Awesome dumplings at really cheap prices. They have a massive range but the best are the fried dumplings. They can get pretty busy on sat nights with the Uni students but people get in and out quickly.

I've had a great time reading the reviews and constructively adding my own reviews to WOMO. I've found it to be a highly rewarding website and easy to navigate. Absolutely loving it :)

Stopped in here on the way through to the snowy mountains after a friend recommended it and we weren't disappointed. The coffee was excellent and the pecan pies were not too sweet and had lovely pastry. Service was very friendly and the waitress even made sure to offer us a plastic plate and booster seat for my toddler.

This review is for Lake Crackenback Resort, Jindabyne NSW

I've stayed here several times over the past 10 years with my family. We've always visited in the Summer so it's nice and quiet as in the winter season it gets very busy with skiers and snowboarders. The apartments look right onto the lake and you often see people fishing directly off their balconies. There are lots of hiking and mountain biking trails right around the resort where it's easy to spot wildlife such as wombats, kangaroos and native birds. The resort runs plenty of activities for kids and adults such as segway tours, archery, swimming and craft. There is a fine dining restaurant and a more casual pizza style restaurant on the property, most apartments have their own kitchen so you can self cater if you choose. A great family friendly place to stay.

Basic pub in middle of Tuggeranong, usually pretty quiet except on a Friday night when it gets a lot of tradies. They do trivia night on Tuesdays which can be good for fun with friends. Reasonably priced drinks and a large variety of whiskies. The bartenders are friendly and efficient.

I went to Ojos for a friend's birthday function and it was excellent. The place was well set up and decorated and worked well for such an event. There are separate areas such as the pool area, lounge, dance floor and outdoor seating. This meant that people could go where they were comfortable and relax and enjoy it. The staff handled it all well and the bar moved through drinks orders quickly.

I went here for a celebration dinner with my partner and it was an incredible experience. We arrived a few minutes early to our booking and our table wasn't yet ready, even though we were early the waiter offered us a seat on the deck and gave us complimentary wine while we waited. We both had the degustation menu and every dish was delicious. The waitress carefully went through the details of each dish and regularly checked back with us to see if we needed more drinks and the suchlike. The view out across the lake at night is stunning and the restaurant has a lovely calming ambience that feels very intimate. Can't wait to go back here again, it was a fabulous evening.

The cupcakes here are beyond amazing and whilst they have regular flavours they also have a range that changes frequently so you can always try something new. I love going here with friends and sharing a pot of tea over cupcakes. They do delicious milkshakes and chai lattes too. Some of my fav cakes are the Mint slice and the Wagon Wheel. Really cute cafe to sit and relax in.

This review is for Mingle Espresso, Canberra ACT

Nice coffee place in the heart of the Government buildings in the CBD. There's usually a line of public servants but the staff are efficient and I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for my order. Make sure to get a coffee card if you're going to visit regularly to get better value. The coffee syrup flavours are a bit pricey at $1 extra.

This review is for Turkish Pide, Phillip ACT

Turkish Pide house in Woden does a great lunch special which I often get when I'm working, it's $10 for a one person pide (that's really large enough to feed 2) plus a drink. They have a good menu for both take away and eat in, including a couple of banquet options. The zucchini balls are a favourite with my family.
