You mean New Shanghai in Ashfield? I absolutely LOVE that place! They've just done a refurbish of the premises and it actually looks quite nice inside now, and is a bit bigger too. The kitchen has been relocated, but it's still behind glass so you can look in.

Dunno why they have two of them in Chatswood - are they on opposite sides of the suburb? I've only been to the Ashfield one.

haven't had new shanghai in Ashfield, because my fave is 'night shanghai' - slightly grubbier but oh so satisfying. i've never been able to venture next door because I KNOW what i'll get in night shanghai. habits...

they have 2 because they cater to different markets. there is one in a slightly dingy foodcourt (interior isn't that dingy though/at all) but the other is in chatswood chase / ie rich person's westfield / ie caters to people who may or may not know the authenticity of their food/pricing. so to put it another way, there's one which is the exact replica of ashfield pre-renovation, and another which is more for foreigners (so to speak).

Look it up. I'm hungry. And it's dinner time!

Tapas Union

Union Lane Penrith was good on Sat night. Three of us enjoyed 6 dishes.

Essentially, it's Spanish, Portugese with a variety of smallgoods + meat dishes > tasty.

Just got back from here, or what i thought was here- I went to the one that had them making dumplings inthe glass window at the front- then after i walked out, 110% happy i relised that shangai night was two doors down, I ask as the counter and he said night shagai is his mums one. This place was called dumplings something. freeking awsome, They must supply the dumplings to the two stores next door, New shaghai and shanghai night.

you sir, i believe, from memory, have just been to shanghai memory which yes as you said, is run by the son of the owners of night shanghai. it's slightly better looking and a TINY bit more spacious, but barely more so...anyway not complaining, cos as you said the food is JUST AS GOOD (sometimes even better?)

new shanghai is A DIFFERENT company/restaurant (like kfc and red rooster). night shanghai is daddy (like burger king and hungry jacks).

edit:oh and you know what, now that i mentioned companies + restaurants, it makes me think of the fact that in most cases when restaurants are owned/opened/backed by a 'company' the wankiness and therefore price jumps up. i love how most asian foods (barring a percentage of japanese) is free from such wankery

edit 2: ie; MS.G's, Mr.Wong's etc etc.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
