Always just thought it was groceries, but will definately be going deeper inside them and doscovering the foods. Foodle i think is new but excited to go there next time, my mum told me about a food court inside the new shop so this must be the one! Think i might just go to the Glen tomorrow now!! Haha

      I don’t eat in “food courts”, l eat in Restaurants, and seperate eateries. Much too noisy, and hustle bustle in Food Courts, and seldom delicious - just average food for youngsters, students etc. who know not much about food preparation. I know many Asian students here from Japan, Korea, China, they all eating lots of fast food, and everything is okay for them. I don’t mean expensive art restaurants, just cooking simple, fresh, and authentic. I know The Glen, and you passed my favourite Chinese Restaurant outside the Glen’s entrance, where l love the food. In Glen Weverly, Stephenson Rd shopping area is the Thai THE MANGO TREE, it is a delicious inexpensive Restaurant. But respect your vid, and your cheerful, excited personality. Enjoy. We all have different tastes, and preferences. Thank you. ❤🕊

      Most of the restaurants outside the Glen have alcohol, but it's like $10 for a small beer and $20 for a cocktail..

    Its sad to often see most food vlogs about Melbourne focusing only on the asian cuisine options. Not only is this short sighted but narrow minded also. Melbourne has always been lnown for its European feel and roots. Yet, we are presented with only Asian options disregarding all the other amazing options Melbourne is known for. You go into the Melbourne CBD now and it feels and looks like an Asian city, Melbourne has lost its true self sadly. However there are some great European food options available, unfortunately most vloggers cant see it. This vlog shows nothing about the true food culture in Melbourne, yet another lame vlog.

      Your response can only be described as immature and uneducated. As a Melbourne foodie, I watch to see if there is anything that is unique, original and inspiring. You fail on all 3, you just can't or won't see it.
      It doesn't hurt my feelings, an ignorant vlogger who thinks they are unique, interesting and informed, just bores me and many others.

      The Glen also has a huge Asian population in the area so it’s probably going to be predominantly Asian influenced.

      ​@@michellele8652Most vloggers are narcissists and really have no idea about their topic of choice but just regurgitate the same venues, experiences etc. that have already been done to death. This vlog does not reflect Melbourne's amazing diversity of eateries, just another Asian focused vlog showcasing the same venues. FYI Pellegrinis just celebrated 70 years of service. Now this is part ( the beginning ) of true Melbourne cafe culture. You probably havent heard of it as there arent matcha options on the menu. ​@michellele8652
