 ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌   [Broadsheet]( 26 - 01 September 2019 [Things To Do]( There’s something great happening in Melbourne every day of the year. Hi Melbourne, The CBD’s slick new food hub is throwing a party with free Reubens and filter coffee, and a Melbourne cheese icon is opening a dedicated cannoli bar (and giving the treats away to celebrate). Plus, two of Melbourne’s best chefs are joining forces for a hotpot party, and a pint-sized distillery is hosting a spring gin soiree (early birds will be rewarded). You can also wander an abandoned quarry, go full-voyeur with baggage from people’s break-ups, and do your last-minute Father’s Day shopping. See you around town.  Broadsheet top pick [ ]( [Free Reubens, Filter Coffee and More at an 11-Hour Party in the CBD There’s an augmented-reality version of Central Perk, Lamington Manhattan cocktails by Blackhearts & Sparrows and Byrdi, and you can have your Levi’s denim jacket patched for free at Melbourne’s sleek new CBD food hub.
