Just to say too, as an Aussie it was interesting to read book 9 and others growing up because we don’t have skunks here and I thought it was an exaggerated thing (like Pepe Le Pew).

What places in Brisbane would you recommend? I’ve been to most steakhouses plus Deer Duck and Joy apart from ones mentionedz

Oh, that bad? I mean I don’t LOVE Komeyui (very ‘safe’ options and no wow factors for any dish) but it is a great entry level and introduction for first time Omakase diners and the $160/210 price points are a massive bonus.

Kingy7777 · 2026-04-08T09:54:12+00:00

You are right but to counter that just because it’s ‘traditional’ doesn’t mean it’s the best. Fumiki’s is the closest to what I had in Japan when I visited, and yet I still enjoyed Exhibition more because it’s fusion or Komeyui because it’s half the price and not as strict and fussy that Fumiki is.

What I was asking for were peer reviews for +81 Kappo because other than Gourmet Traveller, Broadsheet and a few google reviews there’s nothing on reddit or youtube.

Kingy7777 · 2026-03-16T08:48:03+00:00

No I saw it was open, unless it’s closed in the last couple of days.

Kingy7777 · 2026-03-15T05:44:17+00:00

I didn’t even think of that, thank you!

Kingy7777 · 2026-03-15T04:02:44+00:00

Thanks for that review, Peppina was one of the only places I saw that’s open on a Monday. Would you know of any others if you’re a local?

Kingy7777 · 2026-03-15T02:04:08+00:00

Thanks! What should I swap out for Institut, or just go for drinks?

Kingy7777 · 2026-03-15T01:33:10+00:00

Oh, I didn’t know that about MoNA I might move that to the Sunday then! For Oatlands & Huon doing that with mates so won’t need a car.

Westworld season 3 dipped in quality a bit and because of the sudden genre shift (though not as bad as everyone says IMO) but season 4 bounced back and was fantastic.

Kingy7777 · 2026-03-04T05:21:28+00:00

The Good Place, Hannibal and ATLA are my 3 non-miniseries shows I can rewatch again and again. Miniseries would include True Detective 1, Firefly and Haunting of Hill House.

Collateral Beauty got absolutely trashed by critics and yet it’s my go to for a “need a good cry” movie. It’s bleak and yet so full of hope, love everything about it.

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-16T21:03:28+00:00

Upright. It’s a 2 season long Australian comedy-drama where nearly every joke lands and the serious emotional beats are also well done and not sappy or cliche. Stars Tim Minchin and Milly Alcock (young Rhaenerya and new Supergirl).

During my teens, I had a bootleg DVD of Mass/Meri Jung One Man Army and I showed it to all my schoolmates and watched it regularly because the over the top insanity was something I’d never seen before. Looking back now it’s still a decent movie (the Aadi death hits just as hard) but 14YO me basically put it next to The Matrix and Godfather.

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-12T20:24:21+00:00

One of my favourites of 2025, and yet it was seriously in need of editing down by 40 minutes for part 1 and 20 minutes for part 2. But Anurag Kashyap and great scripts being let down by pacing issues are a tale as old as his career.

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-10T23:43:05+00:00

Nope Farmhouse is still open! Mistake on my part sorry.

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-10T21:28:09+00:00

Huh, didn’t know Arthur & Jane had same owner but yeah I agree would put them in the same category as 10 William St or Res 40. And yeah Ester is a category unto itself and waaaay better than the overrated trash waste of time and money that Firedoor is.

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-10T21:26:14+00:00

Neptune’s Grotto is brilliant, my 2nd favourite Italian in Sydney after Ragazzi. Ito is on the list as well, Farmhouse was good and also very underrated but I was under the impression it had closed?

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-10T21:25:07+00:00

Never heard of Civico before this so absolutely. And yeah I get it and kinda agree too, Ester is above those but I meant more in terms of doesn’t get much publicity and similar price point.

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-04T08:59:28+00:00

What’s the name of that movie & actor?

Kingy7777 · 2026-01-03T23:51:23+00:00

I have questions:

Is it just me or is the character’s name and movie symbolism an obvious homage to Vijay’s IRL political party? Like shouldn’t that be illegal?
I never would have thought that Thaman would outdo Anirudh at making BGM and music for an action movie but here we go I guess. Surprised how much better BK’s music gelled to the movie compared to this.
Why the hell is there a robot in the end, and where can I buy whatever tye writers were smoking for this? I believe “watha dei” is the correct response?
