We loved Trinidad. Beautiful old town. Years ago now but remember going to a club in a huge, dilapidated old building filled with local youth. Lots of fun. There was also some sort of street festival going on with music and dancing up the stone streets. Didn't seem like it was a tourist thing (there were very few tourists around when we were there), which made it all the more special. Must convince the wife to go back...

RGPC by a mile

Damn, some fine looking steaks.

I was lucky to stop in KL for a few days a couple of years ago. Loved it. Had some great food on Jalan Alor (prob one of the most touristy spots?) and the standout was some stingray. Cooked very simply, but was to die for. Can't wait to get back - miss the smell of durian!

Glenlivet 12. Nothing fancy, but this stuff is a steal.

Really nice RGPC. First smoke in a while and loving it.

Could not have said it better myself. Carn the Hawks!

I picked up a bottle last week. Much like the 10yo but with the expected sweetness from the px. I prefer the 10 and the qc, but nice for a change of pace. What did you think of it ken?

I haven't cracked my box of Montecarlos yet. But for me the panatelas are a solid smoke but pretty one dimensional. Hoping the Montecarlos offer a bit more...

1080 AUD

Oh and for pasta, it has to be Pecorino Romano

Comte and cambozola

Ying Thai 2 near the corner of Lygon and Queensberry is really good if you want a break from Italian. And you're so close to the European, one of Melbourne's institutions! And then you can head up to Siglo afterwards for a cigar

No worries at all mate. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Cheers Wil

Looks great. Thanks for the tip. Some great rums on their menu http://www.rumdiarybar.com.au Would be interested to see their cigar menu.

I use Kiwi knives. They work pretty well and can be replaced for a few bucks!

I heard an interesting interview with an aviation consultant on the radio this morning. He discussed the risk assessments they undertake when they prepare their flight plans. He claimed that most other airlines weren't using that route due to the situation in Ukraine.

RGPC x 5 If they only had one in stock I'd pick up any of: HUHC Party shorts PLPC Boli PC

I use a an empty half bottle (375ml) with a screw top. Pour the wine you're not going to drink straight in, screw the lid and throw it in the fridge. This minimises the wine's contact with oxygen (hence reducing oxidation). Someone suggested Grolsch swing top bottles as another good alternative.

I much prefer the HC to the PC. I like the size too.
