Alexander Gow and Thomas Savage, the duo at the heart of Melbourne four-piece Oh Mercy, blend evocative and intelligent lyricism with a strong pop sensibility. In the Nude for Love, the band's first full EP release, is both a taste of their forthcoming debut album Privileged Woes, and a preview of the young songwriters' polished pop brilliance.

New Chef Daniel Schelberts from Bottega and European is now at the much loved and very cute Porgie + Mr Jones in Hawthorn. Fans love their menu which changes monthly reflecting the seasons and features loads of local produce. This ex violineri is the perfect place to sit back and relax on these cold weekends.

This eco friendly business is the talk of Melbourne town. To minimize their carbon footprint Grumpy's Green source all the ingredients for their delicious vege menu, as well as their beers, from right here in Victoria. Grumpy's even have water tanks to catch the scarce Melbourne rain - which is then used to flush their toilets and water their plants. Love green Melbourne.
