yak bar and food - russell st (cnr flinders lane) melbourne 3000 9654 6699

i like yak. i hate yak. i don't fucking know. sometimes we go and it's really good. bar staff actually serve you, you get your drinks within the hour, you can find places to sit. other times there are no seats, the 'bar staff' do another job entirely, drinks can be viewed behind the bar but not actually touched or tasted. 'can we sit here'? 'that table's for six and you only have five'. asshole.

apart from sounding like something you do at the end of the night, yak is pretty cool. it's central and convenient to complete assholes from the city. and that's probably my biggest gripe. there's not much you can do about them except hope that they get bored and go to bobby mcgees. pre-dinner drinks - perfect. all night drinking - forget it. yak is like having the inlaws over to stay. anything longer than a couple of hours and a root canal starts to look attractive.
