Babajan Eatery

11 Best Brunch Spots in Melbourne | Condé Nast Traveler

"With its sizable Middle Eastern and Mediterranean communities, it's only natural that Melbourne, a city known for its cafe culture, would house a place like Babajan, which draws on the aromatic flavors of Turkey for its modern breakfast in the Carlton neighborhood. On the surface, it has all the hallmarks of a modern Melbourne cafe: Lots of natural light, warm wood surfaces, plenty of plant life. But you'll likely look past all that and go straight to the bountiful case of baked goods, overflowing with Turkish delights, like their famous simit : A donut-shaped, sesame seed–studded bread that's not too dissimilar from pita." - Krista Simmons
