I find the hot chocolate here is moderate. But what they lack in hot chocolate, they make up in waffles. The waffles are amazing and yummy. My girlfriend loves the strawberry waffles with chocolate in them. Other than that, I think the location is the best. It's right smack in the best part of the city - melbourne central! It's a great place to hang out, and is frequently packed.
The hot chocolate at this branch is the best so far. I've tried some different chocolate shops like max brenners in the city, but this particular branch of san churros provides a really thick cup of hot chocolate. I wouldn't mind going back just for one. Works well in winter when all you can think about is nice warm hot chocolate whilst it's freezing outside.
I frequently visit Victoria Market during the weekends to stock up on food for the week. They have competitive prices (even more than Woolworths!). I also note that the best time to get is around lunchtime. The reason for this is more stores are closing up and there are lots of specials waiting for grabs. As food is a perishable item, they need to sell it out completely. Other than that, there's also heaps of goods such as jackets, souveniers, clothes, etc on the other end of VicMart. Note: You may also bargain with some of the shop owners to get even more discount.
This is a great site - not just for the freebies but for specials as well. I visit this site daily and have it listed in my RSS feed. It shows all the specials/discounts for a large variety of categories ranging from gaming, to kitchen, to clothes. The site is clean, and being moderated, almost always shows good deals all through. I would heavily recommend it.
I think this is one of the best sites to purchase games. This site has more than just games, but I've been using this consistently to purchase PS3 games that are way cheaper than EBGames or JBHiFi. The shipping cost on this site is good at under 2 GBP, and with the strong Australian currency, the prices are much more competitive. Note: Prices may change depending on currency.
Approximate cost: $30
The JB hifi online store is one of the best ideas! I am able to go online and check prices and discounts. Site is relatively friendly and easy to navigate.
In my opinion, I think this is a great store - it has a large variety of games, for consoles such as PS3, PC, and xbox. In terms of value, I think it's good but as a deal finder, I'm able to get cheaper prices online.
Approximate cost: $40
Food dishes were good.
Food that were recommended were Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Tom Yum (very authentic) and their selection of curries.
Approximate cost: $12
