King Mo Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Loads of Lebanese and Iraqis in Australia. Surely there must be someone. Worse comes to worse, you could always order a shisha online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffice to say that they were ruining everyones atmosphere Now I'm not saying thats the case with you but sometimes what looks like discrimination in a hookah cafe` is people being harassed because of their lack of respect for the concept.

Ya-Salam Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 (edited) Marhaba HabeebI am also from Melbourne Cafe Coco is not too bad, Abu Ziad makes an excellent Argileh. There also is Sahara Nights on Lygon St (not far from the corner of Lygon and Brunswich Streets) it is a few shops away from Rumi's Middle Eastern Cuisine Restaurant. There is also Ya Leil Ya Ain also known as Milan's but last I heard that shut down (was also on Lygon St above Milan Cafe). Sydney Rd Coburg also has Efem Cafe (a Turkish Narjileh Cafe), there is also one at Broadmeadows Shopping Center near the Youth Area in Broadmeadows (Turkish) and also Al-Basha Cafe (Iraqi/Lebanese) in Olsen Place Broadmeadows on Widford St, Broadmeadows.Here is another that I only recently found that I have been looking for a while for. AlumbraWith its ornate carvings, designs and the gentle smell of incense, Alumbra has a distinctive Middle Eastern look and feel. Its Balinese and Moroccan inspired features including sheesha water pipes with flavoured tobacco, are all housed in a historic 1882 wharf shed making it Melbourne's most alluring waterfront cocktail bar. http://www.alumbra.com.au/ Edited January 9, 2007 by Ya-Salam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nidal105 Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Hi,I'm not from Melbourne, but I would suggest taking a trip down to Sydney rd. and checking out the Middle Eastern grocery stores there. They should have what you're looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damo2010 Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Hello Rob, I highly recommend Café Coco. Charges: $10 per session 573 North Sydney Rd, Brunswick, VIC, Tel: +61 3 9387 6322 Lisa,Try Café Coco. They have everything you'll need. If they are don't have what you're looking for, try the Lebanese store a couple of doors down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
