Alex Volkanovski is hosting Australia's first tailgate at Seaworks in Williamstown to celebrate the kick off of NFL Down Under (unofficial title). Hosted alongside Airbnb on September 11, the free event promises beer pong, thong tosses, and gameday grub served by the reigning UFC Featherweight Champion himself. 20 spots go online from 9AM this Wednesday; each one covers you plus four mates, so that’s 100 people through the gate. Mine’s with onions, Volk.
1800's newest GuachiMonton tequila is nothing to sniff at. I sampled it last Friday night after dinner at Darlo’s Linla – one of a very few hospitality spots across Australia giving punters a first taste before releasing the bottle. The tequila – GuachiMonton – is an añejo harvested in Jalisco, where the Guachimontones pyramids are located. It’s tangy, complex, and citrusy (aged in American and French oak before a final finish in orange tequila liqueur casks), and comes with a little liqueur choc from Zokoko. The pairing is $40, available at the below until the end of the month:
NSW: Ikaria, Iberica, El Primo Sanchez, Cafe Sydney, Linla, The Belongil; VIC: Hotel Nacional, Lost Bar, Yum Sing House/LFK Bar, Inuman/Askal, SoHo; QLD: The Mondrian, Ju Ju.
To add to Jack's point... We also got to trial (trail?) run the brand-spanking-new Salomon XT-Evos which I’m sporting today. As a third-time Salomon owner, I’m undecided on the colourway but the comfort is unparalleled. Thoughts?
We go to a lot of events here at B.H. and very few stand out from the crowd. On Wednesday night though, Andrew & I were lucky enough to attend a dinner in Potts Point hosted by the team at Salomon to check out some of their new shoes. The shoes and the company were great, but the coolest thing about the night was being the first people to ever dine in the new (still unnamed) test kitchen from the guys at The Apollo Group (Olympus, Cho Cho San, The Apollo, Greca, Yoko). Designed by George Livissianis, it was honestly the best looking private dining space I’ve seen in Australia. There’s nothing online about it, but keep an eye out.
Has spring sprung? Glorious sunshine across Sydney (and even Melbourne) this weekend has me looking ahead, and I’m going to try and get into the new North Sydney pool after an eye-watering (hopefully not) $122 million refurbishment. If I’m not motivated to goggle up with views like this, I may as well throw in the towel now.
If you’re in the market for some new runners On has just opened the doors to its first Sydney flagship in Bondi, bringing the Swiss sportswear brand’s performance-focused gear to one of the city’s most running-obsessed neighbourhoods. Perfect timing, really, considering they’ve also just dropped their fastest marathon shoe yet.
