By end of the alhol-fueled night, the only two words that they uld utter were, ‘Lucy Liu.’ Opened 2014, ed to be lled PM24 and had a ma entrance on Exhibn Street. It closed and Lucy moved , but stead of g the ont entrance they built and opened up a new, hidn one down the laneway. It’s very popular at the moment as a sharg plate place. Sharg plat is the trend right now.”</p><h2><a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Ponyfish Island</a></h2><p>“The cy isn’t known for inic sights, but I thk we like that. There’s always been a rivalry between Sydney and Melbourne that go back easily a hundred years. There was a big battle when the pal of Atralia was beg built the 1900s—they cid to go to Canberra so we uldn’t argue about anymore. When they built Melbourne’s Feratn Square, they tried to make to an inic stcture, but I wouldn’t put on our postrd, eher. So there’s a pestrian bridge over the Yarra River and Ponyfish Island is unrneath the middle [of the bridge]. They put a bar on the pylon, and ’s one of the most popular spots. Durg sunset you n take a wonrful picture.”</p><h2><a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">ST. ALi</a></h2><p>“In Melbourne, we like our ltle ffee shops cy center laneways and si streets. The only difficult thg is a lot of the ltle on are only open weekdays for the bs crowd. Close to the hotel South Melbourne, and open seven days a week, ST. ALi roasts their own ffee and now they provi beans to rtrants the cy. They’ve done very well. Their food menu is great and based around fort food, like ‘soldiers’: a soft-boiled egg served wh toast cut to ltle strips. You dip the toast to the soft-boiled egg and the toast is led up like ltle soldiers.”</p><h2><a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Midsumma Ftival</a></h2><p>“The Midsumma Ftival is Melbourne's answer to the Sydney Gay & Lbian Mardi Gras. It monstrat the te Melbourne ntrastg style. Sydney has a celebratory para; Melbourne has a march on the steps of parliament to mand marriage equaly. Sydney has dance parti on the harbor; Melbourne do amatr theatre the suburbs. It's an eclectic llectn of arts events spread over 85 venu throughout Melbourne and Regnal Victoria. You get the gays and lbians and all of the letters.

We don’t like to publicize them on the street wh a lot of signage. The reason for this bar’s name is ed to be a scientific lab and they kept a lot of the old equipment, and they do some molecular cktails wh nrogen. The Croft Instute is hidn down a lovely ltle Chatown laneway. It’s three laneways to get there—you see dumpsters and bs and all the Che rtrant chefs lookg at you, like, <em>What are you g down this laneway for?</em> You e to the end and there’s a lady stg at an antique school sk. No signage. She tak your $5, and you’re . The cktails are fantastic. We n get very creative Melbourne.”</p><h2><a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">The Peel</a></h2><p>“[This is] the place to go to dance on a Friday or Saturday night.

By end of the alhol-fueled night, the only two words that they uld utter were, ‘Lucy Liu.’ Opened 2014, ed to be lled PM24 and had a ma entrance on Exhibn Street. It closed and Lucy moved , but stead of g the ont entrance they built and opened up a new, hidn one down the laneway. It’s very popular at the moment as a sharg plate place. Sharg plat is the trend right now.”</p><h2><a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Ponyfish Island</a></h2><p>“The cy isn’t known for inic sights, but I thk we like that. There’s always been a rivalry between Sydney and Melbourne that go back easily a hundred years. There was a big battle when the pal of Atralia was beg built the 1900s—they cid to go to Canberra so we uldn’t argue about anymore. When they built Melbourne’s Feratn Square, they tried to make to an inic stcture, but I wouldn’t put on our postrd, eher. So there’s a pestrian bridge over the Yarra River and Ponyfish Island is unrneath the middle [of the bridge]. They put a bar on the pylon, and ’s one of the most popular spots. Durg sunset you n take a wonrful picture.”</p><h2><a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">ST. ALi</a></h2><p>“In Melbourne, we like our ltle ffee shops cy center laneways and si streets. The only difficult thg is a lot of the ltle on are only open weekdays for the bs crowd. Close to the hotel South Melbourne, and open seven days a week, ST. ALi roasts their own ffee and now they provi beans to rtrants the cy. They’ve done very well. Their food menu is great and based around fort food, like ‘soldiers’: a soft-boiled egg served wh toast cut to ltle strips. You dip the toast to the soft-boiled egg and the toast is led up like ltle soldiers.”</p><h2><a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Midsumma Ftival</a></h2><p>“The Midsumma Ftival is Melbourne's answer to the Sydney Gay & Lbian Mardi Gras. It monstrat the te Melbourne ntrastg style. Sydney has a celebratory para; Melbourne has a march on the steps of parliament to mand marriage equaly. Sydney has dance parti on the harbor; Melbourne do amatr theatre the suburbs. It's an eclectic llectn of arts events spread over 85 venu throughout Melbourne and Regnal Victoria. You get the gays and lbians and all of the letters.

We don’t like to publicize them on the street wh a lot of signage. The reason for this bar’s name is ed to be a scientific lab and they kept a lot of the old equipment, and they do some molecular cktails wh nrogen. The Croft Instute is hidn down a lovely ltle Chatown laneway. It’s three laneways to get there—you see dumpsters and bs and all the Che rtrant chefs lookg at you, like, <em>What are you g down this laneway for?</em> You e to the end and there’s a lady stg at an antique school sk. No signage. She tak your $5, and you’re . The cktails are fantastic.
