Postcards on Channel 9 – Join the Postcards team this week for an encore visit to some of their favourite locations so far in 2024, at 5.30pm Sunday on Channel 9 and 9Now.
Madeline Spark explores Pakington Street in Geelong West (Wathaurong Country). First up, she stops by Poco Cafe Express to meet the owners and enjoy a serving of their famous croissant pudding. Then she checks out The Garage Geelong, a popular vintage market, before settling in for a ripper pub feed across the road at the recently refurbished Petrel Hotel.
Guest presenter Michael Teng trades Travel Guides for Postcards to explore Patterson Lakes (Boonwurrung Country). After a feed at Tomboys Canteen in Chelsea Heights he’s off to Melbourne Cable Park for an adrenaline fix, hitting the waves wakeboarding.
After all that action, and a game of mini golf, he ends his day at The Cove Hotel with a porterhouse steak and fries.
Meanwhile, we find Todd Woodbridge in Sunbury (Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country), learning about the town’s history and catching up with the locals. His first stop is the 8 Oaks cafe, where he digs into tasty corn fritters over a chat with owner Sam D’Angelo, before checking out the 150-year-old Ball Court Hotel which has just reopened after a massive renovation.
And Shane Delia is uncovering the fun-focused locals in Fitzroy North putting their own spin on the suburb’s food scene (Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country). Like Alex Courtney-Hatcher from Hatcher Baker, who makes bread and sweets at home in his microbakery and does deliveries for customers on his bicycle. Shane also ducks into the popular acai bar, Lovabowl, before enjoying an Italian feast at Pinotta.
