BALMAIN’S BAD-ASS HISTORY

  • Casa Esquina 79 Elliott Street Balmain, NSW, 2041 Australia (map)

WINE, DINE & TRUE CRIME EVENT AT CASA ESQUINA

Balmain has always been pretty bad-ass

Dr William Balmain

Even the man behind its place name was a sea-faring surgeon who traded in rum and took a bullet from his boss in a 1788 duel fought in Sydney.

At this unique Wine, Dine and Crime event, your historian host will bring to life Balmain’s early reputation as a pub-filled peninsula of hard working, hard drinking larrikins and legends.

Immerse yourself in Balmain’s rich history while enjoying a 3-course shared set menu.

Exposing
