Win 5 x double passes to THE LUNCHBOX!

Winner of the Viewers’ Choice Award at the Cannes Film Festival, THE LUNCHBOX is a critically acclaimed gem from Mumbai.

Ila, a neglected housewife, attempts to spice up her marriage by preparing a special lunch for her husband. When it is accidentally delivered to Saajan, a lonely widower on the brink of retirement, they exchange notes to each other to get to the bottom of the mistaken delivery. Their notes gradually evolve into a series of intimate little confessions about their loneliness, memories, regrets, fears and small joys. Still strangers physically, Ila and Saajan become swept up in a relationship built on the fantasy of their letters.

"My favourite lunch spot is Tassal cafe/shop in Kew Victoria. The lunch mains always showcase Tasmanian Salmon cook in different ways. So healthy,light and fresh and the price reasonable. The wine list although limited but always compliment the Salmon dish.Attached to the cafe is the salmon shop ,which one can browse after lunch to get inspiration and ingredients to cook the family"s next Salmon dish."

Daniel Q. with the following entry:

“My favourite lunch spot in Melbourne would have to be bringing a home cooked meal and sitting down in flagstaff gardens – it’s so relaxing and makes you feel like you’re outside of the hussle and bussle of the city. It’s particularly beautiful in Autumn when all the leaves fall down!”

Vanessa K. with the following entry:

"My favourite lunch spot at the moment is Royal Saxon. Actually found out about the place from reading Gastrology a few months ago and now I'm hooked - absolutely love the delicious pizzas and pasta. Really authentic and the staff are great. Thanks for the recommendation!"

Grace N. with the following entry:

"My favourite lunch spot is the Royal Botanical Gardens with its cacophony of nature's music with a picnic rug featuring some Aussie fine produce and a bottle of wine."

Ryan L. with the following entry:

"My favourite lunch spot is Sushi Monger. It is super cheap, super delicious and super fast (although there is always a line). Sushi Monger has become a bit of a Melbourne favourite and for good reason. I then like to bring my sushi to the nearest lawn and enjoy it while basking in the warmth of the sun or while people watching."

… Congratulations, the winners will be contacted via email.
