Hi, pretty new to sau, but always keen to try all types of food.

Anyway, here's my current top list:

Bodega in surry hills- great Argentinian tapas style food. Flavours work well. $70 for 10 course tapas, dessert and wine. Need to book in advance.

Penrith bbq chicken- one of the best grilled chickens ive ever had. I had it served on a bed of jasmine rice and garlic sauce. It was moist and flavoursome, not dry like el jannahs. The best post workout meal!

Penrith seafood wetherill park- salmon sashimi. It's just very fresh and cut into nicely balanced bite size portions. Hard to explain, but it feels like you have the right amount of fish in your mouth which you can then chase with their seaweed salad and rice.

^ have you tried HC Hawa, down the road from El Jannahs? Their chicken is nicer!

Really? i'll have to give it a go some time

I had some food from Penrith Seafood in Wetherill Park, well worth the money.

Right on!

What are some exotic things you guys have eaten?

My trip to Thailand was the first time I've tried crickets and grubs from a street vendor. Tasted ok. It was heavily coated in some stir fry flavours. Couple days later i got sick from eating normal food. go figure lol

Also had fried Tarantula in Cambodia while touring and visiting family. It was pretty much like soft shell crab. yumm

Offal is nothing new to me. Pretty much a staple part of my diet lol

I haven't managed to go through the whole thread but;

Indonesian: Ayam Goreng 99... Must have... 10/10...

taste and all is good, but in terms of value, not the best. quite a small plate of fried noodles.

The fiancee and I went there earlier this year. How random that an SAUer owns the place! We had the lamb rack of ribs and a side dish (can't remember what it was) and absolutely loved the food. A definite thumbs up.

Ok, so I went to Momof*ku Seiobo last night with the missus at The Star Casino.

I got the 11 course degustation with half paired wine. The missus got the full juice pairing. Both matched well to our cuisine.

Their menu changes daily, but the standouts were:

Steamed pork bun with sriracha chilli- very soft and airy bun with a decadent piece of pork and hoi sin sauce

Wagyu beef with raddish- nicely cooked with a salted black bean sauce to coat all over

Blood sausage with roasted mushroom- Bloody excellent play on flavours here (pun intended) with a flavoursome sauce

I forget the rest. If you can justify the $185 per head plus $65 half paired wine, then its a goer.

    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
    • Thanks for sharing this, and BTW if your headlights are in good condition they are worth thousands....you might want to consider replacing them with brand new LED ones like this (https://www.nengun.com/78works/full-led-headlights-r32-skyline) and making enough profit to buy a house in Sydney
    • I'm not sure what sort of shops are nearby, but I'd expect any reasonable exhaust shop could put a cat in it that will not restrict the power that engine makes. Otherwise, if you want to remove it, short lengths that replace the cat are readily available online, search for "de-cat pipes" or "test pipes"
