Who Works In The City And Whats Some Nice Places To Eat Out At?


Recommended Posts

I went to a place in the city last year for yum cha... dunno what it was called... but it was huge!! everytime i thought that was it, you kept walking and there was more rooms and more ppl !!

dunno what the food was like... i didn't eat...it was lunchtime after a hens night... i was not well.

(place we stayed at was pacific international apartments - it was out the back and across the road of there).

LOL @ Adam... Speak as though you have some Asian blood in you my friend ;)

Likewise I'm my own boss; so yeah wouldn't mind a nice "client" lunch :O Just like how I took 2 hours to get a haircut yesterday and brushed that off as a "client meeting"

Mmm.. funny how I came back looking totally different :dry:

hahaha Adam..... Golden Century (or is it golden harbour? cant remember, it's in the main strip of chinatown next to the big chinese gate things) doesn't have attitude for me any more 'cause I only go with my g/f and she's chinese, plus I usually sling them the odd gesture in chinese...

It sucks though, if you and your friends aren't chinese and don't speak chinese most chinese restaurants give you a bit of the cold shoulder.. I feel like punching them when they do that, it's so rude

I remember when my physics teacher at school came to class one day to tell us about his Yum Cha experienc...

I swear boys, there is the ASIAN line and the WHITE-FOLK line...

Yes, I know exactly what you mean... most of the time when we go Yum Cha there is no queue coz you just go straight to the manager :O So lucky we're family friends with the owners of the New Marigold :dry:

One time this woman comes up with her trolley and we're asking her about all the stuff on the top which we could see and she makes a big thing about not speaking english then as she pushed the trolley away I noticed some bowls of yellow wobbly on the bottom shelf and I whispered to my friends at the table, "What the f**k is that?"

She turns round right then and goes, "TAPIOCA PUDDING!"

Kel votes 1 for lunch at Sky Phoenix- sensational food.

For lovers of dumplings, you CAN'T go past Sea Bay on Pitt St (heading down towards Central- same block as word square). Doesn't look like too much from the outside, but the food is sensational, the owner is a sweeheart and the food is cheap.

You'll also get the best Chicken Noodle Chilli Soup from the takeaway in the arcade running near the Commonwealth Bank (same block as Sea Bay). Can't remember the name of the place but you'll pick it by the queues lining up in rush hour and the tables outside with people slurping from bowls!

Chicken burgers from Ogalo on Liverpool St also rock :turned:

sky phoenix is quite good. my friends parents own the place, and their daughter works there. i haven't really liked the food at marigold. i thought it was pretty ordinary to be honest.

there is some nice food down my way (circular quay). very nice japanes place Masuya on oconnel st. definately worth going to.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
