Runya's Rooms, Melbourne

For my birthday, my old work chums and I went to Runya's Rooms in the new St Collins Lane shopping complex in the Melbourne CBD.  You can book in for a high tea at Runya's, and there are some beautiful cakes and pastries displayed in the window:

However, we were there for lunch, so something a little more substantial was called for.

Greg went for the minute steak sandwich with onion jam, gruyere, tomato, lettuce aioli and relish ($19) - it was hearty and tasty:

Justine went for the selection of sandwiches, which are the same as those served at high tea ($16):

Swee went for the mini lamb sliders with babaganoush, cucumber and tahini yoghurt ($15):

And I went for the magnificent looking hot smoked salmon, poached eggs, toasted rye, beetroot relish and dill hollandaise ($17):

Everyone was happy with their choice.  Service was efficient.

I would like to go back and try the high tea.
