Ta-Ke Don
Tucked near Melbourne Central and the State Library, Ta-Ke Don is a grab and go gem where Japanese comfort meets Thai boldness. Behind its bright orange facade, this little spot serves up flavour-packed meat bowls that are as quick as they are satisfying.
For just $10, you can enjoy Japanese-style proteins like chicken katsu, karaage, or tempura prawns, paired with a Thai-inspired twist on sauces. Whether you go for the fiery Thai chilli & basil, the rich green curry, or keep it classic with Japanese curry and teriyaki, every bite is a perfect fusion of comfort and spice.
And don’t miss the slushy Thai milk tea – the ultimate refreshing treat to brighten up your meal.
Fast, fresh, and full of flavour, Ta-Ke Don is your go-to for a speedy lunch or an easy grab-and-go dinner in the heart of Melbourne.
