A friend had told me of a great Indian restaurant in the Melbourne CBD. Yesterday I had the opportunity to give it a try, and I have to say that this is the best Indian restaurant I’ve eaten at in Melbourne in a long, long time.
The Curry Vault is in Bank Place near the Mitre Tavern off Collins Street. It was a balmy Thursday evening and the restaurant was full. We were lucky to get a table.

I’ve been to Mai Thai before… and it was good.

After the “world’s most expensive beer” © we headed off to graze. We were thinking on Monsoon Poon, but went past Wangthai Restaurant with their “2005 Best Thai” award so thought we’d give it a go.
The mistake had begun.

After having to mortgage my apartment to pay for the beer earlier on in the week, we decided to head off to the gaggle of restaurants close by to The Westin on the waterfront.
We’d decided to start off with a couple of beers before moving onto getting something to eat. One beer became two, became half a dozen, and we just couldn’t be bothered moving from where we were. Luckily Degree does meals, so our fate was sealed.

It was a public holiday in Melbourne, and the weather wasn’t too bad, so had lunch with a friend down at Docklands in Melbourne.
Not having been to the restaurant area of Docklands before, we walked the length of the food strip and finally came to Melbourne Yacht Club Hotel. It wasn’t too busy (maybe this was an omen), and the menu looked OKish.
