Pass through this door covered in pink neon and you are at Ms. G’s. The decor is grungy New York loft style, with a graffiti wall, ceiling of jam jars, seats made up of Yebisu beer crates, all in a mood lighting that’s not unlike those used in red light districts (which is only a street away, for your information). The two chefs, Dan Hong and Jowett Yu, one of Vietnamese origin and the other Taiwanese, joined forces to create a menu that blends Vietnam/China/Taiwan/Korea, then infused it with a bit of America.

There’s a good range of beers, sake, and some fun cocktails served in plastic bubble tea cups, and yes, they even have the special sealing machine and the big straws. I tried a Mull It Over (14 AUD), a mix of Beefeater gin, pomegranate liqueur, mulberry vinegar, orange, lemon. The drink was excellent, though it wasn’t served in a bubble tea cup as it belongs to the “unpackaged” section.
