Greetings, I have risen from the dead
Awakened from soft blanketed bed
Much orange spiked into mulled wine
Beer and absinthe, delectably divine
Bratwurst, raclette, pretzel, brûlée
Can't talk, eating, so little to say
Euro-Markt night was fantastically cool
On again, next weekend, go and be fools!

It's in Madame Brussels Lane, every friday night in July. So the last one is next Friday. It's a bunch of stalls set up with all sorts of European streetfood served. Little Lon Distillery is doing Absinthe tastings in the brick building in the middle, and a number of stalls offer cocktails, mulled wine (spiked with orange liqueur if you like), and beer. Edit: Little Lon Distillery also does gin! The gin old fashioned was A+

I didnt know it was on, and my cousin rarely has Fridays off (train driver), so it was serendipitous. I defo reccomend going next Friday, it's just utterly delightful. I have some photos but I didnt know how to upload multiple as a post to !melbourne lol.

edit: emailed myself the pics, so I have been able to upload them as a post to !melbourne now, with the above link in the description too :D
