Bidi Bondi
This Aussie-themed sports bar finally makes the Palm's social scene worth shouting about. Although hard to find on the beachside of the Shoreline apartments, once you're there, you'll feel like you've really arrived. The light, airy bar looks out onto a sun-dappled terrace that in turn gives way to a pool, landscaped gardens and a beach. The stunning setting has already attracted the surfy chic set. The food's also good as the same company that launched Apres and Left Bank is in charge, so it hasn't suffered from the same teething problems that many new start-ups face. In fact our only real reservation is that a Friday afternoon visit can induce a severe dose of lifestyle envy.
