Default Sydney CBD Thursday Night Drinks - May 27th 2010

Hi Folks,

After last week's escapades at The Angel, I have had a request this week to head to the Belgian Beer Cafe at 135 Harrington Street, in The Rocks:

The Belgian Beer Cafe

I suspect that I won't be able to get a decent pint of Cider here, but the beer is good, and the food is pretty yummy too - particularly the Moules Frites.

So who's in?

Yes, I had to wait for the computer to finish doing some work before I could post.

Stupid actual work getting in the way of our social lives again...

Hey,

Moved to Sydney about a week ago, so I should probably be sociable and come and say hello!

Anyone 'funny lookin' I should look out for, if only to find where you're all sitting, or do I just listen for the foreign accent (not that there aren't enough of those round my way!),

Rob

Mr Bermudashorts and I are in Sydney at the moment on validation trip but it could be a more permanent move. We were thinking of swinging by if that is OK.

Same question as Rob, how will we know who you are?

Deal me in

Was in there on Saturday, and yesh, I can confirm the very high quality of the Moules Frites.

Oooh, check my accidental Sean Connery impersonation.

I used to live where he used to do his milk round. How tenuous a claim to fame is that? Well that and I've had my photo taken with David Wilkie.

I think that living on Sean Connery's old milk round is probably the greater claim to fame!!!

Bleugh. Who had the bright idea of going out and drinking so much on a Thursday night, knowing full well that I had a meeting at 10 this morning?

Honestly, I feel like a goat has sh*t in my head.

Still, a good night out none-the-less.

Anybody got any suggestions for next week?

Well, I'm guilty of choosing the venue ... but I didn't pour all that beer down your throat Swervo!!!! How about another old favourite for next week ... P J O'Briens?
