian food! Personally my favorite native ingredient is Quondongs also known as a wild peach. It's very bitter raw but people will usually turn it in to a jam or bake it into a pie and it's increadible. It grows wild almost everywhere in Australia and I wish more people would give it a go.
Where'd you recommend to get it? Anywhere in Melbourne?
@@dhashabalachandran6356 I'm not too sure where to get it in Melbourne, but it's easily available for online purchase both in it's jam form and as dried fruit (can be placed in water over night and will rehydrate into fresh usable form) If you're looking to try for the first time I reccomend the jam first.
I am a migrant residing in Sydney but currently in Bulgaria as Australians love to travel &take their tastebuds around the world Camel 🐫 has become popular in Oz& often served during Ramadan festival Glad you visited Big Esso&I believe in Melbourne there is a popular indigenous fusion restaurant&the best pie 🥧 awards recently happened,cheers&thanks 🍻
Welcome to Australia! Nice to have you visit 😂 🇦🇺
I wish my self one day will be visiting your country.
👍
Thank you!
Mark and Ying, I've been to Melbourne twice, I had a great time on both occasions. Your latest edition in Austraila just gave me another reason to visit again, sooner than later. Those places, Supper Inn, Gerald's bar, etc. will be a must for us to soak in and enjoy. Thank you for our expertise! Vjet Sevilla, Chino Hills, CA.
Wonderful Mark, for your visit of Melbourne!!! There was some great iconic places like South Melbourne Dim Sim , Industry Bean , Supper Inn, Federation Square & Pub Hotel...
I swear Mark gets younger and more affable with each episode!
Because he get sto eat great food. How could he not be Healthy lol
By far one of your best videos, Mark. And so glad it could be right here in my own country. Welcome Mate !
As a chef from Melbourne who religiously watches your videos it’s so amazing to see you and your family made it here! Cheers mate!
Im so glad you finally visited us in Australia!!!
This is a great video. Australia looks like a fun and beautiful country with people who like to have a good time!
Tackled that pie like it was holding the ball 🏈 Aussie Aussie Aussie 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Love this, you hit some great spots in Melbourne, props to your guides!
Absolutely loved watching this!
You can't go wrong with a good old smashed avo and awesome coffee in Melbourne! Loved this! 🙌🏻
It’s about time the man came to Australia! There is so much more to explore I hope he does multiple episodes or at least comes back to experience the other states!!
