STOP THREE

You’re heading to Hofbräuhaus!

18/28 Market Ln, Melbourne VIC 3000

Yes, that’s right - we might physically be in the heart of Melbourne CBD, but Hofbräuhaus will make you feel like you have teleported to Germany!

This Bavarian beer hall has been in the same spot since 1968 and everybody around knows that this is the place in town to have a mighty great time. They pride themselves on serving the best boutique Bavarian produce, both in food and in drinks! As you will see, they are passionate about tradition, and they have handpicked pure ‘Biers’ from the finest breweries in Bavaria.

Upon arrival at each restaurant, let them know your name, and that you are on your AmazingCo Mystery Food Walk.

Melbourne’s Chinatown

Melbourne's Chinatown, established in 1854, is one of the oldest in the world. It is also home to the world's longest Chinese dragon at more than 100 meters in length.

It was the discovery of gold in 1851 which attracted Chinese immigration to Victoria on a large scale. Ships sailed to Australia from Hong Kong with their cargo of men who had come in search of the “New Gold Mountain”.The small but burgeoning Chinese community in Little Bourke Street provided for all the needs of the diggers – lodgings en route to the goldfields, food, equipment and medicine.

The refurbishment of Chinatown’s 5 key arches was an important statement of the City of Melbourne’s commitment to Chinatown. The arches have been restored to their former glory with added modern touches including red neon lighting on the columns. The arches clearly announce the entrance to Chinatown. This magnificent archway was hand made in China according to traditional techniques and materials. It was shipped to Melbourne in many pieces and assembled in Cohen Place under the supervision of highly skilled Chinese craftworkers. It’s the perfect backdrop for photographs and the main entrance to Cohen Place, Chinatown Square and the Chinese Museum.
