The Carter is a Beyonce and JayZ themed bar in Sydney’s CBD. It’s had a lot of press over here ever since it opened last month, so when Laura invited me to join her and a few friends for dinner and drinks there, I obviously said yes! Also Laura is awesome and ever since our Dubai adventures I’m always up for a night out with her. We tested a variety of The Carter’s offerings, including the Kimye cocktail, the Notorious fries, and The Carter chicken wings. Then we descended down into the hip-hop club beneath the restaurant for some serious dancing…
Eventually after absolutely ages our cocktails arrived. I’d chosen the Kimye, which was a mix of vodka, casoni 1814, passionfruit puree, and orgeat. It was super sweet but oh so good! The others girls chose the Crooked Hillary and the Obama Out! Other cocktails had names including Snoop Lion, Famous, and Pablo.
The music in the bar was absolutely ah-mazing. Srsly. Omg every single tune was a TUNE. As in a just-gotta-seat-dance tune. Obviously with it being themed around Bey and Jay Z, the music was all Hip-Hop and RnB, but I was surprised with how little Jay Z there was!
We ordered a selection of food, including the absolutely incredible Notorious A.N.I.M.A.L Fries, which was a huge bowl of fries covered in a combination of Mac & Cheese, Crispy Bacon, and Cheese. We also had The Carter Chicken Wings, Nas Sticky Lamb Ribs, El Chapo Spiced Chorizo tacos, and the Slow Cooked Beef tacos. Everything was tasty, but I found the Chorizo tacos a little too spicy for me.

I seriously want places like this in London!!!!
This girl’s night event looks brilliant. I am just so pleased to see these photos. We are also thinking to throw a family party and at this time we have been seeking suggestions for the affordable outdoor NYC venues for this bash. Hoping to find a good venue soon!
