Had yum cha here the other day. The place was very busy. A must to book for this. A good variety of dishes and all reasonably priced. Place is clean and there is lots of car parking. the service was fast and friendly. Would definitely recommend Yum Cha here for anyone.

Approximate cost: $25 per head

Good cheap pub for a quick meal. Bistro is very run down and play room for kids was filthy. You don't need to book and big groups are welcome. Meals were typical for melbourne pub and prices matched. Kids eat free on Wednesday, make for a nice lunch out.

Approximate cost: $10-35

Went here for lunch the other day with girls from work, we were a little time poor. The staff were fantastic and got all our meals out quickly and they were delicious. The decor was quite run down and the doors to the restaurant was locked on arrival from the car park and I had to bang on the door for about 5 minutes, as the only other option was a pokies room, which I couldn't walk through as I had my 4 year old with me. Drinks were usual pub prices. The bistro was a big room with very little atmosphere. the staff were quite happy to provide my child with a little activity pack for him to play with.

Approximate cost: $10-35

We dine in 3-4 time a year here and often get the Pizza's for take away. Pizza's a a little pricey for what you get, though they do have a good selection. Great place for a family breakfast. They cater well for young diners with colouring in for them and a good variety of food. They offer 5% off for members, this helps. When my children were younger we would go there with our mothers group and were always welcomed and staff arranged the tables and chairs so we could fit extra chairs in. The venue is kept very clean. The sitting area for the take away wait is comfortable. The decor is starting to date though, has the industrial theme going on.

Approximate cost: $10-35

WE get take away from here on a regular basis. The 50% off makes it an affordable dinner. Only drinks and rice are full price even for take away :) The food is pretty good, for the price it can't be beaten. The staff are kind and helpful. The interior of the restaurant is typical of most asian restaurants, and the toilets could do with an upgrade. Great price, reasonable food and good service.

Approximate cost: $5-10

I have been a member for a few years now, the staff are attentive and knowledgeable. The facilities have recently been up graded. The attention to the little details like shampoo, conditioner and deodorant are great. There are so many different programs to chose from and suit most lifestyles.
Only down side is limited opening hours but these are being improved regularly.

Approximate cost: $40/per fortnight and upwards

Chris is an AMAZING lady, with out the help of this Doctor I would not have the 2 active and vibrant boys that keep me busy every day. I had 2 very complicated pregnancies, and she got me through them with complete safety. She is the reason I am a mum. Thank you chris from the bottom of my heart for my life and my family.

This review is for Paul Sadler Swimland, Rowville VIC

I have had 2 of my children swim with Paul Sadler, and while 1 of my children did very well there, the other didn't fit their one size fits all program. It ended in us having to leave, as we were unable to reach a class that could cater for his ability and age. The teachers were quite good on a whole and the supervisors were always approachable. For the money I was paying I was hoping fore a more individual program, not a one size fits all. Good school if you fit the normal. Quite expensive, but great facilities.

Approximate cost: $20

This review is for Beaver Swim School, Boronia VIC

I moved my son to Beaver Sim school last year from a Paul Sadler school, I went to all the swim school's in the area to test out before I chose Beaver's. The lessons are well run, (can be a little late though) and each child is taught on there own merit. Each child develops at their own rate and this program caters to this, very individual programs. Classes are small, and well priced. Discounts are given for second and subsequent children. The teachers are very dedicated to the children and give lots of encouragement. For value for money and individual program there is no better in the area.

Approximate cost: $14.75

I cannot thanks Ruth more for the service and attention and advice that she gave to us, while organising our wedding. We were on a very tight budget and she helped us chose flowers that we loved and at a price we could afford. Ruth made sure that everything was perfect. She knew all there was to know about wedding floristry, including the need for a second button flower for my now husband, who knew that so many hug's could ruin the flower? Thanks to Ruth's we had a back up :) The Flowers were perfect, delivered on time and on budget. Ruth made this part of organising a big day easy.
