Been to melting pot on king william ? if not try it, they do a degustation menu, try with the wine matches yuuumm.

Crown and sceptre aint to bad for drinks, or BOHO on unley rd and they do alot of nibble food.

Lol how did the person get kicked out of there ?

did that 2 years ago, one of the best meal i ever had (best is 14 courses @ Tesuya Sydney:P)

the award winning chef then sold the business to the current owner last year, I checked their menu a month ago and it didn't change much

If you really get stuck writeoff and can't make up your mind with all these great suggestions, I'll lend you the SLED for a night and you can take her for a spin along the coastline. :P

It turns out that she is a bike chick and had a nice street bike in the garage. She's into cars as well. I spoke about your bike and offer of the SLED. Cafe Salsa was good but not what I expected.

Did you actually end up taking her to Cafe Salsa?

I suppose I'm a little bit biased towards that place.........it's more of a restaurant these days.

I agree. I wasn't going to have a meal on the first date. Just drinks and nibbles and maybe icecream later. Less pressure and less $ blown if it turns out that you don't really like each other that much.

yeh now that one now been on couple dates last couple months an did the whole take em to nice place for dinner then movie an turned to shit most of the time $150+ l8r i find this out

belair hotel FTW these days or if shes a bit of a keeper the ed hotel bottom of belair is realy nice, btr this time of yr havin meal in beer garden. then up to windys for ummm a chat

Yeah. I scored hugh brownie points when I first suggested it as she is a salsa dancer but both of us were surprised that it turned out to be an Italian restaurant. Still had a good meal in a relaxed seventies atmosphere. It was a bit cold for a walk along the beach though as we were both in short sleeves and I didn't have any tops or blankets in the Pug.

Glad you had a good meal.

You're right, Salsa is not really an Italian name is it.

Marco has this thing about the 60's & 70's retro look with the furniture.....not my cup of tea but some people like it.

Didn't think of it but you probably should have mentioned that you were a friend of the landlords......you may have scored a free drink (or maybe not).

If yes then we all know where to take someone on a date haha

or BOHO on unley rd and they do alot of nibble food.

Prob wasn't alternative enough!!

Theres a killa joint for food on Unley Rd called Vino, nice food and then BOHO across the road for drinks after!!

But Spats is the go if it's just for sweets/coffee!!

for u Karly, Maccas would be a great place to take a girl:)

The closest bowling to the city that I know of is on Goodwood road (which is right across the road from a maccas too karl!)

Otherwise head east to the Bowling centre in St Peters/Norwood

-D

No macca's thank, hmm maybe bowling at norwood and dinner somewhere around there as well.

heaps of good food around that area, one in particular i'd recommend is the imperial peking chinese restaurant on payneham road, st peters. its just around the corner from the bowling. top notch tucker

-D

thank you sir!

She is vegetarian, i'm sure they are ok for that? most places are now.

yeah, just have to mention it - there are quite a lot of vegetarian choices on their menu

I don't get it.... Almost anyone that's been to Spats raves about it. I've been there twice with the mrs and friends and both times the smell in that place was absolutely disgusting (if you can imagine strong parmesan cheese mixed with vomit).... I won't go back there!

    • Nah its a server spammer thing  Although, now that I manually approve all the accounts I can probably loosen up some of the restrictions.  
    • Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)      
    • Thanks buddy. I thought it was a server storage thing. 🤣
    • Perfect! Thanks for this, both look like great options!
