COFFEE CAPITAL
Yarraville is earning a reputation as one of Melbourne’s coffee capitals. Already on the map for its glorious breakfasts and perfectly poached eggs, Butcher 128 in Roberts Street is getting rave reviews for its specialty brews. It was recently listed as one of Melbourne’s best new coffee hot spots, along with Cobb Lane in Anderson Street, where out-of-towners will travel miles for a soothing dose of Clement coffee and salted caramel doughnut.
BUTTER UP
The Butter Up knife is one of those gadgets that immediately has you asking:
“Why didn’t somebody think of this before?”
The brainchild of three Australian designers, the Butter Up is a surprisingly simple invention that’s taken the world by storm.
It looks like a regular stainless-steel butter knife, except there’s a grater built into the blade. Which means if you have a block of butter that’s as hard as a brick,
the holes in this knife will easily collect and soften it into creamy little strands, so you can spread it on your toast
with ease.
