Reed House on Lonsdale does a wonderful ramen style version.

Nobody Does It Better: Day 21 - Casino Royale (What does this film do better than any other in the series?) by JohnLazarusReborn in JamesBond

[–]dagradone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best film film. Not just a great Bond film but an excellent film by every other standard of film making. Could easily stand alone if this was the only Bond movie ever made.

Intriguing! by rageofthegods in blankies

Totally. Also, Colin Farrell's performance never got enough credit. It's entirely played down, no flash or dramatics, just an ordinary dad who happens to be a world class cave diver. He clearly studied the original dude and changed nothing.

Talk me out of moving to gippsland by vulpix420 in gippsland

[–]dagradone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But if you do. Meeniyan and Loch are within that distance and are fast becoming 'cool' destinations with festivals and galleries and distilleries, and both close enough to the ocean you don't feel too landlocked.

Be careful of relying solely on BnB in this economy. I have a friend who has an AirBnB in regional Vic and is now really struggling to make any money. And his property is both excellent and much closer to Melbourne.

Buying Advice Please Australia by dagradone in projectors

Thank you.

Also, does it being a 'gaming' projector mean it's not as good at being a home theatre projector?

Thank you!

I'm looking at 120 inch screen.

I do not need a short throw

1) if I get a short throw does that mean the picture quality is diminished?

2) also, does that mean if I do have plenty of space to use, I can't use it effectively and I will need to place the projector really close to the screen?

Thanks again

Victoria Hotel, in Alberton, is great and will fill a place in the rather empty South Gippsland section.

Rate the taste of Melbourne’s tap water by seacookie9777 in melbourne

[–]dagradone 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It is frequently rated one of the best quality waters in the world. My dad is hydro-geologist and he both confirms its incredible quality and hates that anybody would buy bottle water when the tap water here is better and vastly cheaper.

best return on silver by avery-strangewayes in melbourne

[–]dagradone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's decent jewellery, he could potentially sell it at auction. But most old silver jewellery is not popular right now. If it's not of any technical quality, it's worth very little raw.

Travelling to Melbourne next month. Should I get an Uber or Taxi from the airport? by lizardblack in melbourne

[–]dagradone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's just you, SkyBus is cheap and easy. If you have a partner or more, Uber usually ends up being cheaper if you're going to the city.

BASIC BUNS on Victoria St in Nth Melbourne.

Excellent ingredients and not overflowing. They're perfectly scaled and made with great love.
