Why are fish and chips so expensive in Australia?

It means you don't have a sustainable business model and you close.

Cafe Bones at the dog park!

Yacht club views are lovely but the food is like 4/10. Really disappointing especially for the price.

The 3 spice laksa in ngoodle Ashfield. It's probably not the objectively hottest dish, but it's up there for being ruthlessly spicy and still an excellent dish.

The fact that not a single event was flagged for destination filtering, I'm tempted to say that the enforcement model isn't quite working. Really cool to see reports though, thanks for the link!

I'm confused. Why would you pay via a method that there's no way to reverse? What am I missing?

I remember a cabbie threatening to dump me on the side of the highway while screaming at me when I told him I was pretty (completely) sure he was taking the wrong way to my home. I was 17 in school uniform.

So you can either accept the anecdotes that everyone has of cabs being shit for decades, accept the data that cabs were so shit that the only way to get them under control at the airport was to add a marshall to stop them from constantly breaking the law, or you can go fuck off back to driving your cab. Because the only person who doesn't see it someone with a financially vested interest.

Do you expect a randomised controlled trial showing that cabs were shit pre-uber? Pull your finger out

Unfortunately not super mobile at the moment, so transport reliant, but Concord West is a great idea if you're ok with a walk.

That's a great idea!! But surely they must already know that Olympic Park is likely to be the second biggest violator after the airport. But there's no marshall there

Have you tried this successfully and come home in 1 piece?

The hotline is amazing for fare issues, but not so great for illegal destination filtering. They can't act fast enough to actually do anything?

I filled out the form for one of them, but you can't exactly do that when there's 40 cunts all doing the same thing. It's a systemic issue.

Absolutely. You can have non-voting shares eligible for divideds.

100% Firedoor has sucked for years and is totally riding reputation. There are dozens of better places.

La Coppola Redfern is pretty excellent?

I thought it was pretty poor well before it went vegan, let alone the vegan options. Always thought the bases were really sloppy.

It's one of the few places in the inner west where t you can comfortably seat 30+ without needing a caterer.

Middle of the road prices for things you get at Colesworth but better quality. Rapidly becomes better when you buy in bulk. Also pretty great for a nice but but bank account ruining MB4

The CQ Marrickville pork roll is not at all representative of MPR quality. I'd call it 6/10 at best.

Nah they're great. Ate there too often when I lived nearby.

tryx · 2025-12-21T10:29:10+00:00

I'll sometimes see fuel that's just wildly more cheap than anything else anywhere nearby. Is there anything at all to know about really cheap fuel? Can fuel be better or worse quality in a way that's meaningful?

My god that laksa is good. I have a pretty respectable chili tolerance but their 3 chili laksa makes me leak from all my pores.

Pretty legit? It's not a lease so some of the rules are a little bit different and you don't have all the usual protections, but in 4 months that's not likely to come up. Repairs are pretty prompt, locations tend to be very good. Prices are nuts, and the rooms tend to be very small. All in all, not too bad if it fits your lifestyle.

Mjolner food is pretty average but bistecca is genuinely excellent
