We came here for dinner a few days ago. Heard from friends this place does tasty dumpling and noodle dishes, so we ordered some to try.

The pork dumplings and pan fried noodles were delicious, but keeping in mind they are small servings , you will need to order more. As i found, with two hungry children. The Price is a lil expensive which is a bit off putting considering the serving size.

Staff are friendly and can get rather busy so i recommend you come around 5pm to get a table.

Approximate cost: $8 +

We came last night for a late night dinner with family. The place was very busy and packed. They offered us a table upstairs which we gratefully took. Decor is very simple and needs updating.

Staff took while to take our order and when they finally did we were happy.

We ordered cripsy skin chicken, beef flat rice noodles, asian greens stir fried, special fried rice and wasabi beef.

Food did take while to come out. I also noticed we weren't offered complimentary soup like the other diners, which was rather annoying.

Food arrived , one dish after another. Food was very tasty but the serving size's looked like they were only meant for two, which was a little off putting considering it is quite expensive.

Will come and dine again , but with more money in my pocket next time.

Approximate cost: $10 +

If your after bargain women'sclothing well priced and lots of sales instore SES is for you. Whilst everything is reasonably priced the quality isn't that great. You can get clothes to last you say a season or more...depending on how often you wear them. Staff aren't overly friendly to say the least especially today. I bought a black dress down to $20 from $25. At the checkout it scanned at original prices , whilst i told the staff member they were marked down and pointed to where the stand was of the marked down dresses, she muttered something in Korean and entered the reduced price in the register! Seeing and hearing this behaviour, made me walk out of the store and buy the dress. Won't be coming back here in a hurry. Disappointed really!

Approximate cost: $3.50 +

This is another chain in the already widely popular Japanese Chains. Everything and I mean everything is $2.80. Took my kids here yesterday and we came out with crayons, colouring books, toy cars and make up.. Only downside the packaging and writing is obvioulsy in Japanese, but some of the packaging has english translations. The store is very spacious, set up almost like a supermarket. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Will always shop here!

Approximate cost: $2.80

I came in yesterday with my new points activated card they give you to order and redeem points with in order to receive free drinks. I ordered my reg cappuiccino and scanned my card, didn't work and just activated it two weeks ago. The female staff member was unsure of what to do, seemed frazzled and really streesed over the matter. She then asked another male staff member who was also unsure. No communication to me about the situation. In the end I paid for my drink and left. Definitely won't be back again.

Approximate cost: $4 +

Omg Daiso Japan is a shopper's PARADISE!! Everything is $2.08 and you can find stationary, japanese make up , skin care, toys etc.

Staff are friendly and go out of their way to help you.

Store is set up nicely too..

I do love coming to shop at Blue Jade as they have great clothes starting from $10. Although on occassions there have been two staff members when i have visited just chat amongst themselves in their own language, oblivious to customers around them.. Other then that, great clothes at affordable prices.

I love coming here for my chicken rolls! They are so tasty with the crusty bread. They also serve tasty cheese and bacon rolls and other pastries too. Queue's are usually formed around lunch time , buy great too as there is lots of parking available.

Approximate cost: $2 +

One of the best charcoal chicken and chips place i have visited lately. We always stop by for lunch if we are in the area. Chickens smell divine and everything made on site. They do catering as well for functions too. Staff are great too.

Approximate cost: $10 +

I always come here for my morning coffee whenever I'm in Merrylands. Lots of tables to sit and staff are super friendly and quick with service. I love my cappuccino's and they always give my son a babychino which he loves.
