Mercury is good. It's tucked away behind the RE opposite the Woolies carpark. But it's kinda fancy restaurant so u want to be eating with someone...
There's also a REALLY CHEAP but good chinese joint. It's on the other side of the road from the 7-11. Can't remember what it's called. Then there's coffee club on the corner... And sush train below blockbuster, but i dunno if that's open for dinner? or Sizzler!@!! |

hahaha rofl i was gonna say that, I am sure JMR is a wizz in the kitchen, in fact i heard he does a "wicked" scrambled eggs? Dont ask me where.
Kat, home cooked meals are all good and healthy/cheap, but when you get dished up plane old snag and veg, it starts to get very boring. I love a good curry or a good pasta. My fav curry is butter chicken of course, however i like all of them. As for italian, nothing beats a good ravioli |

Tiny, hahaha the other half always wants snags, veg and rice.... blerghh... 4 years later and he can't shake his bachelor habits.
There are plenty of meals you can make quickly and easily. Casserole with mash, took me 5 mins of preperation and just an hour of waiting *waits* :( |

So put a few points in your cooking skill when you next level, get a few cooking recipies from the corpses of your last hunt and you too could cook up a storm. Cooking is such an awsome and useful skill to have, you would be mad not to have it. You can even specialise your skillz. Up your cooking skill level then put a few points into deserts. P.S. Roasts are EASY to cook, almost fire and forget. When you have lvl 2 or 3 cooking skill you can mod your roast with spices and herbs and other bits of goodness. GF Happy = home cooked meal * quality. Just make sure your quality is positive. Then for added effect clear the table, jam a few candles on it, pop open a bottle of wine and you figure out the rest. And we all know what Happy GF's do ;D OR you could go and spend $20 on some random bit of effortleses takeout and score minor points with the misses and go home wishing you cooked up a storm :D |

Yer I have to constantly fight back the dirty horde doing raids in my fridge, gets a bit messy when you have heaps of merlocks too, allthough the merloks give me recipies that can cook. Sometimes I have to go outside and drive to the auction house to buy some ingrediants and reagents. Going on Thursday nights gets a bit laggy tho.. |

sifnt just cook your own thing, i love cooking, things a little bit less boring than casserole though.. sheeesh.. i make up mini pizzas, healthy styles, little cheese, tomatos, mushroom, fetta cheese, basil, olives that sort of thing jamie oliver stylez
then i made up a special paste and pasted it over beef and bacon skewers with capsicum mushrooms and onion one night.. then there's always buying precooked chicken that you just chuck in the oven and having it with some honey and butter drizzled vegies. |

Dude, you totally missed out on Super Chicken and your daily dose of e.coli.
But yeah, A Night in India is good stuff along with Sushi Train (although you're better off waiting until the $2 sushi day). |

arrivederci's is the place at milton i think, they do metre pizza's and aparrently they have some wicked corona deals on friday nights, my bro used to frequent when he was underage so they're obviously very ethical little italians
had a wicked steak on park rd too, hairy lemon i think its called mav - if you make your own dough, have you got a recipe you'd recommend ? |

Go to coles and buy:
3 chorizos jar of sundried tomatoes block of halloumi cheese bamboo skewers a whole piece of fennel a handful of good quality kalamata olives a couple of oranges. cut the chorizos and cheese into 2cm or so long pieces. Put them and the tomatoes on the skewers ( chorizo, tomato, cheese, chorizo, tomato cheese ). Put these on BBQ or under grill turning occasionally. While they are cooking chop up the fennel root into smallish chunks, put into a salad bowl with olives and the zest of half an orange ( make sure you only get the orange part of the skin not the white ). Toss the salad and use juice squeezed from the oranges as a dressing and sprinkle fennel leaves over the top. Nice and simple to cook and an excellent combination of flavours... |
