BU me

. I have arranged for the bestest ever present for my boss (this conference is for his birthday.) I already had something rad lined up, but I thought of the icing on the cake on Friday and got it all lined up over the weekend. More BU me for having the contacts to make it work.

If it makes him cry, I'm buying myself a pony

not been to enoteca but heard its not bad, the kent has good foods but yer bit wanky and pricey. the north fitzroy arms on rae st is rad. railway on nicholson has great old style nonna food, it's yet to get the hipster/yuppie pub overhawl so its pretty classic old pub. brandon on station st has decent foods too. the empress food is rad when the kitchen is open hah.

maybe if it sells again they'll fix it up! used to be awesome.

Kaiproject · Post by **Kaiproject** » Wed Jun 02, 2010 5:25 pm

sweet, cheers
heaps to check out not to mention all the brekky spots

tre bicchieri fav so far. Two on rathdowne was overpriced and not v good coffee

that nicholson strip does look to be worth checkin alot, heaps there delis/fruitshop/butcher, gud fishnchips etc.
i love the fact that even the little milkbar/minimart on rathdowne right near our place & the GN is filled with yummy gourmet goodies lol (Altho again, not cheap)

Post by **huge** » Wed Jun 02, 2010 5:31 pm

foodies in nicholson near park is the best. forget the rest. fishionable chippery has the best burgers (that arent danny's)

a treat of france is totally awesome.

try out north on rathdown for brekky.

On Nicholson, BAR FRED BEST PIZZA

Well not best but not far from the best, but at a third of the price

Post by **JAMESSSS** » Wed Jun 02, 2010 5:33 pm

Similar amount of moneyz but full time which is the big difference. I was getting paid really well per hour but at the end of the week there was never enough hours. I earned around 30 grand last year but if i had gotten a 38 hour week i would have got like 50! This'll make a huge difference.

Definitely be hasing more beers with ya
