Unposted photos

Just thought I'd put some photos up from when we were in Melbourne and stayed at the Crown Metropol which opened just the week before we were there.

The hotel from the outside and from the room the kingsize bed with the bathroom in the background.

View from our hotel room. The weather is not that good but you can see the water over there.

We were only in Melbourne for one night but we managed to get a table at Gordon Ramsay's restaurant Maze, which is located in the hotel building. There are two restaurants actually - Maze and Maze grill. There were no available tables at Maze when we made our reservation so we ended up going to Maze grill instead. I think I probably would've prefered that one anyway so I was happy.

From the left: Bowen's starter - crispy softshell crab. Bowens main - roasted barramundi. My main - "Cape Grim", grass fed beef fillet from Tasmania with bearnaise sauce.

Everything was delicious. I don't think I've ever had such a tender piece of meat but my favourite was Bowen's softshell crab, it was really, really nice. I can definitely recommend this restaurant if you're ever in Melbourne.
