My wife and I are happy to have hooked up our friends at mapmakers Herb Lester Associates with her one-time schoolmate and these days prominent Australian food writer Leanne Clancey.

As a result Clance, as she is known, produced the excellent guide An Appetite For Melbourne in collaboration with US designer Ross Bruggink.

The publication of the map was celebrated with a launch party at the city’s Kelvin Club recently.

Among the throng were the people behind such must-visit establishments as Spring Street Grocers, the Cup Of Truth cafe and brewery Mornington Peninsula, as well as Clance’s brother Shane, whose vineyard Basalt Wines was a party sponsor.
