I’ve had the Barramundi BTC out of SYD in J a couple of years back.

Back then it was served with jasmine rice, I see as of now it’s been changed to fried rice which I would’ve preferred. But the actual fish itself, that was good, and the Chinese black bean sauce compliments it nicely as well - I would recommend this dish, but Beef Cheek sounds good too.

Facing the same dilemma - barra with black bean (in which case, I'd stick on the champagne), or beef check (in which case, the Bordeaux would get a run - it's the 08 Pichon Longueville, which IIRC is also served in TPR?)

CE's photo a few pages ago show the '05 in the TPR vs the '08 onboard - the TPR also has The Bogan but a '15 vs the younger vintage onboard

PM sent.

Also, I realised my mathing wasn't mathing before. F Savers seem to be being released 29 days out, not 30. They seem to mainly be being released on Mondays to Thursdays, and only if there is Advantage availability in the lead-up to the 29 day mark.
