Drivers of Sydney, Beware


Because on Thursday I got my Ps! It only took me six years. Did you know you aren't allowed to smile AT ALL in your licence photo now? It has something to do with their facial recognition software.


That night I had dinner at Thai Top North in Sans Souci or maybe Ramsgate.


James had a LivingSocial voucher - for $19 we got a mixed entree, chicken pad see ew, a chilli jam stir fry with seafood (which fortunately turned out to be real seafood, not seafood extender), plus rice, and a pink lemonade for me. We also took champagne and they didn't charge us corkage! Score!






All the food was really tasty. The prices were reasonable too and the service was pretty quick. I don't think I'll go back soon because it's a bit far away just for Thai (especially considering my own local Thai is absolutely outstanding) but I'd definitely recommend Thai Top North to my friends who live closer to it, it is an awesome little local Thai.




To eat this delicious meal I wore a black top with silver trim, black and silver shoes (Myer, $14) and a silver glomesh bag (Vincenzo's, $4). Can you tell I love matching?







After I got home I started reading The Hunger Games. It's awesome and kept me up for hours but more on that later.

    1. Aw, if I'd known I would have popped in to bother you while you were working! Oh well, next time.

  2. I am glad the service was pretty quick. Last time I went there it took them an hour just to bring water to our table and then ask for our order. Put me off going back. But to be fair this was many years ago. Since you've given it such a good review I might have to give it another try! I am pretty loyal to another local Thai in Ramsgate though and then I have a second-fave (there are roughly one million Thai restaurants in Sans/Rams).

    1. To me Thai restaurant are bad, regular, really good, or exceptional. I'd say Thai Top North was in the really good category. So depending how good your favourites are it might not be better, but in any case probably worth a try, it was hardly expensive.

      The staff were pretty attentive, definitely didn't forget to take our order! They did fail to notice when a certain someone knocked a full glass of water on to me though.

  3. The picture of that bag looks cool. It kind of looks like there's a picture of something made out of the differently angled glo mesh panels.

    I think they should make bags that look like that on purpose.

    1. You're right - I think it looks like a bit like a witch's hat (or Sorting Hat?) at an angle. Oh glomesh, is there anything it can't do?
