It's a beautiful location, tree-lined fresh air coming off of the sea and we're gonna stop into a place.
the restaurant is called Pipi's Kiosk and so when you say kiosk in Australia is it. Does It sometimes mean a restaurant? Casual? A casual joint where you could get some fish and chips, You could get some ice creams. Oh it's okay. It's sort of like a little beach, so it's not not just like a little convenience store, it's well at the front they have one.
Oh okay, so it's starting to have a little window. Maybe it started out as a as a little convenience store and then has grown into a restaurant that it is today. Chaos. Time for fish and Chips! Nice to meet you Tom It's a pleasure.

We'll pull it. Okay, really? Savory super Umami Um, so a nice way of like elevating the fish. but cool cool. Um, comes with just broccoli.
okay every day. Um, here in-house make sure we save them both sides because like it gets the seasoning and stuff afterwards as well. But it's to kind of maximize. It's in the flour, some excess, you're better.
Yeah and again, there's two sides to the the kiosk. One is more of the kiosk, which is the takeaway food Where there's fish and chips, there's sandwiches available, and the other side is more of a gourmet seafood restaurant serving the seasonal, uh, seafood and produce. What we're gonna do is that we're gonna be able to taste a few dishes from both sides, including the fish and chips over from the kiosk side as well as some grilled Dory fish some other Seafood Specialties from the other side. So we're getting the best of everything. It's going to be an incredible meal already. I Mean they're frying the fish, They're grilling the fish. You could see the Vibrance of the produce just. ah, focusing on freshness and just I mean straight up farm and boat to table.

Wow
😂 🔥 wife and I love you’re videos hahahaha and I go and eat everywhere you show me hahhahaha
Places like Arbory Afloat and Supernormal are overpriced, trendy Insta places. The local "guides" did a disservice not taking you to down to earth, authentic eateries such as the various Vietnamese pho places in Richmond, or some of the local institutions like Jim's Greek Tavern.
Did I miss the details? You've done it in other videos… It's helpful for us to know how much money is spent on the meals, please. Thank you.
I used to travel to Melbourne for work two or three times a year, but have never visited any of these places…

I wish Emir was my personal chef. I could eat that all day
I think the young lady is a real star and represents Australia well, down to earth, no airs and graces, unforgettable and hauntingly beautiful. You'll always want to come back to her. Her and Mark make a lovely team. On the food side Australia has more angles than anywhere. Mark is a FOOD HERO xx

How does Mark stay so thin!
If you tell us the cost it’ll be so useful.
Peepees 😂 almost, pip-i's
