Guidebook for Richmond
Food Scene
Great coffee & a realiably awesome brunch, newer & still lesser known than the pavement pounded Bridge Road strip of bustling brunch digs - usually a 15-30 minute wait for a table on a weekend along Bridge, but Jethro has always been straight in!

Bridge Road Tram - to CBD
Right at the end of Burnley Street!
Verkehrsmittel
I often use DiDi - ridesharing like Uber but often cheaper.
It's an easy run to the airport, straight onto the motorway, usually around $60 in a Didi. Half an hour with no traffic but easily an hour if it's peak time - I usually check on Maps.
