Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican musician, made a splash in Sydney during his Australian tour. His first stop was the Rusty Rabbit cafe, a charming spot in Darlinghurst known for its ricotta pancakes and its association with the South Sydney Rabbitohs. But there's more to Bad Bunny's name than meets the eye. In a 2020 interview, he revealed a funny story behind his stage name, recalling how he was forced to wear a bunny costume to school for Easter. Now, let's explore some must-visit spots in Sydney that Bad Bunny should hop to next, all tailored for the baddest of bunnies.
White Rabbit Gallery, Chippendale: Immerse yourself in contemporary Chinese art at this gallery, which boasts one of the world's most significant collections. The current exhibition, 'The Hooligans', showcases how Chinese artists responded to censorship during the Mao era, aligning with Bad Bunny's bold and outspoken nature.
Cafe Paci, Newtown: Indulge in a unique dessert at this European-Australian restaurant. Their signature carrot sorbet, topped with yoghurt mousse and liquorice cake, is a sweet treat that will satisfy any sugar craving. For a savory option, try the fermented carrot and nduja on rye, or opt for Sri Lankan hoppers, a light and crunchy crepe dish.
Warren View Hotel, Enmore: This pub is a haven for Rabbitohs fans, especially on game nights. It's the perfect spot to feel the love for the South Sydney Rabbitohs and their furry logo. With a lively atmosphere, it's a great place to enjoy a meal and a drink.
Burrow Bar, Sydney CBD: As the sun sets, head underground to Burrow Bar. This cozy basement bar offers classic cocktails and a unique off-menu experience. It's the ideal spot to unwind and enjoy a late-night snack, with a selection of Vietnamese bar food available.
South Sydney Rabbitohs Game, Accor Stadium: In a dream scenario, Bad Bunny's night would culminate in a thrilling Rabbitohs match at Accor Stadium. Surrounded by fellow bunny enthusiasts, he'd be cheering on the team named after a historic rabbit-related business. While the next game is in Brisbane on March 8th, we hope he'll be able to join the fun from afar!
