It's Been a While...

Since i updated the blog last, and it has been due to work I just havent had the time to stop, i work go out drinking and then sleep and have repeated this god awful process more times in the last month than i can remember.

It involves knocking off work having 2-3 beers out the back whilst we wind down, then heading upstairs on the gaming floor to velvet bar. Coz its open 24hrs most days, cheap drinks and we can get 20+ people in there no probs. And they sell massive cocktails (get the toblerone :). So work has been really good even though there is just myself and one other on the section at the moment its all going well.

As we are shut sundays we have had a group of 8-10 everyweek we plan to goto a restaurant, and as saturday night ends up so big we are all hungover for lunctime and it just gets messier, the first week we went to pearl then last sunday we went to circa and this week we are still undecided but the week after we are going to goto the footy to show some of our interstate/international guests the great game that is AFL.

There are some more things id like to post about work, but one of the waiters found my blog whilst searching nobu melbourne lol. Hi ben! So id rather not knowing some i work with is reading.. never mind.

The Vic Champs are on and i wont be playing any events by the looks of it. But ill try and play some events during the PokerNews Cup.

The blog is def on its last legs and will be put to sleep shortly, hopefully i can still sell it to yoyo for $24! I just dont have the time nor the motivation to update it constantly.

Vlado's

Just remembered i had this photo on my phone, Vlado's is awesome and there is a huge chance ill be eating there again this weekend :D I was also quite happy at how easy it was to get some mustard to take home, especially after hearing about the story of emad wanting some mustard. But then again our waiter loved me :S

Update + Photo Dump

Sorry for the lack of updates ive just been really busy with work and couldn't be bothered to be honest.

Last two weeks have been freaking awesome, I'm loving every day of work and haven't been happier in my life.... I run so good :P.

On friday a bunch of us from work went for some drinks at The Pub @ Crown, which was good but it's over priced and too loud, have to find another after work boozer. It's great having so many passionate chef's @ work and their skills are beyond most I've worked with so i will be trying my best to learn a ton.

Then after work i went to matty's for some drink's and stillman arrived not long after me, then as usual the talk turned to somewhere to go for dinner, we decided on Vlado's we made the call and they could fit us in, We headed off for dinner The cabbie scared the shit out of me by the way he was driving in the rain, but i was too drunk to give a shit. As im talking about work he pop's in and start's telling me this great way to cook Quail, If we weren't on the way to a restaurant we would've been tilted because it sounded so good, Table was going to take 10mins so we headed to the pub across the road to the pub for another round before dinner.

Off to Vlado's we went, Now this was my first time and id heard alot about it. We started with a round of drinks and a bottle of red. And i was well on my way to shit faced and it wasn't even 9:00pm now a notable mention must goto the hottie with a huge rack who was exiting the restaurant as we walked in, Now in my state i probably made it quite clear i was staring at her rack but what can you do?

Anyway moving right along, The food was insane, its too hard to describe the taste when you eat it so i just recommend you all go there. The steak was by far the best steak i have ever eaten IN MY LIFE! neil perry can shove his $60 piece of charcoal up his ass, what full grown man has a ponytail anyway? FAG!

Obviously the luck didn't stop there because i received the best steak EVER! with matty nearing tilt at the better cut i received lol. Then we realise they have wagyu available but we have already had our steak but we decided to share a piece, shame it wasn't as good as the other meat. So then we decide to head back to matty's then head out to the Mahogany room :D

First time ever ive just rolled into mahogany with no probs. Such ballbreakers.

So we hit the bar, and numerous cocktails, cigars and other alcoholic beverages are consumed, One of my old high school mates Dad's was dealing the baccarat table we were at he first screwed it up but then shipped some luck.

By this time it was nearing 6am we decided to head back to matt's for more drinking. I just ended up passing out on the couch lol.

Other than that saturday was a quiet one. And today was spent watching my football team still lose matches.
