Valent, D 2011, 'The Serve: Armadale', M: Melbourne inside out, 1 May, 2011, p. 16, John Fairfax, Newcastle, NSW.
Each week Dani Valent surveys suburbs around Melbourne for the best food each one has to offer. In this issue's column, Valent reviews the Coin Laundry, a newly opened cafe in Armadale. The column has a definite Sunday magazine feel to it: relaxed, affable but also informative. Aside from the main review, Valent also gives the reader alternative places to visit while in each suburb (perhaps, in case the venue that is the subject of the main review turns out to be packed). As different locales are chosen each week, this column may not always have specifically 'affordable' venues reviewed (The Serve's column for the following week for example, took the reader to Melbourne's notoriously affluent Bayside suburbs -- not the prime hunting grounds for foodies on a budget). Nevertheless, this column 'serves' as adequate Sunday reading, if you're looking for inspiration for your next food adventure. W.V.

'Broth of fresh air' featured article, M: Melbourne inside out magazine
Unreich, R 2011, ''Broth of fresh air', M: Melbourne inside out, 1 May, 2011, p. 10, John Fairfax, Newcastle, NSW.
In this featured article, Rachelle Unreich takes us on a veritable tour of Melbourne's multicultural food scene through a seasonal favourite: soup. With the cold weather well and truly setting in and Melburnians bracing for record lows, an aromatic, hearty bowl of broth can be a panacea for the winter-weary soul. Unreich's list includes familiar favourites such as Pelligrini's and the Station Hotel, but also other welcome additions for the more adventurous. This list may not be comprehensive; certainly, there are other (deserving) restaurants, but it does provide soup enthusiasts of every persuasion a starting point to start their adventure. W.V.

Sunday Night Dinner column, Sunday Life magazine, The Age
Apelgren, J 2010, 'Sunday Night Dinner: Pizza Religion', Sunday Life magazine, 1 May 2011, p. 40 (Food & Wine section), Fairfax Media, Pyrmont, NSW.
Growing up, I often enjoyed rifling through the weekend newspaper looking for the kids section for the comic strips and puzzles. I still like comic strips and puzzles today, but more often I find myself looking in the paper for restaurant reviews and recipes. A couple of weeks ago in The Age's complementary Sunday Life magazine, Janne Apelgren reviewed Pizza Religion, a gourmet pizzeria with a twist on traditional fare located in Melbourne's east suburban heartland of Hawthorn. Apelgren, who is coincidentally the editor of The Age's Good Food Guide, intrepidly ventures into new food venues around Melbourne and provides wonderfully descriptive accounts of the cuisine on offer in this short but sumptuous weekend column. Consider it a recommendation for a place to eat after reading the paper. W.V.
