Make sure it's very clean though...

I never paid more than $10 for a pint and we had a bottle of French champagne for $99 (GBPeso 60-80 in a trendy bar in the UK - I checked. So about the same price) in The Trustee.

We ate at The Terrace during the week.Expensive but lovely food.Had two mock-tails at $10 each.

They had champagne at around the $3,000 mark.Thank God we don't drink anymore.

Cocktails at Mr & Mrs G Riverside Bar at Eagle St Pier Brizzy were 18 bucks a pop last night

Needless to say the ladies were only allowed 1 each

Perth CBD has changed beyond all recognition since we have been and especially in the last 2 years. There is so much to do there now and it is rocking on weekends. We don't get out much but when we do have a great time in the CBD.

It's only going to get better with Elizabeth Quay, Citylink etc.
