Description:
Add an exclamation mark to the end of its name and Collingwood World sounds like it should be filled with ghost trains and kids hurling after too many dodges in the dodgem car rink. But you won't find inflatable hammers in this sparkling new Smith Street haunt. We don't like to gush about events you can't go to.
Event: Launch
Stimulus: Free booze & Food
St Jude's Cellars
Previous occupant The Hideout was a funky, over-priced café that went out of fashion years ago, like nachos, wedges and the word funky. This gave way to Bungalow 8, a café you've never heard of because no one ever went there. Once, when nature called at an inconvenient moment, I went into the empty establishment, asked to use their facilities and was told it was for customers only.
The Pond
Hey Melbourne, as of 4pm today, get ready for "a breath of fresh beer air in a world of same same." Somewhat confusingly The Pond is not a body of water, it's a short-term pop-up bar that is brought to us by Pure Blonde.
The whole idea behind the bar is to breathe new life into an ugly urban space and so a derelict courtyard and a laneway has been converted with the cunning use of plants, recycled garden pots, and some amazing BOSE speakers that look like mushrooms.
(bar in progress)
There are some great, unfinished works in history. That stone holiday house just outside of Wiltshire. That painting where the people aren't coloured in. That statue with no penis.
Now we can add this to the list as well. It's a bar-in-progress, brought to you by Jerome in consultation with Liege and Andie.
