Streetscene

[SKYLVIA]

Well most of you guys probably already know about this place, as its been posted on NS.com and some other car forums

This place is located at Torrens shops, and before you start bagging it on the location etc... it seriously is a great place to chill out

The owner has recently moved here from California and opened up StreetScene about a month ago. they sell food (inc. some abnormally large Pizza's, Burgers and Nacho's), beverages (inc. Dr. Pepper, Cherry Coke and other american only soda's), Will be gaining there liqour license in about 6 weeks (BYO at the moment), Lounges, Pool ($1 Pool might i add), and plenty of arcade games inc. Initial D Ver.3, Street Fighter, even an arm wrestling machine.

I went there tonight to see what it was about, not thinking theyd be open, but it was, and the owner and his missus were inside playing pool, apparently i just missed the rush. but i went in the guy was heaps friendly, offering me a drink, asking if i wanted something to eat etc... Had a good chat with him. He asked me if i was apart of a Car club... Told him about SAU and he told me to let you all know that we can get 15% discounts on food (drinks dont count)

All of the food has names of cars, had a quick look at the menu, i think the big steak sandwich is called the GTR, theres also a skyline GTST, MR-2, Supra etc... The abnormally large food includes 12" Burgers, 12" plates of Nacho's and 18" Pizza's. the abnormally large stuff is abit pricey being between $25-$50 but all the normal stuff is normal prices

The owners name is Tek and loves cars (especially the J-Spec ), has car movies on the projector all the time, knows his shit, and a good bloke to talk to.

Apparently Friday nights are really busy there, as i guess all car clubs are trying to find a good place to hang out... but saturday nights seem quieter. i figured instead of hanging around in a carpark talking for a few hours, why not go here, its 100% better than standing around, no music, no food, and the coldness (if you havent experienced it, you will because winter is coming)

Seems like hes tried really hard to bring this place up, so i figured id post something up for us SAU guys, maybe show him some support. and if your a fan of HipHop/RnB youll more than enjoy the environment.

Nice find,B. I say we all check it out!

[shredder667]

yeah that dude's in at bunnings all the time. total champ!

[R3sp3ct]

Sounds like a pretty cool place but I don't even know where Torrens is

[low200]

Torrens is south woden.

Streetrides has a big presence there but canberra cruises and ns.com pop in as well so its a fair hub if car activity. When i last went through you couldnt get a park it was packed! looks like a cool place to chill.

[CEF11E]

cool somewhere to hang out wiht like minded car people that is not a carpark

sounds good

[SKYLVIA]

Asked the guy what time hes closing tonight, he said if theres nobody there by 12 he might close up. sounds like sundays are fairly quiet for him. opens at 2pm aswell

[MIVEC]

Cool, I'll go check it out sometime.

I just hope no frackin tards decide to rip nuts in the carpark and get the place blacklisted with the AFP as a hoon location.

Plus the RTA would probably start rocking up if they got wind of it.
