That's weird. I was in Melbourne one night, wandering around the CBD,
with a Melbournite in tow, and we were unable to find anywhere that
sold food that wasn't McDonalds. Maybe we were doing it wrong, but
even Canberra has a food van within staggering distance of nearly
every night-venue. (Of course, that may have been a Sunday night.)
