Good eats in South Yarra?

We will be house-sitting in South Yarra during the Xmas week. What's good to try out there? Breakfast? Lunch? Dinner? Markets?

    1. It's a bit sparse, but you can easily get to other suburbs.

      In South Yarra, it has to be Da Noi (95 Toorak Road, South Yarra), a Sardinian restaurant - trust the waiters and just have whatever they are cooking that day.

      Basque at the southern end of Chapel Street (so Windsor rather than South Yarra) is great for tapas with an excellent Spanish wine list.

      France Soir at 11 Toorak Rd is a great French bistro that I wish was my local. Solid and dependable, but not stellar.

      Be aware that many restuarants will close some or all of the christmas week. Closing Xmas eve and reopening late January is not uncommon in Melbourne.
