yep brilliant, got to wonder why Aussie Rules hasn't had someone do the same yet, still too macho of an environment?

I couldn’t get near the joint, had to park out the front of Vili’s. I Enter the shop & there are 18 people eating/waiting for their order. In the 8 mins I waited another 23 people came in and ordered. The place was heaving.
Grab my order & almost break into a run back to the van in anticipation. I am not let down. These are THE BEST CHIPS I have ever had - period. Crunchy on the outside, fluffy in the middle - cooked to perfection. The hot dog I had was spot on too. Got halfway through the chips & felt full, finished them anyway. My mouth loves me, my guts hates me. Food coma ominous. Worth it.

How was the 1.25litre of coke that you washed the 12inch hotdog and $10 of chips down with?

Yep, imho nothing comes close. Chicken Shop opposite Barnacle Bills at Woodville used to have exact same type but a few years back changed them (to a run of the mill variety most places have). I've never recovered from it.


Wasn’t that the original chicken chef shop?
I’m going back 20 + years


Yeah they were part of the same group, but the Woodville one eventually changed name to Chicken Plaza I think, because they said the other mob wanted too much money for them to use the name. Kept menu items and chips exactly the same though. Completely different owners bought the place a few years back now.

Back in the 1970s, or there about, there was a guy who played half-forward flank for Norwood and who was openly gay. He wore one earing and was sometimes referred to as "Mr Tan" in the media because he obviously tended to go to tanning salons.
Not a bad player either...

I just can't pull up his name from my memory.

He hasn't really been hiding it (not that there's anything wrong with it)
