A nice, newly established gym with great new equipment and a relaxed vibe. This gym is nice to use as it's been done out very well and doesn't feel packed to the brim with people which makes it a pleasure, particularly when taking classes. The work out areas are quite separate and unlike some other clubs, I appreciate that while I'm working out I can't hear the booming music and yelling from a class, they seem to be quite well separated. And they even have an iphone app for your class timetables!

The quality of clean at Florida dry cleaners is very good, but I found them quite expensive. To ensure that a treasured item is well cared for it would be worth the cost but probably not for every day items.

While I haven't visited the other bakeries in the chain, Sonoma Bakery at Five Ways is great. I am so partial to their Miche loaf, we've been known to spend a lazy afternoon with just a loaf of their bread and some good quality olive oil (and a glass of vino). Their almond pastries and muffins are also delish and I've had many a good coffee. There's not a lot of room to sit in, it does feel quite cramped but for takeaway it's fantastic.

I love the pizzas at love supreme - it's one of my favourite places to eat. It has a seasonal menu, which means that you can visit them consistently and while they do keep the standard faves, there's always something interesting and new to try. Their arancini are gorgeous as well and they have a surprisingly diverse and interesting wine list. For a very busy place, I always find their staff upbeat and attentive, I've rarely had bad service here. It's very relaxed and perfect for a little mid-week catch up with friends.

This place is great for their delicious muffins (I concur on the strawberry and ricotta!) but they're also great for lunch... as long as you don't mind the wait, there can be quite a line during the week. But I do love their takeaway pizzas - which they fold in half in a handy ready-to-eat way.

I have to say I love, love this place as a vegetarian cafe/bar. It's food is amazing and all meat-free. They are very chilled and relaxed but with a diverse menu of interesting foods. They have a great little garden area outside too. One of my favourite places to eat in Sydney.

This little gourmet deli has a range of imported goodies that are just mouthwatering. Particularly European imported foods or delicacies seem to be the most prevalent here. It's nice if you have a specific nosh that you are looking for or a lovely cheese or escargot if that's on your menu! It's not cheap, but there are some rare finds that you won't get from Woolies here.

One of the best dvd shops I've used... They have a huge selection with great sections for tv series, foreign films and docos, which are usually lacking in most stores. The staff are also quite good at recommending and they are starting to develop quite a decent blu-ray selection too. Also the late fees are really easy to manage - if you pay when you return it's only half the fee charged.

I put my car in with these guys to replace brake pads and for a service and they were just great. I knew there was a bit of work to be done on my car, having been a bit neglected and it getting on a bit so they checked it over, called me with a list of things that needed doing - they checked everything down to the wiper blades - and provided me with a quote and let me make a call on what I wanted done when. The cost was so reasonable, I got the whole lot done (everything from tune up to alignment) and the turn around was so quick. Their service is great and they're very extensive.

The re-furbed Cosmos can be a bit hit and miss both in quality and service, but I do like this place for the open feel and relaxed vibe - it has nice big cane chairs and large tables so it's a good place to stay for a while rather than those cafe's where you feel rushed. Great if you're just after a casual coffee or light meal and in the sun in the mornings so a great breakfast place. It's also open and still serving quite late if you're looking for a more relaxed locale than the nearby Sheaf and the food is nice enough and well priced for the area.
