Sydney Aquarium


Massive lobster climbing over an even bigger crab (can’t help but crave seafood every time I visit the aquarium lol).


Grumpy stonefish.


Massive fan of the jelly tank (Tank nightclub needs to install one of these in their club!).


Stunning, right?


Got a massive shock when I spotted Mr Dugong! I love dugongs!!!


Sawfish.


Underwater garden.


Anemones.


Banner fish, just chillin, white tip sharks sleepin.


The gift shop on exit got us! Nana and her new friend ‘Squishy’.


Yup… ALWAYS end up getting seafood after a visit. HAHA.


Of-course Squishy joined us too.

I’m always critical (having had many aquariums myself) but it’s always fun visiting the Sydney Aquarium. Best surprise was the dugong! I love dugongs!

JDMST EOMM x TL-D x Garage 88 Grand Opening


RPRSNT!


Garage 88 FD Civic.


Steak sandwich was next level!


Candy store.

Yesterday I made the call to not run the Zen Garage stall at the JDMST EOMM today. I’ve been feeling a bit run down (can’t afford to get the flu!) and I just wanted, for a change, to just enjoy the meet. Turn up late, check out the cars, talk to a few people and leave early.

Perfect weather today and despite double demerits the troops came out in force. I’m pretty sure everyone present was impressed with new shop Garage 88, both the premises as well as the well organised day. Food served was next level and tunes were great too.

What many missed out on was a shop tour. It’s seriously JDM heaven up there and I felt like a kid in a candy store! I snapped a few shots of the shop (which is still a work in progress). Many more pics here.

Dent Hero dent removal day @ Zen Garage


The Dent Hero.

Dent removal day @ Zen was epic yesterday! The quality of the work done by the technician on the day was otherworldly. His nickname in the industry is ‘Dent God’ – He’s travelled to Europe and the United States to repair hail damaged cars ranging from Audi R8′s, Maybachs, Ferraris etc. The guy had an aura about him, he was like Bruce Lee. Was an absolute privilege to watch him work, nothing better than watching someone who mastered their craft.

Check out all the photos here.

Web/Digital Industry Meeting @ Shillington College


This morning I was invited to discuss the industry and web/digital design issues at Shillington College.

The meeting focussed on the industry’s current state, expectations of junior graphic designers as well as content that they should be teaching students. There was a group of us, a mixture of teachers and industry representatives which made for some great chatter, and lots of great opinions as well as ideas.

Sushi Yachiyo


Love it. A hole in the wall, basically!


The menu – there was SO much to choose from. Too much! Will have to go back to try the lot.


Our waiter was very friendly, and very much into his sake. He brought out these 3 massive sake bottles and let us try all 3. We went for the one in the middle “enyu”. Beautiful stuff.


Sushi Yachiyo picks the best seafood from the fish markets daily, so we couldn’t go past the sushi and sashimi plate. It was amazing!


Nana ordered this Nabe Hotpot, what a wow dish! Served over a flame in paper! Yup, that’s basically a seafood udon noodle soup in a paper basket, lovely.

Nana’s Mum has been haunting a little sushi joint called Sushi Yachiyo for some time. Last night we both had a sushi craving so we thought we’d give it a go. It’s tiny, you have to book but we got there at 6PM sharp and luckily scored a table. The staff and food were awesome. What I didn’t get a picture of was the deep fried deep cheeks, damn those things were so good (melt in your mouth material!) that they were demolished way before the camera could focus.
