Since Nyala no longer serves tafach mooz, we had room for dessert on Brunswick St and I had a back-up plan. I've been following Good Daze Canteen on instagram for a while and we were both ready to try their cheery icecream menu. It was tough to choose across their flavours of the world (peaches cream cornbread! dulce de leche chocolate alfajor! guava chilli!), and we were impressed that a third of the menu seemed to be vegan. They also keep a cheeky little bowl of Lacteeze tablets by the register.
Michael ordered a double scoop ($9.50) of the very Australian Cherry Ripe and the Viet ice coffee*leche flan. Both were excellent: look at that swoon-worthy swirl on the Cherry Ripe!
I went for a single scoop ($7) of the miso peanut butter caramel, credited jointly to Japan and the USA, and added Nutella on top ($1.50). Perhaps not the most adventurous choice in the year 2026, but an excellent combination: nutty, with a complex saltiness, gooey and rich.
This capped off our meal perfectly; we agreed that we'd welcome all future excuses to come back and try more.

Good Daze Canteen
316 Brunswick St, Fitzroy
Accessibility: There is a small lip on the door and a flat corridor through the canteen. There is a regular-height communal table with backed chairs inside, and a bench on the street. We ordered and paid at a low counter. We didn't visit the toilets.
