I love this place. These guys used to own Em Bar on Toorak Road, and they are great at what they do. The food is beautiful, fresh and healthy and the coffee is brilliant. The service is stand-out. The brothers that own it, are so friendly. I will always be going to Pillar of Salt for a take away baguette and coffee or for a sit down breakfast/lunch.

Approximate cost: $10-25

Firstly- one of my favorite places to get cheese!! Secondly, the coffee is very nice - and the food is above average. It is a cafe style set up and a very welcoming atmosphere. When i go down to Richmond i always stop in here - must admit it was better Stephanie was running it but still great!

I can't say i have dined here but have got takeaway seafood a few times. The quality of "fish and chips" is well above the quality of your standard fish and chip shop. Great value and the staff really are quite friendly.

This review is for Cooper & Milla's, Armadale VIC

Food is fantastic - always a beautiful array of fresh salads and lovely meals. Coffee is also fantastic. The downfall here is that the customer service is not very good - the staff are not very friendly and you have to cue up - it's very annoying and inappropriate for the style of food they provide- it reminds me or something they do at a low class pub!

This review is for Zimt Patisserie, Mont Albert VIC

a gorgeous shop, with such a wide variety of products. I can't say I have a favorite because i try something different every time I go. The bread is just beautiful and they also offer a range of gluten free products which a lovely. Most recently I had a fruit tart and it was gorgeous, the pastry was crumbly and short, the creme patisserie was sweet and smooth and the berries on top were just beautiful - would definitely have that again!!

Approximate cost: $3-10

This review is for endota spa Chadstone, Chadstone VIC

I really enjoy relaxing at Endota. The facials are so beautiful and the staff are always so gentle that I fall asleep. I feel so refreshed and silky smooth. I cannot go to endota without having a deluxe pedicure, the highlight for me is when they dip your feet in the hot wax, it's just gorgeous. And they sell great nail polishes.

This review is for Mecca Bah, Docklands VIC

verified email - 05 Jun 2012

Mecca Bah is a nice casual restaurant that I like to dine in with a group of friends. They serve authentic Moroccan food, that really is quite beautiful. The menu is very reasonably price, and the quality of food is up to standard. It is nice to order a few different things and share if you go as a group, so you can try various dishes. We usually have a couple of Tagines, a grill selection and the silverbeet pide (my favorite)

Approximate cost: $15-25

This review is for Giuseppe Arnaldo & Sons, Southbank VIC

verified email - 05 Jun 2012

Firstly, I have to mention that I absolutely adore the ambiance of the place. It is such a huge restaurant, with glass on one side so you are looking at people walking along southbank while you dine. Then there are all the beautiful cured meats hanging in the centre and the kitchen wish a wall of fresh breads. The tables are set up with cutlery on the sides, a very rustic yet appealing set up. The food is good. The produce is so fresh. I had the Spaghetti“Arrabiata” Crab, Tomato, Chilli, Baked in a Paper Bag the last time I went, and I really enjoyed it. Of course I asked for extra chilli and it was yummy!!

Approximate cost: $20-40

This review is for Leo's Fine Food & Wine, Kew VIC

verified email - 05 Jun 2012

My local Leo's is in Hartwell, however I do often go to Kew as I spend a lot of time in the area. The quality of all the produce is without a doubt the very best. You do however, pay the price. I believe that you pay for what you get, and to shop here you definitely need to be aware of that. In terms of floor staff there are not all that many floating around, but they are very friendly and knowledgeable.

Approximate cost: $1-50

The only reason I visited this store was because I was given a voucher to spend. I was not surprised at the poor quality of the clothes, not to mention the ridiculous pricing to go with it.
The service from the staff, or lack of I should say, was absolutely appalling. after at least 15 minutes of browsing in the store, not one of the girls came over to ask if I required any assistance. I would definitely not recommend to anybody.

Approximate cost: $50-100
