SAU March Monthly Dinner - Thursday 31/3/2005

[GTRSRULE!!!]

yeah I think 3 times to TO would be enough.

I reckon after this months steak expedition we do Jap next. Teppanyaki or, would could try the new branch of Makoto. For those that don't know Makoto is like an upmarket version of sushi train. it's on liverpool st in the city but they've now opened in chatswoo. I am partial to teppanyaki though...

is makoto a japanese restaurant which serves sushi as well.?

cos a guy who owns/used to own? sushi train chatswood, burwood?, castlehill?

has a restaurant in the city.

hmm actually maybe it was closer to chinatown

[Merli]

Makoto is basically an upmarket Sushi Train. Much nicer decor, more gourmet sushi offerings, etc... Very nice, but quite expensive (worth it IMHO, but then again I always think good food is worth the asking price Life's too short to eat bad food )

Kinda like Toko on Oxford St. A classy sushi train.

[carlo]

The parking in manly is not really a major issue.. Just park at the stack, there is always plenty of parking especially on a thursday night.

R&R is a better feed, but its loud and cramped

lanecove has better service but the steak is average.

So where's it at?

:kick: :headshot: :bonk: :slap:

bar sushi train parra when dad used to own it. bad decisions made by him, he finally got rid of it but still in a legal mess with sushi train.

[Lepperfish]

Just a suggestion for a thai resturant.

Chili Club in Newport is awesome and is nice and cheap.

[GTR_Legend]

well put. that being the case, I still say we follow the chronic steak to manly

I dont understand why Japanese dinners aren't on the agenda more often. I think I've had Jap with SAU'ers once and that was not a regular monthly dinner. We all love Japanese right?

That being said I propose to boycott steak (even though I already voted for LCSH) and say Merli's Makato suggestion is "the win". Or any other Japanese place anywhere (with parking)... I'd suggest Sushi Suma in Surry Hills if it had decent parking and wasnt 125% full every night.

[shonen]

Sewid - Although Im not going this months I think steak is predetermined winner from last months little poll.....

But yes....all up for jap NEXT months !!!

Chatswood Makoto sounds GOOOOD !!

oi! don't pinch my kudos! Makoto was my idea!!!

how's it going mate?

[Abo Bob]

There was a Tepanyaki late last year. But anyway... blah blah blah.

The fact is that parking in Manly is shit. Anyone who says otherwise is dreaming and I'll fight yas all. The other fact is that the food is better quality there. But there is a poll with Lane Cove in front. Let the poll speak for the final call.

Of course there is still quite some time to go and by the time the dinner rocks around the poll could be 54 to 68 the other way round. It's a crazy mixed up world out there and you'd be mad not to arm yourself with a flame thrower no matter where you ended up going for dinner.

never a truer word was spoken.

since when have we listened to the poll? The monlthly dinner venue discussions are the most enjoyable bit!

[ApleX]

there is a car park in manly, its only $4 after 6 and i think there would be heaps of parking. i was in manly last friday night and it was fine. Wasnt scared for the safty of the line, and was cheap.

So if u guys are worried bout not finding parking there will be heaps...

[Duncan]

We have some space and a BBQ......but if we are going the bb option we had better not leave it too much later in the year, good weather is on the way out

druncan, these dinners have been getting progressively closer to your house. I'm onto you. I know you want it in your house so that when you get shitfaced you don't even have to walk home!

selfish bastard.

I wanna get shitfaced too...
