Want to visit Sydney's busiest restaurant and bar? Join the queue. Picture this, if you will: at 5.30pm on a Saturday night, a line of thirsty punters curls its way down Cleveland Street for a venue that doesn’t open till 6pm. This is Porteno and Gardel’s Bar on a Saturday night. Suffice to say, you’ll find us there mid-week. Order yourself a Fernet and cola and a plate of pulled pork sliders - mini buns filled with shredded slow-cooked pork and mayo - or a chilli dog - your regular hotdog topped with chilli and fried onions. Fried chicken wings with chilli sauce are a must, and don't even think about leaving without a couple of tiny Spanish beers under your belt. Expect some of the best bar snacking in the country; cute, sassy and pin-curled waitstaff; smart’n’sharp barstaff; and a beautiful, luxurious room. Rock’n’roll.
