The Sushi Burger
It's true that the sushi roll doesn't need to be more convenient, which begs the question: Is the sushi burger a backwards step, or a challenge to burger joints around the world?
Between a seaweed-wrapped rice bun you will find fillings such as Hamburg (steak), Vegetable Tempura, Yakiniku (grilled beef), Ebi mayo, Kano croquette, Teriyaki eel, and Teriyaki chicken laced with a special sauce and Japanese mayo (see diagram).
MASH SF – Australian Premiere
Past. Present. Future.
As a myriad reflection of track heritage and contemporary style MASH SF rider James Newman also believes that riding fixed can “make you look into the future. Since you can’t stop as fast, you have to plan ahead”.
Cavalier or clairvoyant, MASH SF – a film by Gabe Morford and Mike Martin, watch the trailer here – creates the sense that this elite group of San Franciscan riders navigate using the palms and not the backs of their hands.
Daft Punk is Screening at our House
Daft Punk are soon to land and their meteoric and enigmatic nature makes this akin to the passing of Halley's Comet. However, in the lead up, rather than looking up at the sky we recommend that you look up at the screen.
Presented by Modular and Beck's, Daft Punk is Screening at our House is a two-night film festival that will showcase cult features Interstella 5555 and Electroma as well as the film-clips from Homework and Human After All.
The Ashcombe Hedge Maze
For the knowledgeable urban dweller the art of being lost has all but disappeared. Like cultural assassins, we know exactly what is around every corner and, before entering, our escape has already been planned. Efficiency has become key, but the fun more difficult to find.
About an hour and a half out of Melbourne the Ashcombe Hedge Maze is a place for those who are prepared to look stupid, look at their friends looking stupid and generally admit that they actually have no idea which way to go.
Warren Miller’s Off The Grid
Does THIS fill you with awe? Does THIS make you laugh? And do you not want to end up doing THIS this winter?
Well, if you answered YES to all three questions then we suggest you go to Warren Miller’s Off The Grid.‘The Grid’ is a metaphor for the boundaries and routines of everyday life and being off it means that you are either an extreme skier,clinically insane, or quite possibly, both.
The Little Tuckerbox
At some time or another we’ve all had that crazy notion that it’s much cheaper to make your own lunch. It’s not. By the time you buy everything for your sandwich, make it, transport it, you’ve lost about 5 years of your life, you’re down $20 and your bag smells.
What we’re trying to tell you here is that you should leave it to the experts.
NowNow Gallery - quiet please
