GOODGOD 'Small Club': The Dip is now open for dinner, Sydney (19 May 2011)

55 Liverpool Street, Sydney NSW 2000


Serving up jugs of punch

It seems the American-style eats of The Dip is a welcomed addition to the GOODGOD bar which will be open Wednesday to Saturday nights. The menu style reminds me of the bar snack food being offered at The Norfolk. The launch party menu sounded pretty appetising although sadly I didn't get to try it due to arriving later in the night after the kitchen had closed and the event was ending. I did however manage to try a leftover Mini cookies n cream which probably wasn't the best thing to have with my Sol beer at the time but nevertheless enjoyable as a sweet treat. It's been a very long time since I've stepped into this bar which I vaguely remember when it used to be the La Campana Spanish Restaurant. A young uni-student looking crowd prevails.

The bar decor seems to have changed to quite a quirky yet strangely welcoming setting. I was shouted to share in the Antonio Clifton Punch Jug ($28) which served about 3 drinks. A refreshing blend made to order of Campari, Gin & Cinzano Rosso served with orange and lemonade. A very easy drinking concoction, especially if you've been dancing in the back room Danceteria aka Silent Disco with headphones supplied by the Silent Disco King. Be sure to check out the video of people dancing with headphones which is quite amusing to watch although it does have the advantage of allowing one to talk to their friends without needing to shout (when the headphones are off).
