Ivy

the_ivy So I handed in my resignation at a few days ago… to join… THE IVY, along with 399 other staff.

In December the Merivale Group CEO Justin Hemmes will open his new pleasure precinct called Ivy – $150 million worth of bars, restaurants, pools, nightclubs, retail and ultra-exclusive hotel suites covering three city office blocks in the Sydney CBD.

The Ivy will have a pool surrounded by outdoor bars, a couple of nightclubs, a day spa, ballroom for 1000, teppanyaki grill, sushi train, burger bar, wine bar and deli, Italian restaurant and more bars. The entire ground floor will be retail outlets and two laneways will divide two buildings.

Two purpose-built party penthouses will occupy the top and penultimate floors of the five-storey building at 320 George Street. Each will be 350sq m, with staffed cocktail bars, a pool, spa, lounge room, dining area, bathrooms and bedroom – all for a cool $4000 to $5000 a night.

Being Asian I have been typecasted to work in the Japanese restaurant wearing a [slutty] kimono styled dress of some sort. Perhaps I can pretend to be Japanese at the same time, since most customers think I’m from Japan anyway!

I was serving Tara Reid and didn’t even know it – I mentioned to someone that the ‘old woman’ I was serving looked strangely like a very old version of Tara, only to find out that it WAS Tara. Check out this photo of her arriving at Sydney Airport! Makes you think twice before you party til dawn.

    anyway, it’s absolutely ridiculous, this is like audition to work at a theme park or to be in a big budget film, or getting on American Idol, but i hope u won’t have to dress slutty though, COME ON, mate!

    The Ivy sounds like a great place to do a movie though…. Oceans 14 anyone?

    I refuse to beleive Asian people can have aussie accents…

    Only very tan slightly crazy eyed desert dwelling crocodile wrestlers tongue’s can form such

    hideous catarwal’s.

    I also really want to include a dingo baby eating joke, but Since only one percent of the internet

     can be used for non-porn related purposes

    I can’t

     without inadvertantly arousing someone and creating yet a new and frightening fetish
