Mietta's Review
Still referred to as the bar that used to be "La Grange" (aka the Grunge) - a Canberra institution. It was the favoured haunt of pollies, staffers, journo's and hangers-on Wednesday and Thursday nights when Parliament was sitting. The new Minque has added some upmarket decor, put some tables on the old dancefloor, removed some of the tackier furnishings and has more food available - eye fillet, crispy bacon and bearnaise sauce.
