Back when I first moved to Brisbane, just over a year ago now, I was staying in a backpacker hostel while waiting for my apartment to be ready, which meant eating out almost every night of the week. A couple of times, I tried out The Elephant & Wheelbarrow, but was never really impressed - [...]
Having signed up as a member on the “Sneaky Peek” section of the Love and Rockets website, I was lucky enough to receive an invitation in my inbox to the Love and Rockets VIP Party this past week. This was doubly exciting for me, as I’ve just moved into the Valley and Love and Rockets [...]

By some strange coincidence, the first time I went to Sunbar in Fortitude Valley was also the last night that Sunbar was open. Because he was losing his job the next day and because I had two cute backpackers on my arm, we were plied with shots and a good time was had by all. [...]

When I first moved to Brisbane and was waiting for my downtown apartment to be ready, I stayed for about a month at Bunk Hostel in Fortitude Valley. Little did I know that the bar attached to the hostel which I spent my evenings drinking in was an iconic Brisbane nightlife spot. That bar is [...]
Back when I was a struggling student in Perth, somebody gave me a VIP card that got me express entry and drink discounts at Mustang Bar in Northbridge - Perth’s equivalent of the valley.
