I love Bistrot du Coin for moules frites. Get em with curry.
Dukem and Kokeb for Ethiopian (DC has a large immigrant population and is noted for Ethiopian).

No idea - but it's in the Retailers thread so…
Ah! It's Corlection!
They do stock IH but not denim…

Thanks @mclaincausey and @seawolf for the recommendations!
Churchkey has been on my list the other two times I've visited, but still have yet to give it a go.
My sister and her husband are based in Alexandria and we'll be nearby, it'll be nice to be in a city with better public transit again so we can see (and drink!) more. -
I didn't know that Corlection have a store in Melbourne…
@johnathon I'm also in Melbourne. The best denim shop that I've found so far is the Up There Store. I'm a fan of the 1955 cut.
-
Made a few inquiries today and "corlection store " will have IH denim in the next few weeks. So will be able to try some on to see the fit. Not sure which cuts they will have but we"ll see.
Graeme… address for Corlection already mentioned is correct. 20 Russell Pl Melbourne.
Up There Store looks alright but they don't sell iron heart. I've been wearing Lee and Levis' for 43 years now.I always got them from Sam Bears in Russell St. What an institution that place was as you probably already know. Sadly they shut their doors last year and I didn't even know until a few months ago.Anyway I'm up for a bit of " modernization " so looking forward to trying some IH on. As a gift recently I got a pair of these jeans called " strange guys" I think they're called. My daughter got em for me and you have to get em real tight cause they stretch a lot apparently. Not a fan...the twins just don't like em, and when I bend over and then stand up there's a big gather of loose denim at the bottom of my arse.. just like a babys nappy full of shit. Not a look I care for. I'm only gonna put em on for a bit when my daughter visits.
I'm gonna give these IH 's a look though but if they don't pan out I'll probably go back to the Levis I think.
