An amazing experience, with beautiful food. The freshest of produce are used to compose perfect dishes. What really appealed to me was all the different textures that were used to create every specific meal. A really nice night, and the service was fantastic - very attentive waitstaff.

This is my favorite place to get my nails done!!! I live on the other side of town but I travel all they way just to get my nails refilled and set. The owner, Jess, is lovely and is very quick. However, sometimes they over book and you may be left waiting for a while - but it is well worth the wait!!

I have dined at Caffe La Via on various occasions throughout the last couple of years. It used to be fantastic place with cheap, decent meals, but the last few times I have been the quality of food has been less than satisfactory. I don't know if the chef has changed, but the whole group of us that have been often were all disappointed. Will not be going back in a hurry, unfortunately.

If you like pan friend dumplings, you will love this little treasure. All day, you can see the ladies making dumplings, it makes the experience something so special. They also have one of the best laksa's I have had, nice and creamy with a great amount of heat. I always go down to Jia when I'm a chaddy.

What a gorgeous rustic little place. Whenever I'm in doubt I always head down to this local. The food is so comforting and served beautifully. There are always a range of salads and sandwiches at the front counter, alongside the little cakes which always look so pretty. The menu is pretty basic, but the way the use ingredients are fantastic, nothing is too rich or heavy, it is really the perfect breakfast/lunch food.
Next door is the "take-away"/ Catering shop where you can purchase all sorts of things and order food for any event.
They offer a great range of GF cakes and meals, which taste fabulous also.

I have been to mesh for a few functions and have found the seafood buffet to be beautiful on the first few occasions but the last time I went, I found the crab to not be as sweet and fresh as those previous times, however all the hot meals were gorgeous. I'm not one to go for curries at a buffet, but one two occassions the different curries were so spicy and delicious. The dessert bar is out of this world, everything from self serve ice cream with all the trimmings, (not your standard ice- cream either, the most beautiful sorbets and ice-creams) to individual cakes and mousses. For the price you pay, it is VERY well worth what you get.

This is one of those little local wonders. The food is authentic Korean, so you need to know what to order when you go. The beef Bulgogi is one of the best I have ever had with the perfect balance of sweet and salty. This dish is always consistent, however the calamari is a hit and miss, sometimes amazing and then sometimes lacking in flavour. When you order all these little side dishes come out, they are generally always different, but of course there is always kim chi :)

One of my favorite locals. All day Yum-Cha!!!!! Our favourite dishes are: the steamed prawn dumplings, bbq pork buns, pan fried pork dumplings, crispy pork belly with plum sauce (omg yummo), the duck is also beautiful, and the honey pepper steak just melts in the mouth. We always finish a meal with steamed custard buns.....devine!! however I would not recommend any of the other desserts.

Approximate cost: $5-30

I found that the hotel itself was quite dated, however the package we purchased really did exceed. We started with high tea on our arrival, served with some sparkling. Then went up to our rooms to find a bottle of moet, chocolates, balloons, a take home robe and gorgeous other little gifts. The room was nice and spacious with a little kitchette, a lounge sweet and a cute little balcony. We spent most of the day in the roof-top pool which was gorgeous. The breakfast we had the next morning was lacking in quality. Howver it was still suffice. Overall a good experience and I would go back there.
