i want taquitos

i had enchiladas.

As long as it doesn't mean I have to eat out of jam jars I'm happy

Drink, rather

Just take a look at what has happened to our menus over the past five or six years. No longer is carpaccio of hiramasa kingfish the default dish on every Sydney menu.

oh sure, I remember not being able to move for harajuku stonefield back in '07

then again I've eaten at about a third of the places he goes on to big up so ;_;

and

They’ve even made gross-out desserts cool by giving them drug-fuelled connotations as in Ms G’s "Stoner’s Delight" - the question being who needs drugs when you can get a sugar hit this big from a platter of doughnut ice cream, peanut butter, salted potato-chip praline, mars bar slice and banana fritter.

hey guys

would prob require some uppers after that lot

ed, I went for a drink later that week, guess what my scotch was served in??

Srsly food writers all need to be locked in a bad Hungry Jacks for a week and force fed.

And I mean. I love food, cooking, cooking shows, reading Epicure but ffs.

hey jam jars are a good way to serve less beer at the same price fun to drink out of!!

ACTIVATED ALMONDSSSSSSS

on one hand i feel bad about jumping on the 'this guy is a wanker' train, on the other hand this pseudo-scentific wheatgrass-a-like bullshit under the banner of "healthy eating" winds me up something fierce and he can get fucked

GUESS WHAT LOSER YOU DIE LIKE THE REST OF US HAHAHAHA

Meanwhile Evans' Wikipedia page was altered, describing him as "an Australian chef, author, television personality and proud owner of activated almonds.".

i misread his 3pm snack regime as one containing 'cacao nips'

ooh

I mean, I know its ACA, but theyve taken to outright lying, now? WTF.

"now", says everyone else.

aca always have retarded reports

ACA is loathsome but I wouldn't mind seeing them go after the rape comedy debaters, they might be interested since it's taking place quite soon after J1ll Me4gher's horrible death.

Did I mention on the mongrel thread that I know 4lan Dr1scoll? he's a crepey fuckwit. Actually if you dig back thru the OKCupid thread you'll find a long nasty screed I posted from an OKC suitor who threw a petulant spaz at me ages ago because I dared to say his asking about my dating someone else was none of his concern. Thats the guy. He's a master of this cooly pretend empathetic "now let me 'splain" patronising tone. Horrible person.

here is a chance to make some bullets for aca to fire at him.

Eh tbh i wouldnt wish the ACA hunds on anyone.

relese the hunds

looks like it's off according to the pub's facebook page - never gave permission for it

thank frig for that.

never gave permission for it

why should this stop them amirite

Oh yeah it got pulled about half an hour after the kerfuff blew up y'day afternoon. The manager claims he had no idea what kind of debate/night it was gonna be (hmm) and evebn the guy who designed the poster has posted a full and very upset apology saying he was a dick, didnt think at all about what he did and he's very sorry (and deleted the poster).

Its just this one guy who stayed on to defend the concept, wouldnt listen to anyone else, scoffed at people who told him he was mansplaining by saying "stop it with your shitty internet memes ffs" and the thread was at about 400 comments last I looked

And he's now saying "me and my wife are copping personal abuse messages so I'm not discussing this any further". Which you know, lol? Or not maybe.

these third-generation australians with asian grandparents should go back to their own country amirite

to be fair, they did uncover that the Chinese Medicine shop was run by asians

no, they mistakenly claimed it was run by roundeyes who were forced to move to make room for asian shopkeepers.

The manager claims he had no idea what kind of debate/night it was gonna be (hmm)

can imagine if it's something like, say, 'regular comedy night' that someone else does the legwork on actually organising, they probably didn't know. i rex a few bar managers will prob take a bit more of an interest in lineups in coming weeks.
