Marsupial Madness

The Thirsty Koala

The Thirsty Koala opened late last year, but I haven't had a chance to visit until recently.  You can tell they're still working through some of the new restaurant jitters, but this place is a keeper.  The service is great, the vibe is chill, and the food is unique -- to say the least.  Better yet, they have a BOYB policy until their liquor license is approved, no corkage fees.

Grilled kangaroo strip steak and TimTam Tiramisu are more than just novelties to get you in the door, they're a testament to how delicious thinking outside of the box can taste.
