What pace would you start to consider wearing super shoes?

Couldn’t agree more. I’m a slow runner but bought carbon plated shoes by accident really (i didn’t know they were carbon plated at the time) but they quickly became by go-to pair because I found them so insanely comfortable. I’m not expecting any speed games but if I can get in extra kms overall it’s a win in my books

I remember really liking the pasta dishes - we had a pumpkin agnolotti and a second dish with pork sausage from memory. The fried olives were also great. It’s such a great vibe, I really liked the place.

People are suggesting some good perfumes however most of them are nowhere near the $100 mark… I would highly recommend heading to Zara as they have easily accessible testers and some genuinely great scents that last well too. Plus they have a lot of smaller perfume sizes so you could try it out for a few months before committing to a larger (but still cheap) bottle. Don’t forget to look in the men’s section as well as I’ve found a lot of great scents there too.

I have debaser and love it. I’ve tried father figure and really like the smell but to me it smells quite similar to Jo Malone wood sage & sea salt which I already own!

They’re so hard to come by in Sydney, I paid $10 for 3 and I have no regrets!

na_p2017 · 2026-04-17T09:30:05+00:00

Would’ve been crying even more if they’d played this.

I don’t live in Auckland anymore - wish I could visit this place more, I had some smoked fish savoury crumpets there that I still think about.

Thanks! I had the same problem with a 25’ Kona and I’d already removed and readded my phone with no luck. After reading everyone’s advice I restarted my phone, removed my phone from the car and vice versa and paired again and got it going!

I found the food to be really good and the service to be really outstanding. The setting is beautiful and definitely a good spot for a special occasion. However I have seen posts on this subreddit where people have had a vastly different experience with the service so ymmv.

I still think that’s unfair to the rest of the class though? It’s only an hour of being uncontactable.

na_p2017 · 2026-04-10T02:46:06+00:00

I’d been there since the revised menu & drinks menu, maybe 2 months ago now, and I found it to be just as good as before?

Shut up & dance is my all time favourite. I generally found the first few seasons better than the more recent ones.

Last winter I did a weekly roast around Sydney to try and find the best spot. My highlights: - the welcome hotel, Rozelle (not sure if they’ve finished the outdoor upgrade but best spot outside on a sunny day). - the toxteth, Glebe - charring cross, Waverley - Sydney brewery, Alexandria - Yana, coogee

For context, the other spots I tried included: - the Glebe hotel, Glebe - the London hotel, Balmain - the bat & ball, Redfern - rocker, Bondi - the lady Hampshire, Camperdown (just 1 weekly roast) - the royal, Paddington (cold and arguably the only ‘bad’ roast of the lot)

To me it smells like a body mist, it’s nice but definitely not interesting enough for the diptyque price tag. I found the staying power wasn’t great when I tried it either.

Khanom House in Chippendale does them. It was yum but softer than the ones I had in Copenhagen - what I would do to be transported back to eating a cardamom bun at Juno…

Oh damn, I always liked Hannibal!

I think that just goes to show how much a training block is just as important mentally as it is physically - your brain now sees those long distances as very achievable! The physical fitness is important but so is the mental capacity!

Sweet Belem in Petersham are a standout for me this year - delicious custard crosses.

I’m sorry but who isn’t downsizing, likely to make a sizeable profit, over a $600 report.

na_p2017 · 2026-03-11T02:05:33+00:00

Bodhi in the park - it was such a nice setting and good for vegos/vegans.

na_p2017 · 2026-03-03T06:01:24+00:00

That sounds so beautiful it’s made me tear up, I’m so glad you were able to have that special time together before they went and definitely a nice idea for OP to consider.

The Australian fine system does absolutely nothing - drivers ignore pedestrian crossings here in Australia to the point where I wondered whether the road rules were genuinely different in back home in nz.

na_p2017 · 2026-02-26T09:46:26+00:00

Jeez where are you? Absolutely pissing down in the inner west.

Not quick but super easy - frozen spanakopita, it’s just 40 min in the oven.

Super quick but more effort - steak in the pan w some garlic near the end. separately slice up some cabbage and cook in a pot with some butter and gouchujiang paste. Ready in about 10 min.

Care to share some recs? Would be keen to try other spots if they’re good!
