don't open your big mouth. only tell your trusted friends who you want to feed well.

actually, open it, because then they might reopen their west ryde place that burnt down/up a month ago - that's the reason I haven't had it for ages, because I live in hornsby and bankstown (original store) is WAY TOO FAR for me - so west ryde was PERFECT, obviously until it burnt down. so sad.

so yezz.. I went to hot rocks.. turns out I've been there a few times hahaha... I looked up the address and was like I swear I've been there...

Yes the chicken is more moist, yes the tum (garlic sauce) is better, but the pickles... err... lol.... I do however rate it :)

My mate also ordered a chicken roll ontop of his 1/2 chicken.. and FUARK they add chips into the roll, winner wiiner chicken dinner

YES johnny hot rocks are total winners at EVERYTHING! chips in the garlic sauce is THE BOMB...i could eat that and nothing else HAHA.

and yes the pickles are errrrrrrrrrr i never touch them, feels like a waste but seriously they're so salty, would rather have fresh cucumber or something UNPICKLED.

Ribs and Rumps in Manly is awesome if you want a massive steak/ribs meal.

Aubergine on DeeWhy beach does a good menu, Tuesday's is $30 for 3 courses. Pretty cheap.

Braza at Newport is awesome all the time. Chronic meat sweats ensure shortly after though.

I went to Hot Rocks in West Ryde with the GF but we found the place was shut and had its windows boarded up. A quick Google search revealed the place was heavily fire damaged in October 2012. Looks like it will be closed for some to come.

I guess we'll have to head to the one in Bankstown to see what all the fuss is about - I don't see how it could be better than El Jannah (as good as, maybe; better? we'll see) but I'm looking forward to being proven wrong.

i'm fairly sure we've mentioned why it's better. but to update you:

1. chicken is marinated

2. chicken is not burnt

3. garlic sauce is better

4. for the west ryde store at least, it is MUCH CHEAPER than bankstown and el jannahs.

and yes they had a fire a while ago.

I've created a Google spreadsheet to record the restaurants mentioned.

The spreadsheet can be found here: https://docs.google....QTNDMXFuRVhLZmc

Login details are:

Email: [email protected]

Password: abirdinthehand

Please make sure when you enter details to do so in a way that lets people filter and/or sort the details in the spreadsheet.

Remember to log out when you're finished so others can edit the spreadsheet. :)

I'm looking forward to trying out some of the recommendations from this thread :)

thought to revive this thread with a great charcoal chicken place i frequent;

Charcoal House Cafe

Shop 5, 1 Hill End Rd

DOONSIDE, NSW, 2767

corner of Hill End Rd and Doonside Crescent

http://www.truelocal...e-cafe/doonside

$21.00 gets you a whole chicken, pickles, garlic sauce, family chips and bread - and best of all theres no charge to eat in, great place to be if u a.] can tollerate doonside and b.] like peace and quiet when you eat

i always up-size the pickles and garlic sauce to the family size and grab an extra bag of bread, total cost is still only $26

great small family business serving great food at a reasonable price - highly reccomended for anyone living out in the west

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
