Melbourne's oldest, Melbourne's biggest, Melbourne's best! And the largest open-air market in the Southern Hemisphere. Need I say more? Eat, shop, eat, explore and eat your way through the iconic food halls and heritage sheds. Discover the best of local produce, including seasonal fruits and vegetables, meat, fish and dairy. Sample some of Melbourne's most authentic and delicious multicultural cuisines. No matter how much else you eat, though, leave room for a borek from The Borek Shop. You can choose from meat, potato and the classic spinach and cheese, which is still my favourite. It'll be the best $3 meal you've ever had! If you can tear yourself away from the food, there's also plenty of bargain clothing, jewellery, homewares, crafts and souvenirs to shop. You can even join a 2-hour Hunt and Gather Food Tour through the market. The fantastic summer and winter night markets typically run from November to March and June to August on Wednesday nights. Just a short drive or tram ride from The Corner House. Open every day except Monday and Wednesday (except for the night markets). Check the website for times and further details.

Melbourne's best fish and chips, according to the Good Food Guide (www.goodfood.com.au) and according to me! This little venue is so good that Australian Seafood Group has opened a second, larger restaurant at 146 Gaffney Street, Coburg North. They also have a reputation for supplying many of Melbourne's restaurants. It's always busy, so you might have to queue for a bit, but it's well worth it. My recommendation - the lunch pack with all the extras! Walking distance from The Corner House. Open for brunch, lunch and early dinner 7 days a week.

Bourke Street Mall is Melbourne's retail heart. It links Swanston and Elizabeth streets and is only open to trams and pedestrians. Listen out for the bells of approaching trams and Melbourne's best buskers - they need to audition to be able to play in the mall - as you drift between dozens of glossy stores.

The Merri Creek Trail is a shared use path for cyclists and pedestrians that follows the Merri Creek through Melbourne's inner-north. The path starts at Dights Falls near where Merri Creek enters the Yarra River, and takes a winding route alongside the creek down to the Western Ring Road Trail. You can access the most scenic parts of the trail from Coburg Lake Reserve, where it becomes lush and green, lined with weeping willows and grassy meadows. A few of the trail's highlights include the Brunswick Velodrome, the CERES Community Environment Park and more than one bridge crossing. Coburg Lake Reserve is walking distance from The Corner House.

A local icon, this outdoor pool is a social venue as much as it is a fitness facility. The heated 50-metre pool attracts serious lap swimmers at peak times and is very popular with laid-back locals on weekends. There's also a kiddy pool and, in summer, Sunday afternoon DJs. My favourite time to go? First thing in the morning on weekends, when I can avoid the masses and enjoy some me time. About a 15 minute drive or taxi ride from The Corner House. Open 7 days a week.
