Hey everyone! Today deserves a little randomness (for no particular reason, that’s why it’s random silly!), so here are three random shops that I think should open in Melbourne. All you franchisers, quick find out how we can get these shops down under, cause they’re awesome:

Meatball Obsession

Oh yes. The name says it all. Meatballs for the obsessed meatball fanatics. The idea is simple (well, I talk as if I know it – and yet I’ve only found out about this place today!)… Basically, yummy meatballs in a cup ready for take away – and a bread stick! Simple and yet so good. Mmm…

PopBar

We’ve got gelato ice cream shops everywhere in Melbourne. You can go to Lygon St and find about 5 of them there. And then there’s the Ben & Jerry’s new scoop store on Chapel. And all the other awesome ice cream shops around town. And nobody thought of making icy poles or icy pop (ice cream on a stick) shop?! This would be great for hot summer day.

Omote 3D Shashin Kan

I love love love photos. I love being in them and I love taking them (yes, that’s like my catchphrase.) And I’m all about modern technology, but there’s this one old school tech that I really love: photobooth. I had one in my wedding – it was a blast! So, when I heard that the Japanese now has a photobooth/studio to create 3D printed images of ourselves (ie. like a little 3D toy version of us), I want one here! Of course, it’s not really affordable right now, but I have faith that things will change in the long run! A little vain? Oh who cares. Check out the video and you’ll understand why it looks like fun:

I don’t think this will be the end of my “random shops that should be in Melbourne” post. But this is it for today!

What other awesome shops or restaurants or franchises should we have in Melbourne?
