yep, but to be honest the worst Paella I've ever tasted in my life was at last years Johnston St festy

I threw away the first serve & stupidly went back to another stall for 2nds and piffed that too

jesus they eat some wack shit in the USA..........

(CBS) It could be the world's unhealthiest snack. The ultimate in fast-food indulgence is cooked up, not by a restaurant chain, but by a minor-league baseball club, reports CBS News correspondent Cynthia Bowers.

It's sweet like a doughnut, and then you've got the hamburger. You've read that right. It's a burger with cheese and bacon, sandwiched between a Krispy Kreme doughnut - a heart attack waiting to happen. A burger so perfect, they say, tampering is discouraged.


Tt's breakfast, dinner, and a little dessert all in one. That it packs up to 1,000 calories - the donut alone has 10 grams of sugar..

i reckon i still would try one................

yu-u was brilliant as usual. their gyoza are to die for- so light and fresh. pass on the chicken hearts tho. gastronomic extravaganza + shochu + asahi + hot and cold sake = good times but hurty today

I like Otsumami but personally wouldn't rave about it. Perhaps too much of it's sister when I hung around Kent St a bit (although the salads are nice I think id prefer more traditional japanese). I was pissed off when i ordered vege gyoza and got suprise pork from Otsumami.

You can't really marinade mince meat can you? Cause you have to cook off the excess water with no oil and marinades contain oil. This is right, right?

I'm not totally bound to traditional styles but i guess i just really like a good stew or other sort of slow cooked mountain vege styles that you wouldn't get in most izakaya style places. otsumamai is not bad at all though...

ahhh.. lemme know name will ya? new brekky haunts are good

gingerlee is sooo good but gripe is: limited options for someone who hates eggs and they will not alter their menu in any way. fail imo

a minor place is also good yeh but struggle to get a table let alone one in the sun. i'm always cold there for some reason

small block was busy but we only waited 5 mins for a table- they were getting em through
