Fitzroy

Mm

... whether it's a Carlton, Brunswick, Fitzroy type area, and pay about 200 bucks.

You would not get anything for that now.

Yeah.

I had a huge bagel phase.

And actually, I ate a lot of bagels in Poppy's pregnancy because we lived in New Mile and bagels in Fitzroy, which is like this delicious bagel place in Melbourne.

I would sometimes waddle down, but I will admit, even though it was very close to the door, I would Uber Eats it.

Fitzroy, all that area.

It sounds like a bit more is happening downstairs than upstairs in terms of the change.

Yeah, I think, I think we're really inspired by venues like, um, Public Wine Shop in Fitzroy and what Nagesh is doing at Bois in North Melbourne that have followed that Pete Franco style model from London in which the bottle shop is more than just a retail outlet, but a place that you can engage with to drink in as well.

Mm-hmm.

So what we wanna try and do downstairs is create a space that people can come from a, for a beer or wine to take away, that's all staying the same, but if they wanna have a martini on the way in or a little snack, that that can be facilitated.

I was

going with a bloke who owned a coffee shop in Brunswick Street, Fitzroy.

What

did...

And his milk.

Yeah.

Mill Hanna owned a cafe in Brunswick Street, Fitzroy.

The cranium.

So lovely to see you.

So whereabouts in the world are we finding you today? I am in Melbourne, Australia, and specifically I am in Fitzroy, so inner Melbourne.

Wonderful.

So you're coming out of winter now, aren't you? I am, but I did spend seven weeks in Europe over summer.

So where are you about- whereabouts in the world are we finding you today?

I am in Melbourne, Australia, and specifically I am in Fitzroy, so inner Melbourne.

Wonderful.

So you're in, coming out of winter now, aren't you?
