If you enjoy food, you might enjoy a copy of new food media production Scrag End. It’s a journal that’s focussed on divulging the stories beyond the plates by going further than offering photos and recipes.

Post WTAC Blues

Posted on 24 October, 2013 by Justin Fox


Aleks checking out the new Speedhunters book (which is so high res it’s like viewing images on a screen!).


With WTAC over, the original plan was to go snorkelling at Clovelly Beach but Creative Director of Speedhunters Rod Chong desperately wanted Yum Cha, which he says is not available in Stockholm, so we happily obliged!


Sebastian Dalle Carbonare. Our very own Seb Voll is a massive Dino fan so we thought we’d put Dino’s signature white frames on him haha.


After dropping Rod off to the airport we decided to walk down to the rock pool at the end of my street.


Had a dip, so refreshing. Really needed it!


We then feasted at Churrasco Coogee Beach. Always satisfying!


Coogee Beach, then goodbyes to Dino who’s now back home in Japan.

Post WTAC hangs

Posted on 20 October, 2013 by Justin Fox

Spent the day hanging out with our WTAC guests today. Rad day out! I’ve only just gotten home. I’m exhausted!


Hey Ved! First stop; Deus for brunch and some drinks to celebrate.


Carby Tuckwell’s amazing work. He was a mentor of mine when I did my internship at a company called Bold (which he shared office space in) during design school.


Great minds think alike! We ran into Ian Baker, the man behind WTAC and his mate Michael who manages race car drivers (including F1!).


Anton and Serg. More drinks yayer!


Hailey and Adam.


Boston Beans.


Hey Krysti!


Made a quick stop off at Zen to unload some stock which was in the boot of my car. Hailey got acquainted with Frankie our pet snake.


We then headed to the Opera Bar.


Tourist!


Luke, Adam and I found it a little too hot under the sun so we ducked in to the MCA to check out some art.


I always love checking out the key to the Opera House.


We’d been watching this crow try to crack open a nut for about 5 minutes, then Hails decided to crack it open for him, what a gal!


Food, and more drinks!


Luke and Inessa who’s a Playboy Bunny and Rally Driver from Russia.


From Russia with Love. Inessa gave me a packet of her smokes haha.


Inessa and I.


Then we had a private viewing of Rush at the Dendy (pretty much as we were the only people in there!) with Mad Mike, Rod, Dino and Brad from Speedhunters. Movie killed me, so emotional. I absolutely loved it.


Mad Mike and Inessa.

Xangpuak Lao & Thai Restaurant

Posted on 6 October, 2013 by Justin Fox

Last night Alain invited us to the grand opening of his new restaurant Xangpuak in Green Valley. I’m not a huge fan of travelling out west, but there was no way I was going to miss out on this!

The restaurant was full, the staff (Alain’s whole family) were beautiful. Food came out so fast and it was all mindblowingly amazing. So good I went back again tonight! Tonight I ordered a Pad Thai, massive test right? But damn the Pad Thai blew minds, we smashed it and had to order another one.

So proud of Alain, who was working hard tonight and last night. So jealous that he’s been eating this amazing food at home ever since he was a kid, but hey so happy he’s now sharing! I’m planning on being a regular, as there’s SO much more food on the menu I have yet to try!


Love the logo.


Alain, who was so professional (lol). So strange to be waited on by him!


Prawn entree was delicious.


Satay sauce was so good.


If you love ox tongue, you’ve got to order this off the char grill. Delicious!


Don’t order boiled rice, instead order the sticky rice which you can eat with your hands. Awesome.


Beef Salad was so fresh.


You must order the pork. Taste explosion!


Pow Pow Pow! Char Grilled Chicken had so much flavour.


Alain’s dish! The salmon salad had me sweating, but it’s damn amazing and was a favourite of many.


Lart Nah is a dish I always look for on a Thai menu, and it’s never there. SO excited when I saw it on the menu at Xangpuak. So excited to try all the other traditional dishes on the menu.


I was way too stuffed for dessert but I stole some of Krysti’s and gahhhhh, my gawd. Crispy pastry instead of that doughy stuff you usually find on friend ice cream? Genius!

Raise the Sun Fundraising Party @ Zen Garage

Posted on 1 June, 2013 by Justin Fox


Quality Coffee.


That home-brew vibe.


Hearty food!


50+ bikes descend on Zen Garage.


Popo showed up.


Hey Lassie!


YOLO!


The crowd inside.

To help get Rising Sun Workshop off the ground we hosted a fundraising event at Zen Garage. The event brought the Sydney 2 wheeled community together for a ride, followed by quality Single Origin coffee, hearty food, beers, live bands, a raffle, a live Auction and even a burlesque show!

Loved having these guys over at the garage. Such a different crowd to what we’re used to, but that familiar great vibe. I took a few more photos on Zen.

Mexico

Posted on 22 April, 2013 by Justin Fox


From the outside.


I asked for something completely different to the crispy beers I usually drink. I got it.


Fried Chicken was delicious.


Soft Shell Tacos were yummy too.

Caught up with Felix and Di last Saturday night (been way too long!). We dined at Mexico in Surry Hills. Food and atmosphere were great, company was even better!
