Faces of the CBD

Why are you standing in a queue for lunch?

Rhonda Dredge | 21st September, 2022

They have a different dish every day. Banana leaves on Saturday. I’ve been two or three times. This is the biggest queue I’ve been at.

I’ve never tried the food. I came with Jeffrey. We live together. We met at the restaurant Gimlet. A lot of people work together there.

This is my first time here. I go to the centre of Melbourne. Many students live here.

We have everything here. Sometimes the city’s too crowded. On Friday I might stay in my apartment.
