University Cafe Melbourne

Local Italian. Lygon st. Italian beer to start. Ambience was casual.


Warm food for cold autumn evening. The restaurant owner was sitting in front of shop with scarf on. 

Fettuccine con gambari spicy and hot. $19.5 for entre size. 4 big prawns. Chili. 

Roast lamb ribs. Entre $18.50 enough for a days work. I did not have to order a main. Spinach poached with drizzle of lemon to go as a side at $9. The lamb has a bed of tomatoes, onions and cucumber. Topping of warm sour cream. Good prompt service. Not fine dining but good wholesome food. 

No time for deserts head to the local pastry shop on Lygon st. - Brunetti. See next blog.

This morning I ran aound Melbourne from North Melbourne to Franklin St then to the Grand Hyatt on Colin St. The weather was cool but I had on Nike compression gear short sleeve top. This was great and I felt cool but not cold. The distance in total was about 6km with a back pack. So maybe a cross between running and backpacking. Maybe 600 calories. See http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-living/weight-loss/in-depth/exercise/art-20050999 as it took about an hour.
