Good Time Travel Services have really great deals on domestic and overseas tours. We bought flight tickets to NZ with them and our family also joined a tour via them going to NZ North Island for 4 days. All booking and payments of the flight tickets and tours were all done via phone and emails, thus very efficient as we didn't have the time to go to the shop front many times. They responded to our queries very quickly and forwarded the e-tickets and other documents straight away once paid. The itinerary was fully packed, went to as many places as the tour's timing possibly could. Tour prices were reasonably cheap. Tour guide was very friendly and professional, especially the local guide has full knowledge and could speak like 3 languages. However, meals (except for breakfast) were not included in the package so we needed to pay for our own meals during the trip. Timing was abit tight and things were quite rushed but was as expected.

My colleagues and I love getting our morning coffee from Piccolo Me first thing in the morning. They have really nice and strong coffee which wakes me up. I love getting the soy mocha from them. They have an extensive range of sandwiches, wraps as well that are available. Love sitting around the café while waiting for my coffee as they have cute little chess and other games lying around. Super friendly and chatty staff whom brightens up my day. They used to give away free coffee when you "like" them on Facebook.
 

We hired a hi-ace van for moving home from Orana. Came across it when looking for van hire online and then booked it for a weekend straight away. Price is quite competitive. Van available to be picked up on time in great condition. Staff was very friendly in quickly explaining the details and going through the paperwork and basics. We returned the van a little bit late because of the traffic jam, but they didn't charge us any late payment or surcharge for returning the van late. Will definitely be hiring from them again!

I have a few relatives who came from overseas to visit us for an occasion and since our home is abit small to fit 6 relatives, we have to book 2 rooms to cater for everyone at the West Ryde Comfort Inn which is close to our home. I stayed with my cousins for a few night so we could catchup. We have no trouble booking the rooms which were reasonably priced, and the rooms are very tidy and clean, includes almost everything that you would need for a weeks' stay. The rooms aren't too huge, but can fit 3 people in 1 room comfortably. Very quiet area with lots of trees. The staff were very efficient in getting the things we requested into our room. Lots of parking space available also.

Approximate cost: $120

Our family bought flight tickets and tour to China Yunan via CBT Holidays. It was a hassle free transaction and settlement. Responses were provided promptly, all queries of the tour details answered. The travel agent, Katherine, was very professional, efficient and friendly. We didn't need to go out to the shop in person. Everything was done through the phone, email and payment via net. We needed to make changes to our flight dates in the last minute due to some circumstances, and Katherine kindly rearranged everything for us. Highly recommended travel agent.

I went to Tommy's Beer café with a few friends for dinner on a weekend. The place wasn't full and we got a table straight away and we didn't make a booking. Staff were super friendly and enthusiastic to serve us. They wore traditional costumes which was really good. We ordered a 1m long sausage to share, which was delicious and we had fun sharing. Everyone was taking a photo with the sausage! We also ordered pork knuckle, hagarian goulash and salads to share. The dishes were very tasty. Everyone ordered a traditional beer as well and the size was huge. We had a buy-1-get-1-free coupon, and we shared the total bill at the end which was a great deal.

My relatives came to Sydney from overseas. I took them to the Sydney Aquarium for half a day and they loved it, especially the kids. They have a little pool section where we get to dip our hands into the water and hold the star fish etc. and the tunnel which we get can through was amazing, seeing the gigantic sharks swimming above us. I love the polar bear which is so white and fluffy, it was so close right next to the clear window which we feel so close to it. Highly recommended place for a fun day out.

My husband took me there for lunch celebrating Valentine's Day. We ordered the Willoughby set, which has abit of everything; and we also ordered some scampi fish roe, sashimi on top. The soft shell crab roll was delicious and the Wagyu sirloin steak was very tender and juicy, it melted in our mouths. They have an extensive range of sake as well which my husband loves. Everything is fresh. Prices are very reasonable.

Went to Hotel CBD after work for Friday drinks with colleagues. Great atmosphere with lots of people. Very packed and not enough space to stand around. Prices of the drinks are reasonable, not too expensive at all, so it wasn't too bad shouting a few rounds of drinks. Staff were chatty and efficient. Convenient location for meeting up so I will be back again.

We had our weekend family dinner at Wokking Inn on a Saturday night, the place is fully seated. We waited for around 20 minutes which wasn't too bad. Food was served very quickly as soon as we placed order. The salt and pepper squid tastes delicious and creamed corn fried fish was nice too. Seating wasn't too comfortable as the place is quite small. The couple which are the owners of the restaurant are friendly and gave us some prawn crackers for free as we waited around for the table.
