City envy: we want a 'Seinfeld' bar like Melbourne

With the Central Perk pop-up in London last September, and Istanbul's 'Breaking Bad'-themed café, Walter's, eating and drinking establishments dedicated to TV series are all the rage. Now, in what is undeniably a sign (or is that Sein?) of the times, Melbourne has opened a bar dedicated to 'Seinfeld' character George Costanza.

The neurotic New Yorker is the inspiration behind George's Bar, which is serving up drinks like The Hand Model: 'Jack Daniels smashed with creaming soda, lemon, finished off with a cinnamon powder and George's chickpea brine for some Festivus body.' The bar is covered in pictures of George, and has some of his most memorable quotes emblazoned across its walls. He's back, baby! He's back! It truly is Festivus for the rest of us.
