LuxBite

LuxBite had always been on my 'to bite' list, just one I had never gotten round to. It was that dessert place that always lingered at the back of my mind.

This cute little hipster cafe just so happens to reside in the suburb of Balwyn, somewhere I would have never guessed it to be.

We requested to sit in the courtyard, in...
