What to expect from Bar Kokomo, Anneliese Grazioli's second bar

Something a little different to the usual on this episode: we're talking to award-winning bartender Anneliese Grazioli and breaking a bit of news — she’s got a new bar on the way, called Bar Kokomo, so we’re going to find out what to expect when it opens in mid-to-late September. Anneliese has built quite the career for herself up in Darwin, she worked for a long time for David and Kelly Robinson, at their longstanding tequila bar and restaurant, Hot Tamale, she’s won a bunch of bartending comps and prizes during that time. Anneliese then went on to become a business partner of the Robinsons, opening her first bar — Hanky Panky Lounge — at the start of 2022. It must be doing well, because bar number two is on the way.
