Now, it all started about a week ago when myself and my lovely girlfriend had a week off work and thought, what better way to spend our holiday than to go on a food bender through Melbourne! Unfortunately, we don't actually have any photos of all the delicious food we sampled over the last week as we had not yet planned to start a blog (hence the 'Sudden Urges' in the blog title), but don't worry, we will just have to go back to all the awesome places we visited again and take a few snap shots then! :)

But for now I'm sure I can at least tell you all about the yummy food that we have had, and as soon as I get my memory stick to work in this bloody computer (I'm a good cook but crap on computers) I will have a few lovely home cooked recipes to share with you as well.

Okay, where were we? That's right, I was about to tell you all about our awesome food adventure. It begins after watching Masterchef's New York special when we decided, we MUST have bagels! So off we set to Bagelicious on Glenhuntly Road in Elsternwick.

Admittedly the service was a little poor - even slightly patronising - but the bagels were delicious and the coffee was pretty good too. I had the roast beef with swiss cheese on a parmesan and spinach bagel, while my girlfriend Shannon went for the classic smoked salmon and cream cheese on a rye bagel. Both bagels came with a small container of pickles which went perfectly with both of our bagels, Shannon said that the smoked salmon worked perfectly on the rye and my bagel was undoubtedly the best roast beef "sandwich" I have had in a long time if not ever. I had originally wanted the pastrami, but as we got there about 3pm a lot of the fillings were already gone, so if you would like to check it out yourself make sure you get in early!
