WINE AND BURGERS De Iuliis Wines at Pokolbin and Newy Burger Co are officially an “item”. Well, at least until January 7. The burger truck will be parked at the winery and you are welcome to eat your burger inside the restaurant if you choose.
SHOP FRONT Cargo Espresso Bar has officially opened a kiosk at Redhead Beach. The temporary container has gone.
CITY’S HEART It’s good to see inner-city business helping one another. Studio Melt and Estabar, for example, have a deal for customers where a free Estabar coffee is offered for every purchase over $50.
FOOD AND TUNES The Spanish Courtyard BBQ returns to Bar Petite tomorrow (December 23). Enjoy live music, paella, sangria and tapas plates from 6pm. Bookings recommended.
SET AND FORGET A “set and forget” app that helps you cook on the barbecue? Yep. Matador’s new Radiant Pro charcoal barbecue enables pit temperature and cooking progress to be viewed and controlled via the Matador app. Users set the desired cooking temperature via the large LCD screen display on the controller or the app. Notifications are received when food is ready, pit temperature is too hot or cold, Bluetooth signal is out of range or your BBQ fuel levels are low.
