nice, chill place to hang out with a glass of wine – and have a dessert (or two). this local microbrewery is pretty top-of-its-class, with a view up on its place on the thirty-third floor (the name’s a no-brainer, really), with a good selection of food and drinks, a good mix of standing and sit-down space – and it feels pretty cozy, even with the throngs of people that come here post-work.
I’ve recently taken to a glass of muscato a week (hey, it’s sort of like wine, which is sort of good for you, right?) – and this place serves up a sweet, honeyed glass of loveliness. it’s smooth and mellow, and quite a nice glass to start with – and of course you could go for one of their beers, brewed not a couple steps from you.
but I’d like to talk about their desserts too (a proper meal here is still a pending to-do) – and in particular, this interpretation of a sticky date pudding with triangular block of cake topped with a fig compote and goat’s cheese caramel. it’s a subtly sweet cake that plays up to the sharp savoriness of the goat’s cheese (which isn’t something I usually eat, but this was properly moderated), and the soft vanilla ice cream on the side.
very pretty, very modern, and a well-portioned plate of enough sweet to sate without cloying.
I’ve also tried their fondant previously, and it’s pretty good too – but I’m working my way up to the assiette, which is a two-person platter of dessert. I could really do with one right now.

p.s. I’ve heard mixed reviews of the food here – so if you’re not going to do a full meal, go at least for a nice cap off the weekend. friday’s tomorrow!!
Such a a beautiful display on the plate! I’m content to just look at it:)
I like your showing 2 different levels of focal length in the top 2 images!
I KNOW! my current camera is such the bomb!
That’s what you thought until you went to that hot plate place right? What do you shoot actually?
this is with my new camera, and that was with the older one! the problems of posting about places from an extensive backlog.. I’m currently on a sony apsc, and a prime lens. it’s awesome!
my previous canon was slightly lower spec, and not nearly as powerful in low-lighting. still felt like I was giving away a kid when I traded it in though.
Tell me about it, my whole blog is one big single backlog! That’s actually what takes the most time – deciding on which place is next, as I’m not doing it chronologically.
Can’t wait to see stuff from the upgrade! A switch from Canon to Sony must entail some acclimatization, but I’m glad you like it
