Glad you like it! I must say I'm very taken with The Design Files - love the way you look at all sorts of different things from the design angle. If I had the time I'd love to write something similar but I barely manage to write the food stuff as it is! :-)clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17271464994614942315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609138731901019917.post-42137583473700600442008-09-07T17:57:00.000+10:002008-09-07T17:57:00.000+10:00Hi Claire... just discovered your blog.. what a fi...Hi Claire... just discovered your blog.. what a find! (I was googling Auction Rooms in North Melb and you popped up) anyway I have a Melbourne design blog called The Design Files... I often write about Melb places including restaurants but mainly from a design angle... (ie architecture and fitout etc).. anyway I have bookmarked you and will add a link to you from my site! (ps St Judes is fancy huh? I felt like I was in NYC when I visited - seems so international! actually my partner worked on the interior fitout...) - Lucy xLucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03417799114967237506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609138731901019917.post-16217140100853940512008-08-25T14:58:00.000+10:002008-08-25T14:58:00.000+10:00I'm off to Trunk next Monday.

The pizzas are great! And its a nice enough spot outside in warmer weather. If you're in the area lunchwise, also try Sally's Kitchen a little further down.

It is very close to my work, and has been a great spot for a lunchtime pizza, or after work drinks. I think it's fab! And their pizza's really are fantastic.<BR/><BR/>I haven't eaten in the restaurant yet though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
