The Fox Hotel's been on our radar for a little while - it's a favourite of my coeliac pub clubbing mate, Emily's a fan, and for a few months they've been running a rather neat feminist salon.

This is a post about Japanese food, no surprises there. Ever since my recent Tokyo jaunt I've become a little obsessed. One of my favourite luxury lunch options is the vegetarian bento box from Wabi Sabi Salon (94 Smith Street, Collingwood). Particularly when they include croquettes and edamame beans. The ingredients vary day to day but it's always good.

SEASON TRAILERSEASON FLYER DOWNLOAD Ah...all the little snowdrops are pushing up outta the stony earth and curly green things are sprouting from dry branches. Sunshine and longer days and I'm sneezing like a semi-automatic. Here then are six tales of reproduction, generation and transition from around the world and a spread of decades.SHADOWS is a cinema in a gallery. There's heating and a licensed bar. The mood is informal and the invitation is for you to enjoy some films from the shadows of the mainstream and stick around for some fireside opining or (as the start time allows for it) the rest of the still young night and its ... read more

While we still don't know who will be our Prime Minister, one thing is clear - the Greens have been the big winners in this election.

I have better things to do on Saturday, so I already voted, at a little place I know- only in Melbourne can you find a polling booth down a laneway off the arse end of Bourke St. I just hope nothing too shocking emerges between now and then- on the form of this campaign so far, I shouldn't expect anything will.Anyway, I'm more an MC5 guy than a Billy Bragg type when it comes to politics in music, so that's enough of that.Although the theme is unavoidable this weekend. This looks like a good place to lose your shit over the ranga v. ratbag battle:![]()
