Duck Sausages at Riverland

Riverland sits in Federation Wharf, just below Federation Square on the banks of the Yarra. It's a great place for lunch on a sunny day, it's probably the best 'beer garden' in the CBD. My highlight is the Outdoor BBQ, where excellent and good value sausages can be had.
On my last visit I had duck and pistachio, but there's always three or four options. All sausages sit between $7-$8 and come with a good bun, onions, sauerkraut and of course sauce and mustard. It's basically a really good hot-dog, in a beautiful setting.

Riverland is open 7-midnight 7 days a week and the do a nifty breakfast as well with rowers swishing past down the Yarra to add ambiance.

Cevapchichi at Carlton Hotel

The Carlton Hotel now does lunch on Fridays. This is especially good for summer as they have an excellent deck that opens out from the bar area on Level 1. The menu had some big stuff and then a lot of the smaller sized plates for sharing (or just eating if you're me). I tried the Cheesy Poofs and the Cevapchchi. Cheesy Poofs were OK but more of a snack than lunch. The Cevap's on the other hand were pretty good value for for $12. Three moist, chewy, tasty logs of Slavic porkiness with some dipping sauce to accompany. Not too fatty, but enough fat to go well with a beer on a hot summers afternoon.
