Naked in The Sky

Yes that's actually what its called!

Naked In the sky with Rose

Before anyone gets too excited, there are no naked photos of anyone in this post at all. Naked in the Sky is an extension to Naked for Satan. Before I even tell you about Naked in the Sky, I had to find out why exactly is Naked for Satan named as such. With a curious mind, I went forth to find the answer to my question and this is what I found out: A guy named Satanovich (hereby known as Satan) used to distill moonshine in his underpants during the sweltering summer months. Since the moonshine was illegal, patrons used to use the code phrase "Let's get Naked for Satan" to gain access to this well-guarded but highly-regarded liquor.

Naked in the Sky is an extension to this amazing building - it is an open terrace that is located in Fitzroy with an attached indoor bar, lounge and restaurant. Similar to serving up Pintxos in Naked for Satan (which is located below Naked in the Sky), the food here at Naked in the Sky is influenced by the cuisine of the Basque county. I arrived at this beautiful location, walked through Naked for Satan (seriously, this place is gorgeous!) and found myself in the back of the lift that took me straight to Naked in the Sky. Oh and since I got there on a weekday between 12PM and 4PM, tapas were only $9 each - truly a steal!

Naked in the Sky along Brunswick St in Melbourne is definitely worth a visit. If you are already at Carlton Gardens, take a slow stroll over, check out Chapel St for old records and end off the morning with an afternoon drink and a fantastic view of the area here at Naked in the Sky.
