We had dinner for 6 people on a Wednesday night. This is the first time we had eaten here and it was really lovely. A huge range of dishes to choose from. I would recommend anyone to go here, service was friendly and the food was very nice.

I have been with Aussie Farmers Direct off and on for a few years now. It started when a rep from AFD came around to offer their services and that our local primary school would benefit from a donation from them if I signed up (ring them to get this for your school also). I was very happy with them for a while and used to get carried away with what was on offer, I only stopped when the supermarkets started the $1/ltr milk special to save money and to support our local monthly farmers market. I am back with them to order essentials, milk (as I couldn't keep up with the demand from my family) and bread mainly. Make sure you check off your order when it's delivered as once in a while something may get left off or the wrong size sent, eg. cheese but a phone call to them rectifies things without drama.
Their range has increased since I was last using them about 8 months-1 year ago and looks fantastic.
Just gotta remember to put the esky out the night before delivery otherwise it gets left in the morning sun! Once that happens you don't forget again. (Sometimes they'll lend you one of theirs if they have a spare if you've forgotten which is good.)
Love the idea of helping our farmers and supporting small businesses.

Went to this butcher after reading the WOMO review. I would be very happy to come back to this butcher again. Old fashioned service, even helped me carry my purchase to the car. Would recommend to anyone. (PS. I'm a tough reviewer and don't give away my ratings easily.)

I've been getting Emma to cut my hair for a few years now (she's recently come back from overseas) and always done a good job on my hair and listened to what I wanted.

Approximate cost: $170 (cut, colour (foils), blow-wave)

I have been seeing Dr. Albert Tsai now for about 2-3 months for a tendinitis/tennis elbow problem I've had for the last few years. I was recommended to see him after a chance encounter with a lady in a shop who had the same problem (and she too was recommended to Albert). I did not want to take pain killers for the rest of my life and wanted to try a natural approach. The difference is amazing, I'm now able to lift things that I couldn't do before without considerable pain. My husband is now seeing him for knee problems that top physio's haven't been able to relieve. After 2 sessions with Albert he is already starting to find some relief.
I can't recommend him enough.
I am also able to claim his costs on my health insurance.

Approximate cost: $85.00

I was impressed. I've tried a few fish & chipperies in the Blackburn area and have been let down (at one place we got food poisoning!). After reading reviews on this website about Kerrimuir Fish Shop I thought I'd try it and I was pleased I did. We had the fish, chips, pineapple & banana fritters - they were great. This will be our new local fish & chip shop.
