If your driving down from brissy you could come down via the old pacific or down via Wisemans ferry & come into sydney via Galston Gorge

Service wasn't too bad either. I think it might have taken a big longer than your usual wait for the food but it was damn good. It was packed so understandable. http://pancakesontherocks.com.au/home It seems there is one opening on the Gold Coast soon too I'm hungry just looking at the website lol. OO lunch time Edit: I'm pretty sure I had them put cream on the pancakes too haha

I can vouch that the Pancakes are worth lining up for. Yes, the service is slow during peak times but you go there to eat not make friends with the waiter. Anyway.. We have similar testes Fev, my standard meal is the chocolate pancakes (devils delight????) and the chicken caesar salad ;) Friday and Sat nights there is a line down the steps and onto the footpath, with an hr wait or more. There is a reason for this! ;) |

I'm a Sydney-sider. Candy's Apartment on Bayswater Road Darlinghurst is without a doubt my favourite club there. Also plenty of other clubs... Or strippos if that's what you prefer in the cross. There is King St Wharf or Cockle bay wharf if you prefer something a little more classy eg. Cargo Bar, Bungalow 8 etc. The Ivy at Wynyard is also ace if you wanna see Andrew O'keefe rolling around on the floor smashed... Just wear a suit or similar lol The Rocks is good for pubs/bars. The Argyle is a favorite, but dress nice. There is also Oxford St/Surry Hills area. Plenty of super trendy bars around there but be careful as you may end up in a club that does not match your interests!!

WSID is great. About 3 mins from where I work and some weeks when Im stressed out, I'll go there on a Wednesday arvo after work and come home a new man!!! Hahahahhaa!! Also, if you can manage to come down to Orange Grove on the last Saturday of the month. If weathers good, litlerly hundreds of cars!!!! Everything from Jap, old school 8s. Harleys etc. The place to be on a Saturday if you can!

Sounds good.
You'll also find in the NSW events, an event organised by Tony every couple of weeks at Orange Grove. Every second Friday or something like that. Meet and Greet. Ive been there for each one so far and its a good half a dozen that turns up for a yarn.
