The weather over the past weekend was finally so perfect in Melbourne. A lot of stores and restaurants are closed because of the summer holidays, but we spent a good chunk of the day wandering the CBD's laneways and streets--awesome, need to wander through more. We also caught an exhibit on Shaun Tan's books and short film at ACMI (free museum!) in Federation Square--he's a Chinese Australian animator/illustrator whose film recently won an Oscar.
Of course, we had a coffee. But the real meal of the day was the Chicken Parm at the Imperial Hotel, a pub right opposite the Parliament Building.

Waiting for our Chicken Parm in front of the Parliament building
This chicken parm was so big even Carlos said he was glad we were sharing.
Melbourne's Chinatown (seems built for tourists mainly). There was a Shark Fin Inn.
Chicken parm is not for sharing.
