A weekly guide to the best cafés, restaurants, relaxation spots, and hidden gems across Melbourne.
What it is?
Pallavi Picks is basically me sharing my weekly faves around Melbourne — the cafés I’m loving, restaurants you have to try, cozy spots to chill, fun events, dreamy salons & spas, and those hidden gems you might’ve missed. Every Thursday, I’ll drop fresh recs to make your week a little brighter.
Think of it as me being your Melbourne buddy — blending lifestyle inspo with local finds, so you’ve always got something new to look forward to. Whether you’re a foodie, an explorer, a self-care queen, or just want a new place to hang out with friends, Pallavi Picks is here to help you soak up the city in the best way.
![No one really prepares you for the mental load of being a mumpreneur!!!
The juggling, the guilt, the constant recalculating of priorities…
But showing up — even imperfectly — is progress.
And that deserves more credit than we give ourselves.
If this feels familiar, you’re not alone.
Just keep going

So we went for it — and here’s our official apology statement, haha!

![Carousels were never really gone.
They just sat quietly while reels stole the spotlight. But here’s the truth: carousels are back—and they’re stronger than ever.
Think of it as Carousels 2.0—a space where attention doesn’t just stop, it lingers.
When done right, they keep your audience swiping, staying, and remembering. Reels may hook, but carousels retain.
So, the question is—are you ready to make them work for you?

![“Social Media is Dead.”
Yeah, we’ve heard that one before. But let’s get real—social media is FAR from dead.
Just because your posts don’t always hit viral status overnight doesn’t mean you’re not growing. The truth? Not every content piece will explode, and that’s okay. Consistency, strategy, and engagement are what truly make a difference.
✅ SEO-optimized captions, help you rank.
✅ Engaging hooks, grab attention.
✅ Strategic content & trends, keep you relevant.
The algorithm isn’t against you—you just need to play the game smart.
Stop chasing quick wins. Focus on long-term growth and watch your brand shine.
We do this every day. Need help? Slide into our DMs!
