What a collab: Shōbōsho (‘firehouse’) channels the energy of Tokyo’s neon lit, charcoal-fuelled yakitori joints while Dandelion brings the heat with punchy South-East Asian street eats.
‘Strap in folks. It’s quite a ride’.

‘For the sort of blokes who cut their teeth on Penfolds 389 and still hold a place in their heart for Grange, this is as near perfect a wine list as you could imagine. There are 400 titles on the epic list.’
‘Look at it the other way: If we jetted into Los Angeles and were taken to this eatery, we’d be dislocating our knuckles Instagramming about it.’
Here’s a collab we can get behind. Neon Palms, the retro Latin meets 80s Miami cocktail joint on William Street, has teamed up with Vice Burger. Miami Vice perhaps?

This week in Broadbrush we introduce you to one of the smartest wine guys you’ve never heard of, and check out Bistro Guillaume’s $240 Wagyu tomahawk off their new menu.
