Had our wedding there. Exceptional venue and food but service had room for improvement. The events coordinator was hard to get in touch with and on the day had trouble with the seating arrangements and our wedding date was printed wrong. We also paid for the drinks package but the drinks had to be ordered instead of being on the table so guests did drink up.

Approximate cost: $120

Ordered my wedding flowers and bonbonierre tags from them. Chrisa is helpful, gives good advice on colours and type of flower that will last the day.

Can do any makeup or hairstyle of your choice and uses mineral makeup and cruelty free products. My hair and makeup stayed on all night and I was really happy with her service after trying 4 other makeup artists.

I have Angelo cut my hair every time and is careful not to use damaging techniques like razoring on your hair. When layering hair, he will straighten it and texturise it further. My hair is really thick but he is able to tidy it without performing any shortcuts like other hairdressers I have been to.

Gorgeous chocolate shop where you can handselect chocolates and enjoy a decadent hot chocolate - italian or danish style. The attendant was quick to clean up the table for us and was extremely friendly.

Approximate cost: $4

Doesnt take along for them to be on a first name basis with the customer. Food is always fresh and sandwiches and muffins are delicious. The coffee is the best in Melbourne.

Approximate cost: $8.00

Chocolate lovers must try this place. It has beautiful atmosphere with a great selection of belgian chocolates and menu delights. I tried the belgian waffles with chocolate sauce and icecream, the baci hot chocolate with real hazelnut grains and a selection of assorted chocolates. My opinion? Great potential but for what could have been a great experience became average one due to the fact that I dont think the waffles are made on the premise and the ones they served tasted a bit stale and little underheated. The icecream was also pre-frozen and was quite icy, definitely not premium vanilla icecream but tasted like ice confectionary. However, the hot chocolate was yummy, very fragrant and strong hazelnut taste and there were about 10 different hot chocolates to choose from. The only technicality I will pick on is that the menu said 'italian hot choc' and for those of you who have tried the stuff know that it is very thick. This was just like a normal hot chocolate but yes it was delicious. My partner had a cappucino and was not happy with it.

The assorted chocolate selection was nice but nothing spectacular given that it was belgian. Although I will admit the choc hazlenut crisp was my favourite (shaped like a seashell)

Apart from that the service was a bit slow but friendly. They had one person on a Sunday lunch hour.

The best vietnamese pork rolls in Victoria! I always order the hot chicken and pork rolls with lots of carrot, coriander, spring onion, and chilli however you can customise it as you please.

I have never had an issue with food poisoning here but I do believe it got some bad press over the years from people who didn't eat the rolls immediately and left them out in warm temperatures.

Approximate cost: $I think they are around $4 each

I attend most of the aerobics classes including Body Pump, Attack, Step and Pilates and the instructors inspire you to do your best. They are always professional, friendly and passionate about their role as an instructor.

The busiest classes are around 630 and 730 but the same classes are also available at 530 or 830 on different days.

The gym has plenty of modern equipment and there are tvs on view for those who like to watch while exercising, otherwise there is music always in the background.

I don't use much of the swimming facilities but have before and can recommend them too.

Locker facilities use a keypad lock so no need to keep a key with you which is handy especially if you are swimming. There are also childminding facilities and kiosk. Outdoor pool and water slide is also available.

Approximate cost: $7 class but unlimited classes and use of gym if you are member

Great dining experience everytime! You are welcomed almost immediately and shown to your table at the busy the restaurant. Servings are extremely generous - expect to share an entree sized pasta dish and the gelato for $6 looks like the tower of pisa! My favourite dishes are the apollo funghi and cabonara and the sofia special is also a good one. They also have a seafood platter for $20.
