The Thousands

Remember those days when you picked up a Sunnyboy from the milk bar on your way home from school? Well they’re back. Kellie May Grigons and Margo Orr, who also own the Order of Melbourne, are taking a trip down memory lane one soda float at a time with their new corner store. They’re selling all sorts of grocery items (watch your backs, Errol Street convenience stores) as well as butter by the pound, organic milk in glass bottles and mystery tins!

"What’s in them?"
"It’s a mystery. Derr."

Okay, milk bars rule, but aren’t we all grown up now? I’m a rocket scientist! She’s a brain surgeon! The important thing is, we both do brunch – and Margo and Kellie are offering an all-day breakfast menu, including a curious item called ‘Spam’. All the jams and relishes they use are home-made, just like Grandma’s (actually Margo’s mum makes them).

Oh and make sure you grab a lolly bag before you go. Maybe pack a few extra freckles for little Georgie across the road. You don’t like her yet, but you will.
