Country road sale today fir members.

Their pants are OK to slim but mid to high rise. Something to watch out for.

[napoleon]

anyone have experience with tailoring in parramatta? I need to get some oxford button downs slimmed and was thinking of going to 'Looksmart Alterations'.

I had some suits fixed up by Sam Disano based on recommendations on SF. The prices are good. Not sure if he does shirt alterations. You should be able to find his number online.

[Ivans On High]

Has anyone tried Lodge & King shirt makers? I have had some very positive recommendations.

Walking down George street with some friends and bang. Get sucker punched. Apparently some drunk wang thought I was giving his girl the eye

and then when I spin round he gives his girl one too

gotta love Sydney

[corey]

Yeah fuck George Street. Refuse to go anywhere near Town Hall.

[kicks79]

[superhero]

The best place however is martin place. Dat place rocks!

Btw azzif if need self defense:

yeah sydney needs a scum cleansing pretty soon. At least get rid of the 15 yr old lads who insist on playing their shitty distorted rap out loud on the bus through their shitty mobile phone.

they kill me everytime.

[James Vincent]

Can I put the idea of a Sydney Superfuture meet up on the table?

~10th or 17th of Oct, start with somewhere worthwhile for dinner and head from there for some drinks? I'm arriving in Sydney around the 7th, my brother can be there, I know Arj (TTT) will be in town at some point during October - could be a nice introduction to some of Sydney's better people and spots?

nooo i'm down for a meetup but pleaseee please please make it after the 13th? I'm overseas till then but i'm guessing 10th would be good coz that's a saturday... LAME

[James Vincent]

17th? (10 characters)

[superhero]

17th is good for me!!!! I've never been to a meetup. Is it awkward?!? Coz I'm socially awkward

[TTT]

I'd like to propose the 16th (Fri) JV. Not sure if ill be heading to Bris or Perth on the 17th, so 16th def is best for me.

[Ivans On High]

I'm down for friday 16th.

[James Vincent]

16th is fine by me. Arj, if you have a hotel in the city, I'm calling the sofa right now.

Is it awkward?!?

Not really.

shit i want counter burger now. recommendation for anyone going get a basic burger but try all the fries and get a shake.

good advice.

i'm hitting up bistrode next week - looking forward to it, have heard a lot of good things.

a meet.. hmmmm..

[Ivans On High]

Went and had an apple pie shake last night after sushi train on wllloughby rd (all plates $2.70 after 5pm). Awesome stuff.

[azif]

Bistrode is awesome. If you have enough people get the slow cooked lamb

[homme.homme]

I'm down for a meet up. might be in Canberra for those proposed dates though - will have to check.

had yum cha this morning @ greenwood seafood chinese restauarant or whatever it's called above greenwood plaza at north sydney. really good. im craving another dose right now. yum cha is excellent hang over cure.

Hurricanes...

[sokjon]

Hurricanes...

I can't say I agree with this recommendation. I went to the one at Darling Harbour and it was cheap, nasty and service was shocking.

[Ivans On High]

Yeah, I went to Hurricane's at Bondi or Manly, wherever it is, and it was shocking. Overpriced and appauling service. We made a booking weeks ahead and still had to wait 2 hours for a table.

Go to Lonestar or Tony Roma's for ribs.

+1 since i live 15mins from the city, and ive been looking to shop for fabrics? i cant seem to find any. im looking for something thats fleece, cotton and polyester blend. any ideas, i dont plan on travelling to far though any time soon; preferrably around the city or even better in newtown. Thanks ahead.

Its a generic sushi train, not the sushi train. But the sushi is awesome. It's the first time I've been to that particular one, but I think I'll be back at least once a week if they keep that price going.

As for ribs in the city, check Tony Roma's, and try the onion loaf. It is fried onion rings stuffed into the shape of a loaf of bread hahaha. So american.

[sawn-off chef]

a happy birthday to DJI!
