This review is for Frank & Jeff Discount Tyres, Ipswich QLD

If you are a male that knows a lot about cars, you may like this place.
If you are a female, that just wants a new tyre and wheel alignment, don't go here. I merely wanted a new spare tyre, as it was flat. They told me that the wheel was not flat. I insisted that it was, but they continued to disagree.
After the wheel alignment, I took my car to another company who replaced my spare- because it was flat!

This is one of my favourite Chinese Restaurants. You can dine in and take away here. The restaurant has typical chinese décor.
Food can sometimes take a while, but you forget about that as soon as you start eating.
They do package deals to take away, or share table options, that are always value for money. Staff are always friendly and nice.

Approximate cost: $10.00

This review is for Hog's Breath Cafe, Ipswich QLD

Have been here a couple of times. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but is very nice inside. Tidy, typical Hogs Breath Décor.
With a group of people, it is great, as they allow you to split a bill. Some Hog's Breaths' don't allow this, so were very happy.
Food is very fast to come out, we barely finished out entrée before the main meal was on our table.
Staff were very fast to act on what you need. At times I didn't even need to signal the waitress, she just appeared to clean up/get drinks etc.
Well done!

Approximate cost: $30.00

This review is for Hog's Breath Cafe, Upper Mount Gravatt QLD

I was ever so disappointed when I heard Dicey Rileys was leaving this location. However, the Hogs Breath that has replaced it is equally as good.
You can eat inside, in a nice cosy environment, or outside on their big open verandah.
The staff are super nice. We have a frequent visitor card that we forgot one trip, so they stamped a card and allowed us to transfer to the old card next time.
Highly recommend this restaurant.

This review is for King Of Cakes, Graceville QLD

verified email - 22 Sep 2013

We go to King of Cakes quite regularly as a Sunday morning brunch. There is such a wide variety of options- from hot food such as pies, to traditional German pastries and cakes.
My favourite item is their pretzel, or Brezel. I often buy more than one to take home.
They also have a small selection of German grocery items, meats and deli.
I love the food, love the service and love this place!

This review is for Mos Burgers, Booval QLD

If I could give more than 5 stars for service, I would. The staff here are so very friendly and polite and go out of their way to assist you.
The food, while somewhat small in portion size, packs a real punch. While burgers are not traditionally a Japanese cuisine, they have taken an Australian food category and made it different. It is great to see Japanese represented in more than just Sushi. The teriyaki chicken is by far my favourite.
It is not exactly the cheapest take away food, but as I always say, you get what you pay for.

This review is for Fatseas Chicken Bar Carvery & Hot Bread, Ipswich QLD

I used to go here all the time when I was younger, but now as an adult I don't tend to go much.
You get what you pay for here. If you are after simple hotbox food, then it is fantastic. If you are expecting it to have any strong tastes, then it may not be the place for you. I do quite enjoy their chips and gravy and lasagne.
Staff are friendly, but don't really put any extra effort into talking aside from taking your order.

This review is for Accor Vacation Club, Sydney NSW

verified email - 15 Sep 2013

Was a member of this club for a year. Did not renew it once the year was up.
We like to take casual weekend trips away, we don't really plan them a long time in advance, just decide a week or two out that we are going away. Accor can be difficult to book in this circumstance, you need to know ahead of time and book early.
We enjoyed our free nights at the Sofitel on the Gold Coast and used our 'buy one get one free' offer for dinner there. All up this saved us about $350- covering the cost I paid for the club.
I recommend weighing up what you want to use a holiday club for before signing up. It can definitely be worthwhile if you like to book ahead.

This review is for Physioactive, Ipswich QLD

verified email - 14 Sep 2013

Unfortunately I went here for about a year before I realised that they had done more damage than good.
This place is more about the money than the service. For my back injury, I would do some stretches, then they would put a Tens machine on my back for 15 minutes, while they started with the next client. I once layed there with the alarm beeping for 10 minutes before they came back. I went through 3 different physios- so no one knew my full history.
It took me until my disk completely ruptured before the hospital recommended a new physio.

This review is for Vibe Nail Salon, Booval QLD

I am in 2 minds about this place. I got a pedicure done here and the nailpolish that was used was wonderful. It lasted for weeks without chipping at all.
However, it wasn't the most relaxing experience. It actually hurt at times, especially when they were trimming the nails, I actually started bleeding!
