I don't get it.... Almost anyone that's been to Spats raves about it. I've been there twice with the mrs and friends and both times the smell in that place was absolutely disgusting (if you can imagine strong parmesan cheese mixed with vomit).... I won't go back there!

parmesan cheese smells like vomit already, how can u distinguish between the two? heh

if you're after a nice brekky for two, najjars cafe on oconnell st makes one of the best english breakfasts u can imagine and its a nice lil' cafe, not too busy

-D

thank you sir!

She is vegetarian, i'm sure they are ok for that? most places are now.

if shes a full on vegetarian then i would highly recommend this place

Just off rundle st. Been there a few times with a mate who's vegetarian and they have very decent food, meals under $20. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the place is fairly cosy and inviting.

Good for a first date, perhaps a bit on the quiet side tho, better have some ideas for conversations. :bunny:

I took my girlfriend out to this place last night: http://www.scampis.com.au/

Food was good, we had the executive platter for two(a whole lobster with loads of other stuff) - bit too much cheese on the lobster I reckon but apart from that the meal was nice. Only problem I had was the attitude of one of the waiter - ordered drinks entree the usual, she goes off do whatever while we decide on the main, she comes back and we ordered executive platter for two and then she goes off saying we dont need the entree the main is pretty huge etc etc in a real poor attitude tone/offensive body language(the way she was standing) - for a fancy place by the beach and a customer spending big dollars buying their best meal I would expect better - made the experience there a bit average, I sure wont be going back.

    • There are certain tasks, like replacing head gaskets, where it is very much best to already know what you are doing, and if you are not already an expert, then the next best thing is to have an expert around to help it get done. Little annoying checks and steps that are easy to forget or not interpret the results of properly, etc etc. It is hard to convey that to someone as a lesson prior to taking on a job, because there can be a whole list of "if you see this then it means that", or "if this is what you find then you will need to do these other 4 steps first". All the little bits of knowledge around sealant choice (ie, sealant at all? or no sealant? sealant only in certain parts of the gasket? sealant for this type of gasket but not that type of gasket? etc etc) cleanliness checks and methods, surface straightness and finish checks and methods, etc etc, all combine to mean that people who have done many of the same type of job will struggle less to get a good result than someone who hasn't done it before. I've been around this stuff since forever. But I will still consult with my expert(s) before taking on the big stuff with higher risk profile.
    • Well if I end up having to do the head gasket I will certainly find the necessary tools and instructions before beginning... Let's hope it won't come around.   Definitely. Depends on the job but I think "if you want it done right, do it yourself" applies almost every time
    • Can you at least move to a location without so many ladders, black cats and mirrors precariously propped up ready to be knocked down? Or buy yourself a 1 ton bulker bag of salt to drag around with you. Just, you know, sling it over your shoulder?
    • Meh, what's the worst that can happen? If is is supposed to have a washer, and: the spring retainer seals reasonably well on the surface, maybe just allowing a little bleed of oil out, and the spring does not coil bind when compressed that little extra bit, then the end result will be slightly higher relief pressure setpoint, and no other noticeable effects.
    • Weirdly I see a flat washer on aftermarket pumps but as you said it doesn't seem like new OEM pumps have it. EPC doesn't break out the regulator as a separate component either. I'm guessing if the pump came that way it's safe to use as-is.
