Max in Melbourne Part 4: I will come back & Hotel Maya Kuala Lumpur

And I truly had a blast in Melbourne that I need to divide my trip there into four different posts! Plus the wonderful 2 day/1 night stay at Hotel Maya which I crazily enjoyed all for MYR 0. Like seriously.

Alongside the Great Ocean Road and the city itself, I also went to Mt Dandenong which took me and my friends about an hour to get there. This place is like what Kundasang is to Sabah, only brutally colder, slightly easier to go about and very Australian. You can see the bird eye's view of the city here:

Optical illusion? Think again.

I will feel empty if I don't talk about food as we had lunch here before we headed back to the city, prior to our road trip we surfed the net and decided to give Cuckoo Restaurant for a try:

Pictures!

Yes yes yes! :D

The overview of the restaurant. It's a German restaurant and the waitress was thick with her German accent when she served us.





It was all-you-can-eat buffet and damn, when it comes to buffet, you just want to try everything, and I did just that.

We had these on our table:

Oh yes, our stomachs did explode the other day. Literally. Probably the best buffet I've ever had outside of Malaysia. If you are in Melbourne and ready to eat like a king, do drop by at this restaurant. According to their website the address is:

508 Mount Dandenong Tourist Road
Olinda VIC 3788, Australia

Oh and it's A$39.90 but it's worth it! The 5 kilos I gained were worth it :D

With this, I conclude my story on my fabulous trip in Melbourne. I was so inspired that I wrote to NST for their weekly Savvy Traveller column every Thursday and I was in the newspaper on 9th September 2010 :) Definitely icing on the cake & perfect birthday present for me, which I only redeemed in March. Bliss!

The trip to Land Down Under + The win + The bed + The shower/bath room + The hydrotherapy pool + The view = AWESOME
