Waterslide bar opening at Southgate

Let’s be clear: there is no actual waterslide at Waterslide Bar. The name ‘Waterslide’ hearkens back to the historical waterchute that used to be located on Southbank, propelling fully-dressed adventure-seekers into the Yarra. Perhaps it’s something the owners of Waterslide can think…

Once Upon A Table’s Evening Of Enchantment

I go to a lot of events. The good, the great, the greatest and everything in between. Naturally people ask me what makes for a good event. There’s always two constants: experience and the interaction. To this day, one of the…
