The Apple Bar has good food but the atmosphere is ruined as a lot of locals drink there so you get the impression your eating at someones local. I could do a cruise to Kravings.. Car would still be cold by the time I got there. You need to Book mate. Its always packed.

you organise, i'll attend.

maybe get numbers and book a month or 2 in advance?

if you want, pm and ill help as much as i can in setting it up.

The apple bar at Bilpin is good always had good a top notch feed there

1 of The chefs from there is on ready steady cook from time to time and bells line of road up through bellbird hill has some sweet twisties makes for a nice cruise with some good scenery and fun roads :thumbsup:

Cruise maybe???? :ninja:

Dinner cruise would be the bomb!!

For serious fine dining.

Sepia. My favourite place atm with edgy fine dining, some slightly odd combinations (so go with an open mind), clever molecular gastronomical techniques used but not at the expense of bastardising the underlying ingredient, somelier is young but very switched on.

Quay, not much to say that hasn't been said, excellent restaurant, not an easy place to book for a Saturday night and of course isn't cheap.

Aria, disappointing on the food front, mostly ok but a few glaring issues with flavour combos IMO, scallops dusted with mace...like wtf, peking duck broth tastes like something an amateur would make with a heavy hand of hoisin making it something you will only enjoy for the first few spoonfuls. Service was poor and timing between courses was outrageous the one and only time I have been there, my sister and husband like it a lot and have only positive things to say about it, wine list is outstanding.

Est. A restaurant for eastern suburbs girls. Salads on the plate for no obvious reason on lots of courses and under seasoned/dressed to boot. Cold deconstructed green tomato gazpacho was nearly perfect (except they took the charring of the small pieces of sour dough a bit too far), sashimi was boring and lacked seasoning, quail had a salad on the side...yeah ok, venison had a salad on the side...huh... However, the passionfruit souffle is as good as they come, for dessert lovers a genuine triumph and worth a trip.

Buon Ricordo, not cheap but high end Italian restaurants in the Eastern Suburbs aren't cheap. I know the menu inside out and it isn't cutting edge but for truffle lovers, fettucine al tartufovo is one to try before you die.

Degustation - Tetsuya's 529 Kent St Sydney 9267.2900 Eatability Rating = 8.1 Expense = Exxy

Been to Tetauya's and rate it highly...

But wouldn't be going there too often as it's a bit too pricey.... Lol

Looking more for a place I can go regularly.

Also went with my brother and his kids to Wagaya in Haymarket. Really enjoyed the whole concept and the food wasn't too bad.

Californian Roll and Tempura Prawns and Wagyu Beef was delicious every thing else we ordered was pretty average. Great place to take kids though

Might have to gee up a dinner cruise then what ya reckon dangerous Dave?? :woot:

yep lets make it happen.. having read this thread I will now no longer be modding my car because ill spend everything on earn eating out!

Charcoal chicken - Hot Rocks in Bankstown 199 Canterbury Rd next to TC Brothers kebabs (also huge kebabs there)

Recently opened up another store 6 west Pde West Ryde.

I find the chicken at eljannahs very dry and mass produced.

Highly recommend!

I love a good Korean BBQ...

Used to go to Carne Station in Parramatta before it closed down.

"Charcoal Mine Korean BBQ" (Church Street, North Parra - next door to the bike shop) is better than Carne Station used to be, as far as I can remember.

"In The Mood For Thai" on the corner of George Street and Horwood Place (diagonally opposite the Roxy) in Parra is great for a quick, cheap feed. The food is cooked and served really quickly, service is pretty good, and it's a relaxing little atmosphere.

My favourite dumplings place is "New Shanghai Chinese" in Liverpool Street, Ashfield (currently closed for renovations), but they've also got two locations in Chatswood (Chatswood Chase and Lemon Grove Plaza), one in Bondi Junction Westfields, and one in Charlestown for the Newcastle peeps.

Charcoal Mine Korean BBQ was good.

I regard the fillings in New Shanghai as equal to Sydney Dumpling King but I prefer the pressed skin better at Burwood.

The Dumplings at World Sq are hard to beat in quality and choice. Just like Sydney Dumpling King, you can watch the workers making them.

Aldo worth mentioning the 6 month waiting list for tetsuyas.

Modern Japanese fusion - toko in surry hills.

(null)

Seconded. Food is amazing (LOVE the dumplings) and the bar is well stocked :D

Tried Mrs G's in Potts Point the other week, another good option for modern asian!

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
