Crackers and breads and dips OH MY. That’s Cielo Rooftop food and drinks. Can you believe – this was the 50th bar in my adventures – and the 4th with Matt. It was our monthiversary and (in terms my mother will understand) we had decided to GO STEADY. Yes. we were boyfriend & girlfriend official.…

Don’t be disappointed when you get to Dirty Sultan and it’s not a Middle Eastern mecca of harem décor. There is adventure finding this rooftop bar.  First, walk down the laneway of beautiful cherry blossoms that is Bëy Lane, til you get to a glass elevator and ride it to the top. There you walk…

Even tho it’s a bit of a chain restaurant, El Camino Cantina has a bar! And it fit in nicely with my Z to A list, and another date night with Matt. The Bowen Hills joint was brightly lit, all vibrant and neon colours outside and in. It’s a LARGE venue and there’s a billion…

For once – there was two beers. TWO (and i wasn’t double-parked). First time at Fitz n Potts was a fifth or sixth date with Matt. He would lol that i was counting dates, but really I was wondering: at what stage in the dating process do i reveal: my hobby for the past 12…

Just because I don’t know John himself doesn’t mean I can’t pop in for a coffee, to the darkened corners of the John Mills Himself bar. (Cafe bar that is). I’ve done beer bars, I’ve been to cocktail bars. Now it was time for a COFFEE bar. Bar #43 for me, and on this list:…

Know that I had walked by Kubo’s bar many MANY times while in Coorparoo, so my next alphabetical list of Brisbane bars (this challenge: Z to A) was the perfect excuse to pop in. Let’s tick off a K bar! Keen to try some authentic Filipino foods, and a purple kind of cheesecake I saw…
