We recently made our annual pilgrimage to the Sunshine Coast for the Noosa International Food & Wine Festival (NIFW) to share a weekend of sunshine & happiness with friends. The crew of 6 made our way up the coast separately from Brisbane, the smart ones took the day off work and came up early, the unlucky ones left Brisbane late Friday afternoon and endured 3 hours of traffic. But it was worth it, to relax and enjoy a weekend of good food, wine and friendship.
I love travelling with music. I like to think I have a playlist for every occasion, but sometimes you visit an establishment that has just the right music to suit your mood. That’s exactly what I discovered at L’Atelier, a charming new apartment in Daylesford with a great music selection including a nu-jazz compilation that suited the French styling to a tee.
Dark Mofo is back, and it promises to be ‘colder’ and ‘darker’ than last year’s inaugural event. Tasmania’s premier winter festival returns in June, embracing the dark and reinvigorating the city through a packed program of art, food and music.
Sophisticated and luxurious are not words usually synonymous with Brisbane’s inner-city Caxton Street. But that’s all about to change with the opening of Brisbane’s newest luxury boutique hotel, Gambaro Hotel. The strip has recently being gentrified with the addition of neighbouring hip watering hole Lefty’s Old Time Music Hall and cool gastro pub Statler & Waldorf making Caxton Street the entertainment hot spot once more.
