searching for a physio nearby to see about my twisted [?] toe, didn't get to call ahead to book an appointment but i was able to see someone soon as i walked up to the reception desk! Michael was very professional, friendly, considerate & helpful. Best of all, he didn't charge me an arm & a leg! i know where i'll go back again if i get anymore physical problems~! :)

i was looking for a cheap lunch in campbelltown when i came across Mina's with a sign for $10 lunch specials. i looked inside & *almost* left, not believing such a finely-presented restaurant could offer such a cheap lunch! but after looking at their very extensive menu of lunch specials, i was sold! (all specials come with steamed rice + soft drink - but i opted for green tea instead of soft drink.) so i tried their stir fried pork with lemongrass & chilli, the service was fast & personal! And i was delighted with the flavors, servings were very generous. i left with a very happy stomach & a happy wallet! interior decor & layout had a refreshingly pleasant atmosphere, without the usual plethora of idols that can often feature in many asian restaurants! i've since been back two more times, recommended it to friends for dinner & they were all just as impressed! :) i loved the penang curry with chicken i had today :D

Approximate cost: $10+

they've only been open for 3 months [?] now, and being very local, i couldn't help but notice a new restaurant in the area! The portions were very generous & excellent value for money - i ordered the curry chicken on rice for $7.90! unbeatable! great to talk to the staff & get to know them a little - very friendly! i will definitely be introducing more friends & family to this place & look forward to returning!

Approximate cost: $8-11

when a dear friend told me i could get a $10 haircut in Eastwood, i asked him to take me there & i came away satisfied, and my wallet thankful! :D

took our team here tonight to bless them... and they were BLESSED!! though the wait was long for the food, they did have to cook for all 11 of us, which is understandable! but when it came out, though the portions looked deceptively small in the stainless steel bowls, once dunked out on a plate, it filled it well. several mmbers of the team commented it's the best Indian food they've had - just the right blend of spices & flavors that make Indian food such a party-in-the-mouth-experience!! :) the staff are very friendly & beautiful! ... by the end of the mains + naan bread, most were too full to have dessert, but i couldn't pass up the opportunity to try some Indian pistachio-nut ice cream :D~ ~drool~ though not exactly the place to go on a budget, it will most certainly satisfy in a way that delights the taste buds like few other places will!

went to try a restaurant reviewed on womo in Camden only to arrive to find it's closed in day-times & only open for dinner ... so went around to find where else we could eat lunch, & came across this quaint little cafe ... the atmosphere & decor were homely & inviting. my friend & I were caught by the "gourmet pies" on the menu at a very attractive price! i got the chicken & leek gourmet pie with salad [no chips!] & my brother in Christ got the shepherd's pie with chips & salad :) we left with happy stomachs, and i was all but $18.80 lighter :)

discovered this shop tucked away in Campbelltown mall near to Coles after my plans took a major dive one day, by the time i discovered them (>4pm?), it was their 20% happy hour!! so never one to want to pass up a bargain, i ordered 3 inari [2 lobster + a seaweed inari] for $4.65!! my stomach was quite happy with that bargain afternoon tea, i went back again with a friend a week later & scored more bargains =) happy to go again after another op-shopping excursion along Queen St in Campbelltown :D

Approximate cost: $2-$3

catching up with a dear friend & brother in Jesus, looking for a good, well-priced place to eat, we walked across Chef's noodle with their large menu [with prices!] posted up on their windows - i thought, "seafood mee goreng for $10, that looks pretty good! the open kitchen gave it instant trust factor points! our food came out quite quickly and the portions were good value-for-money. of course the seafood was typically sparse, but we left with happy stomachs. it may be too spicy for some tastes, so just advise the cooks when ordering. i found mine spicy enough, but i am Malaysian, so that could be too spicy for those not used to eating spicy foods.

Approximate cost: $10

what really stood out at this funky little cafe on Glebe Point Rd was the kind service of the staff -- look out for Midori, a pretty little Japanese woman - i ordered a spicy chicken burger, she later came back & suggested if i order the spicy chicken sandwich, i'd save money! ~THAT'S~ SERVICE~!! :D the food was tasty, generous & very beautifully presented. the highlight of my time there was getting to chat with the lovely staff there, the owner even turned out to be my brother-in-Christ! [Sonny] always a joy to be able to dine in such a friendly, relaxed atmosphere~! they gave me a loyalty card, but even without it, i'd go back just for the friendliness factor~!!

Approximate cost: $10

after a morning of op-shopping in Sydney's Campbelltown, i was looking for a good place for a late lunch with my friend, we came across Thaiburn, though it was 3pm, they still let us have their $9 lunch specials!! :D bonus points to them! :) i had the chili basil noodles with beef, my friend had the green curry with chicken. Both dishes came out surprisingly quickly, [the open kitchen instilled a greater trust factor so we could see them actually cooking & not just going to some hidden back door & microwaving something! :P]and the portions were very generous for the low price! we both left with happy stomachs :) - i only gave a 3 star for quality of the food as my noodles were probably a little too oily ... maybe I should've ordered a curry with rice ... oh well, next time! ;)

Approximate cost: $9
