GP Lounge/Pub

[ portishead ] glory box

Today went out with a friend for lunch because I haven't met up with him since I came back from Bali. As usual, we spent our day eat, eat and eat... and bitching about putting on weight during this cold Winter... Oh well, that's what food lovers do when they meet!! ...

After lunch, we drove back to city to hunt for a good place to sit down and have some dessert so that we could continue bitching about our own lives... Found a new interesting place next to GPO (hidden treasure!!)... And went to Little Collins Street to check out more hidden hangout to have a cuppa... And that's when I saw Gin Palace's door AGAIN!!!... So Happy!! ...(I've been to Gin Palance once before, and it's SO DAMN HARD to find the entrance because the entrance has no light, and it looks like a warehouse door without any fancy decos)...

Well, Melbourne has a lot of hidden treasures and if you're not regulars and if you don't come out often, you wouldn't even know these hidden treasures exist... Anyway, we went in and occupied one cozy corner all to ourselves and spent the rest of the afternoon there! ...Though their speciality is 1951 Gin-Martini (which they won the 1951 Martini competition in Chicago) but we didn't try any (yet!)...

Love this place... I'll bring anyone of you there if you guys love a cozy, sexy New York style boho-chic atmosphere... and a glass of Martini... shake... but not stirr... =P
