I had to make a booking two days in advance for a table of four people during the weeknights. The last time i went here i wasnt really impressed at all, however this time the food was beautiful started with the San cho bow as a entree and was beautiful very fresh and tasty. We had steamed rice, the chicken staty was very hot and spicey which was great full of flavour and freshness. The beef with cashews was also very tender meat, with lots of cashews, carrots. The salt and pepper calamari was very tender and tasty. After we had all been there for approx 2 hours leaving very satisifed. Will be returning again.

Approximate cost: $20.00

I took my TaeKwonDo uniform to The Golden Needle to have some badges sewn on. I wasnt in a rush for them to be done, I was told 3 days time it would be done, as it was and my uniform has the best looking badge on it, they did a fantastic job you can hardly even see where its been sewn. Highly recommend these guys.

This review is for Caulfield Chinese Restaurant, Caulfield East VIC

Ordered and collected three different meals from their economonical packs, I ordered lemon chicken with fried rice, the lemon chicken was cold and dry, and the fried rice was not any better either, brown fried rice, which was a surprise as ive never had brown fried rice before. The beef in curry sauce with steamed rice was okay. The service was good, and friendly on the phone and collecting order. I think it maybe under new management.

Four of us had our first Yum Cha at this cafe today, sign in the window says Yum Cha Set Menu from $9.95 per person. The staff are very welcoming and effiecent, the food range is great caters for everyone, my favourite at the restuarant is their Chicken Pies, Prawn Rice Rolls. This was the best Yum Cha I have had in a long time, I will be defently returning back here. They are also very child friendly which is also a great asset.

This review is for Kid Space, Hallam VIC

verified email - 24 Dec 2012

When we eventually found Kids Space Hallam, which was not that easy to find, it was quite good, probably suits 12 year olds and up rather than the younger kids, the food was nice. The servicewas reasonable, little bit on the pricey side, but better than some others. It is pretty easy to see your child majority of the time.

These guys are great, service from staff is very polite and speedy. They are really helpful there also, they will take you directly to the product your looking for. They are also very good and fast to fill out scripts, the longest i had to wait is 20 minuites on a really busy day.

Just happened to walk past, with some mates , had a cuppa which was the best cuppa Id had in a longtime. They have a great super play area for the little ones, where the parents can be involved to, and they make great coffee too. I will be going back here again.

Driving past saw the Cherries for Sale Sign $20.00 a Box, deceided to go in a have a look, the cherries were fully of flavour, juicy and really good and tasty. We finished the box full by the time we returned home. They have a huge range of different fruits, spreads some types Id never heard of before e.g Quince. They also have fresh free range eggs. The service is A grade, staff are friendly, pastries pies are delicious. I highly recommend you go there you will not be disappointed. I cant wait to drive back down to Bunyip again.

This review is for Hellenic Club of Canberra, Phillip ACT

verified email - 05 Nov 2012

Went here for a fundraising dinner and the service was great, beautiful fresh food, majority of the staff were polite and friendly although some towards the end of the night were being very rude and displayed no manners what so ever. The decor was modern and comfy and they do have a gambling machines there which i feel that they werent really obvious to everyone walking in, and they werent that noisy either, compared to the ones in Victoria.

This review is for National Zoo & Aquarium, Yarralumla ACT

verified email - 05 Nov 2012

Went here recently and the zoo astomphere and environment was really beautiful, they dont have a lot of animals on display most of the animals they only had one. The fairy penguin looked quite lonely, the lions were sleeping, so it wasnt really that entaining. The aquarium was probably one of the best things about the place. Its not really a all day event, maybe 3hrs at the maximum you'd spend there. They have about 12 lockers to hire which are around $4.00 for 2hours to hire and thats a big locker. Price is for one pensioner adult.

Approximate cost: $35.00
