Gastrology bloggers explored Armadale courtesy of Toorak Park.
There’s a new property development set to enter Armadale, Toorak Park.
Located at 590
Orrong Road Armadale, beside Toorak Park and next to historic Beatty Avenue and
Toorak Railway Station, the 2.5 hectare site will be transformed into a luxury
residential precinct of four leafy quarters, comprising 448 luxury apartments
and 18 townhouses.
Lend
Lease has worked in close partnership with architects Denton Corker Marshall,
interior designers Carr Design Group and landscape designers Tract to create a
vibrant new neighbourhood that celebrates and adds to the charm of Armadale’s
expansive and green streetscape.
A third of the project will be transformed
into open space, featuring communal gardens and direct access to Toorak railway
station through a publicly accessible tree-lined boulevard.
Interested
buyers can register their interest now by contacting Mark Daymon on 1300 133

Armadale's Thriving Cafe Scene
Aside
from the superbly crafted designer features of the development, one of the
biggest assets of Toorak Park is its location.
Armadale has everything from elegant restaurants and weekend cafés to recognised brand shopping and specialist designer boutiques and retailers. Last weekend, we explored Armadale’s thriving café culture...
8 Days Cafe
Location:1184 High St Armadale
Phone: 03 9500 9711
8 Days delivers
beautiful coffee and delicious food. We loved their fresh breakfast offering.
Their
coffee is made from the finest specialty coffees from around the world and the cafe takes
pride in implementing best extraction techniques to provide a truly enjoyable
coffee experience.
“Gym junkie” - smoked salmon, sautéed spinach,
avocado, poached eggs
Two
perfectly poached eggs were succulently seasoned with savoury smoked salmon and
accompanied by luxurious avocado and sautéed spinach. In all, this dish was a
respectable assembly of breakfast essentials.
12
hour lamb Panini
The 12
hour lamb Panini was a winner. The lamb was beautifully tender and the tomatoes
brought a lovely freshness to the Panini. We loved the generous spread of
hummus which brought all the elements together in perfect harmony.

Our coffees were well made, with a brightness courtesy of the top shelf foundation espresso. Each came with the requisite rosetta in the milk foam.

looking to wine down (literally), Armadale houses an exciting range of wine
bars. The Tasting Table Wine Shop is more than your neighbourhood bottle shop.
It is a wine bar that sources and sells some of the best local and imported
wines that you won’t find elsewhere.
What’s
more, you’re allowed to try before you buy as patrons are invited to sample before
buying. The
Tasting Table Wine Shop practices a try-before-you-buy model, inviting
customers to sample their wares before committing to a whole bottle.

Armadale’s celebrated landscape of open space, beautiful gardens and impressive streets and homes makes it a fantastic location where residents can enjoy the local amenities, transport or proximity to the city. We enjoyed spending the day in this leafy inner-city suburb where people live in the heart of a vibrant community whilst enjoying a relaxed suburban lifestyle.
