[Travel Melbourne] Biting into Lune and Bakemono

During the last visit to Melbourne 2 years back, we passed by Lune and there was a long line for its bakes. This time, we made it a point to check it out and hence, we were there before the shop opens to see how things are. Well, the queue is still there!

Lune



we were early


get your card ready


When you reach inside the shop, at the payment counter is also where they display their available bakes for the day. Take a quick look and place in your order, and pay by card.

guess which 3 we chose


Happy that the shop offers still and sparkling water dispenser, so help yourself to the water while waiting for the beverages and pastries. There's a long communal table indoor, so everyone who wants to dine-in will stand there to enjoy the pastries.

Thank you to the staff who brought the drinks and pastries to our table.

Carbonara (September Special)

Kouign Amann @AUD9.50



Cheese & Vegemite Escargot @AUD10.70


I was curious about the vegemite and it tasted as it looked. Savoury, salty.



The best tasting was the savoury Carbonara for its bacon bits, and cheese. Yummy.

Hot Chocolate @AUD6.10

White Coffee @AUD5.80 (Salina insisted on the placement of the paperbag =x)

Bakemono


After which, we walked to our next bakery, Bakemono as this was recommended by Salina's friend and was also in our radar for one of the places we wanted to try during this trip.

let's queue


shop front for the curious

We waited in line, and as you approaches the side entrance to the shop, the available bakes for the day are displayed so one could have around that few minutes to decide on what they want before entering the shop.

guess what we chose






Go in, place your order and payment by cash or card. The staff would ask for your name and they will call out for you once the pastries are packed and good to go. Yeah, this place is for take-aways only.

So once you're done with payment, just wait outside of the main entrance for your name to be called.

can't wait to try!


There's a plain croissant, almond croissant, Spinach feta cheese danish and scones. We went to the park at the State Library Victoria to enjoy the pastries.


are you eyeing the pastries?

 
almond croissant

crisp flaky on the outside, and soft inside

this my favourite

Canele



The price range for Bakemono is around AUD6.50 onwards. Loved their croissant and danish with is extra flaky and buttery-ness. Staff was friendly and the queue moves pretty fast.
