Soi 38 is one of Melbourne’s best hidden-in-plain-sight eating spots. It’s down a laneway off Bourke Street, in an above-ground concrete parking garage. You’ll know you’re close when you start hearing raucous lunchtime chatter and catch the scent of aromatic soup. You’ve arrived when you see the colourful tables and chairs. Melbourne Institutions is Broadsheet’s limited-edition series with Garden State Journal, an ode to some of Melbourne’s most iconic and beloved restaurants, cafes and shops. |
