Madame Brussels - Brothel Cum Bar on Bourke Street

• Although few things eclipse writing this blog and
  I realise that my long suffering readers began to
  enjoy my daily epicurean diatribes, sadly I had
  to take a break for a few days. It is a sad day
  when work gets in the way of things that you
  really like to do however since these ramblings
  are fuelled by trips to places that provide food,
  drink and service in and around Melbourne,
  sometimes I need to prioritise paying the credit
  card as someone at the end of the day has to win
  besides Gail Kelly.

• Besides, I have not come across many restaurants
  that trade fine food and beverage for the lint in
  your pocket so I need to keep my priorities in
  check. After a marathon 40 posts in a row, I
  thought this blog had a good foundation or
  "pillars" as what some bloggers call core
  information so hopefully during my short trip
  away from the laptop everyone has found a new
  restaurant or bar to experience based on what you
  have read here.

• At the "Paris-end" of Bourke Street, you will
  find a brothel that has sense been converted into
  a bar. Like with the whole mad scientist theme
  that Croft Institute has going on, the
  overarching theme for Madame Brussels works. When
  you actually find the building at 59/61 Bourke
  Street, you need to navigate stairs in an old
  building or take the equally old lift to the top
  floor.

• Walking out on fake grass (turf) in a make-shift
  wicked garden of sorts with metal furniture,
  picket fences and a garden theme that takes me
  back to my childhood when I used to visit my
  grandmother is nostalgic however when you see the
  staff dressed in very skimpy and appropriate
  costumes that compliments the setting you realise
  that you can relax in this wicked garden knowing
  that you will not see Dr Harry or Joanna Griggs
  hanging around looking to do any repairs or
  provide any consulting.

• It doesn't matter if you like looking at girls or
  guys, usually the patrons and the staff are
  usually more attractive (according to my
  bastardised sense of beauty) compared to most
  other places that I have found and on Saturday
  afternoons, I have found most of the patrons to
  be women.

• Walking out from the garden, you can sit on the
  rooftop deck and enjoy both the Melbourne
  cityscape and table service. The jugs of Mai Tai
  come at a price however are so worth it and I
  have been guilty of drinking away many afternoons
  as their quality cocktails can't be matched. The
  table service is hit or miss however I have
  noticed if you tip that the attention levels from
  the attractive staff are piqued.

• Try not to sit next to the staff kiosk outside as
  there is a fair amount of foot traffic around it
  and it will distract you from enjoying your time
  at this converted brothel. If you plan on
  spending some time on the rooftop deck on a sunny
  day, make sure to take sunscreen and sunglasses.
