Is that the one in pittwater rd ?

If so we were there last year when nick and carlo had the mr2's

Great feed, but if we have more than 8 we will need to book early.

How about Bella Mia? this is a great restaurant in Roseville. it's italian food and very, very good. it's high end though so not pizza, spag bol etc. more like carpaccio di manzo, and scalopine di vitello con funghi (two of my favourites). mmm i can taste it now. or the northern is quite good, plus for andrew they will cook for you. people who are so inclined can cook their own.

Roseville is good for me, actually anywhere is, unless ppl want to go for a mini cruise out my way to a place like the Mean Fiddler, back of Castle Hill?

...and Robin..ill be back in Melb from June onwards...;)

I will give it a miss if its that italian restaurant.. I was pritty disappointed with the food.

If you want decent italian then dee why we should go..  

nah it's not that one. we haven't been to this place before (well i have but not with SAU). it's in roseville near the station. very nice food, but not particulary cheap. no more expensive than R+R though...

When we choose the dinner of the month we need to consider:

1. Parking, needs to be pleanty and safe

2. Food needs to be good and must be able to cater for our group size (2-30 people)

3. Price, its not fair for some to go to places like R+R often as it is a $60 pp without drinks. The Kaiser Stubahan is also Exey (was there on tuesday)

4. Needs to be close to the main group of people going ( Northside)

5. Cannot be too close to a shopping center as its Thursday nights and all the shopping moms are out to dent our cars

There are so many places on the Northshore that we can go to.

makoto is on victoria ave in chatswood. I haven't been to that one. been to the one on liverpool st though and it was excellent.

    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
