gastronomy
ɡaˈstrɒnəmi/
noun
  1. the practice or art of choosing, cooking, and eating good food.



Good Food, Good Mood was established after I realised how often I was asking myself the difficult question of "Where and what should we eat today?". The Melbourne food scene truly makes us spoilt for choice, so I am hoping my honest reviews can act as a guide for any occasion - from cheap eats to fine dining, to burgers and pizza on cheat days, to fresh and healthy on cutting days. Recommendations on places to try and review are always welcome, just leave a comment.

All photos are taken with my Samsung Note 4 or Sony NEX-F3 unless stated otherwise. Thanks for dropping by!

P.S. Shoutout to my friends and family who dine with me - thanks for not picking up your cutlery when the food comes out so I can take all my food photos... y'all know my camera eats first haha.

1090 Burger

Melbourne has had an influx of food trucks over the past year, with 1090 Burger joining the party in December 2014. 1090 Burger started grilling 'In-And-Out' style burgers on Ruckers Hill, Northcote. I paid a visit to the infamous hill 5 weeks ago, and to my horror, the truck was not there!!! However, they have overturned my disappointment by blessing Swan Street, Richmond with a PERMANENT burger store. Talk about convenience! I'm really glad to see them expanding their brand, with Richmond being a central location.

Now... enough chitchat about the location... let's talk about what they serve at 1090. I ordered the classic "1090 Burger" and inhaled it within five minutes because it was simply delicious. Unfortunately the bun came out a bit cold but I was too distracted by the cheese melted on a succulent beef patty to really care too much about a cold bun. Salivating yet?

1090 Double - $12.50 AUD

This burger is so aesthetically pleasing and I can guarantee you that it tastes how it looks. This burger deserves a strong 8/10 rating which is generous for me considering how many burgers I have eaten this whole year. I would have given it a 10/10 had I ordered bacon with it. For all my VEGO friends... 1090 accommodate to you too with the Vegie Burger. 


I ordered the 1090 Burger (pictured below) and was happy with the price ($9.00AUD) which is cheap considering how fresh the produce is. Would you just at how juicy the cheese is??!!! The fries were fresh even though we got to the store at 8pm, and came with mayo or ketchup at no extra charge. Next time I'm going to try the onion rings for sure and I would recommend that you pay a visit if you haven't already!!! 



Also, I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has inspired and encouraged me to start blogging about my eating experiences (again). I can't believe I haven't written a post since September 2014......... how time flies!!! I'll definitely start logging my heavy camera around again and continue to stop my friends and family from eating their food so I can take heaps of photos to share with you all! Stay tuned for more food posts, I'll endeavour to post a new one every week! Love ya, loyal readers xx
