A day in Carnegie
Carnegie's Koornang Road has become one of Melbourne's most exciting suburban food streets. Here is a day worth building around a game.
Koornang Road
Koornang Road has become one of Melbourne's most exciting suburban food streets, Asian dining, Italian favourites, modern cafes, pubs and dessert spots side by side. Handmade dumplings at Auntie's and Dumpling Workshop, Korean BBQ at Jubang, bagels at Huff Bagelry and gelato at Nuvoletta, all within a few hundred metres.
Brunch and coffee
The strip is a brunch destination in its own right, corner-spot cafes like Left Field, Figjam and Spilt Milk, with the old Rosstown Hotel on Dandenong Road for a classic pub feed.
Packer Park and the trail
For some air, JT Packer Park has playgrounds, cricket nets, sports fields, a velodrome and off-leash dog areas, and the Djerring Trail runs a scenic green route through the area.
…then the escape room
The easy part: Chadstone is a short trip east, with three rooms and live availability below.
