Fans of Hash's city venue will find their tyres involuntarily rolling about 10 kilometres east of Melbourne's CBD, driven by serious #FOAMO.

The Camberwell branch boasts a new menu, located along the Bourke Street strip already replete with the bourgeois of brunch spots. Nevertheless, Hash resists classification.

Installations from Melbourne's trending artists Ruskidd, Crafty Bounder, Vanderlism and II One Art keep things bright and striking, while the menu options are just as eye-catching.

Whether your morning food mood is savoury, healthy or sweet, interesting options abound. Alongside lofty versions of classics, such as chorizo and seared scallops with white bean puree, romesco and fried eggs sit sweeter renditions such as almond milk pannacotta with matcha poached pear, honeycomb, passionfruit gel and candied banana (zomg!).

Appetising lunch choices include crispy duck leg with pan-fried semolina gnocchi, fried egg, smokey maple and herb salad.

The theatre of their signature hot chocolate, with a puffy cloud of fairy floss sitting daintily atop 85 per cent Mörk Chocolate, is a food photographer's fantasy come to life.

Warning: even dignified anti-instagrammers might find themselves surreptitiously pulling out their phones. Hash could be the great leveller.
