Was back at OT last Wed nt for a bucks night - Emilio had the Wagyu eye fillet on again - $44 for 400g of the best steak I have had in my life is an absolute bargain - whoever books this night just ask Sonia b4hand if dad has any of the Wagyu eye fillet to offer on the night - don’t miss it.

[PushBack]

As we rapidly approach the end of another financial year filled with credit card points earned through the enjoyment of good food and wine, and occasional infrequent travel inside metal tubes, it's time to come together as a group and celebrate our passions.

Dinner
8pm, Saturday 23 June 2018
The Olive Tree, 19 Park St, South Melbourne VIC 3205

The restaurant is BYO, so bringing a nice bottle to share is encouraged, otherwise they do have a capable and well priced wine list.

Please bring adequate cash to assist with bill splitting.

Great idea, planning to come with PushBack.

 

[penegal]

Welcome to AFF @PushBack , do you mean there is one or two of you planning to attend?

It'll be PushBack and Waypoint. PB is new, WP just rejoined to ditch the silly name he had before! We'll try and get to our profiles with more info asap.

 

[Aeolus]

Unfortunately bronze as I'm flying out on Thu. Sorry to hijack this thread but if anyone is keen, I'm planning to do a quick dinner at the thai place behind DT at Flinders Ln tomorrow night.

 

[Cruiser Elite]

I should mention Lamb Shank on special last week also - shanks so big they looked like they came of rhineoceruses - couple of the boys had them and described them as ‘coughic’!

 

[penegal]

Ok folks - I think it's time to book so they know we are coming (and can plan accordingly).

Any update on attendance BC/TV?
Any lurkers keen to attend?

[TomVexille]

Sorry @penegal, I literally won't know until I leave site in Sale Saturday

 

[whughes3]

I may be able to make it but unhappily I am currently in a slightly injured state (metacarpal fractures) from my most recent trip; will see how I am feeling later in the week.

 

[potm]

I have another dinner event in the city on the same night but will pop by after. Going by past events, I suspect the party will still be going strong.

 

[Buzzard]

Unfortunately +1 and I are unable to attend. We will be in a vehicle in SA, Vic or NSW. Not sure which yet.

 

[QF WP]

You going to Murtho, @Buzzard ??

I'll have a quiet drink at home for you on Sat night, @penegal.
