Hmmm... I can see the beginnings of a protection racket here - visiting menswear stores and demanding that they hand over their stock of fully-canvassed jackets and Goodyear-welted, calf leather shoes or their stock might "suffer an unfortunate accident".


In that case I think the clothing retailiers of Australia - particularly Brisbane - are perfectly safe.

Yeah it was great. Food was excellent as well . Thanks Nabil for organising .


I'll be in Sydney in the next couple of weeks with the Mrs so you'd recommend Nomad for a feed?

Read a review of Temporada in Canberra yesterday looks like a good food and drink menu anyone here eaten there yet?

Nomad will definitely get its hat this Oct/Nov. So get in before they bump everything up because of the hype.

You'll find it warm, cosy and intimate. The perfect place for a good meal with the Mrs.

The food is hearty, wholesome and well executed. The Churros, Wagyu Skirt, Lamb and Calamari with squid ink are all the go-to dishes.

Wine by the bottle is very reasonable ($50) - we had a Pinot Gris from Tasmania (!!!!) which was soft and subtle.

I've got a BNWT Patrik Ervell tee in M in the ocean print from SS14. Bought it thinking it might suit me, it doesn't. I'll never wear it and I can't return it back to Hypebeast so I'll sell it reasonably cheap. $145 shipped, images can be seen at https://www.patrikervell.com/product/detail/pass/1716



Apologies if I come across as a bit sarcastic (which I don't mean to be), but the following parts of the above post don't really compute:

"tee (shirt)", "reasonably cheap", "$145".

Do you think it will be a good place to have a family dinner of 7? Looking for something that isn't (too) loud.

Hope there will be another Syd catch-up in the near future so I can attend :)

Need a new casual jumper one with some versatility colour wise http://www.sportscraft.com.au/Merin...hing-knits,default,sc.html=undefined&start=10

thinking to match it with navy kahaki green corduroy and jeans thoughts?

Also the fact it would probably fit under a pea coat but aside from early morning and nights winter has gone walkabout here in Canberra probably left town when it saw the Budget papers.
I don't know about khaki green with that colour. You might be better off with a navy blue, or a beige.

And as for winters, Sydney's never really arrived; am wearing tropical wool today FTW.

A table of seven is always going to find it hard to have group conversation - unless the table is round and you're the only ones in the restaurant. You'll have to play musical chairs, which is fun, in my opinion.

Nomad would be good, definitely, so would Porteno in Cleveland street. Porteno has a higher ceiling so noise tends to reverberate, but that's just being picky. Both have good salads, so you can cater for your entire family.

You're looking at about $60-$80 per head for food. Good food.
