144 | DESTINATION GUIDES AFTER DARK LOW KEY Everyman Bar and Bistro (5–9 Hope Street, tel: 0151 708 9545) A Liverpool institution, the ever popular basement bar attracts an arty crowd into a wide-open space fi lled with refectorystyle tables. There are plenty of wines sold by the glass and the tasty food includes excellent vegetarian choices. LIVE MUSIC 02 Academy (11–13 Hotham Street, tel: 0151 707 3200) With a 1,200-capacity main hall and smaller venue below, November gigs at the 02 include a highly acclaimed, stripped-down threeman acoustic show from ex-Cockney Rebel star Steve Harley (12th). LATE & LIVELY Alma de Cuba (St Peter’s Church, Seel Street, tel: 0151 702 7394) This award-winning bar, stunningly converted from a 200-year-old church, has a high marble altar and thousands of candles, which bring to mind its former life. Brazilian dancers and petal drops create a carnival atmosphere every weekend from 11pm. THIS MONTH SHOP Along with branches in nearby Bold Street, Utility specialises in unusual designer goods, from big brands to small independents. The range includes a curved banana guard, and a towel and toilet roll stand from top Italian designer Piero Lissoni. Whatever you need for your home, you’ll fi nd it here (8 Paradise Place, utilitydesign.co.uk). SEE Frank, funny, and packed with hit songs, Hit Me! The Life and Rhymes of Ian Dury is a critically acclaimed account of the life of one of pop music’s great talents. On show at the Everyman Theatre from 9–12 November (Hope Street). GO With 160 stores, 20 restaurants – including French, Italian and Japanese – and a cinema complex across 17 hectares, Liverpool One is one of Europe’s biggest city-centre retail developments and the prime focus for city shoppers (liverpoolone.com). ESCAPE The Blue Planet Aquarium, home to one of the world’s longest underwater viewing tunnels, is only a 30-minute drive from the city. Latest attractions include the chance to come face to face with some of the world’s deadliest creatures, including Stonefi sh, the most lethal fi sh on earth, and 50 giant spiders in the Tarantula Tower. NO WAY! The world’s fi rst port radar system was installed at Liverpool’s Gladstone Dock in 1948. It allowed the monitoring of all shipping in the River Mersey and approach channels.

BON APPETIT UP TO €30 La Storia (3 Linhartova, tel: 01 234 4592) A little out of the centre, but worth a trek for its decent attempt at Italian cooking with a little slice of Italian ambience mixed in, too. EXCLUSIVE JB (17 Miklošiceva, tel: 01 474 7219) At its best, JB is pretty fl awless. Burn your credit card along with the appreciative business crowd at this slick operator. Any dish with truffl es is a winner, as are the well-chosen Slovenian wines. AFTER DARK LOW KEY Wine Cellars of Slovenia (18 Dunajska, tel: 01 431 5015) You could be forgiven for not knowing that Slovenia’s wine is excellent as it is seldom exported. The highlights are from Goriska Brda and the Vipava Valley. LATE & LIVELY Sub Sub (25 Celovska) The name makes it sound like an out-and-out house venue, but this place actually boasts a fairly eclectic range of club nights.

Browse everything from ceramics and scarves through to necklaces (13 Ciril Metodov Trg, tel: 01 232 1743). NO WAY! Legend has it that Jason and his Argonauts sailed up the Ljubljanica river, slaying a dragon here and founding the city in the process.
