This review is for Carlton Brewery Tour, Abbotsford VIC

verified email - 15 Jul 2012

Gives you a behind the scenes tour of Carlton Brewery. It shows the history of beer and what it takes to make beer. It takes about an hour and you get to have tasting of 4 different beers. There also is cider on tap. I am not a beer drinker but the tastes were enough to know if you like the beer or not. Some would be very good in the heat of summer.
Great thing for tourists to do in Melbourne. Indeed there were people from all over the country and world. We were the only locals.
There is a shop you can buy merchandise from as well.

We had steak here and it was cooked well and very tasty. There are a great range of wine, beers and spirits to have along with your meal or if you just want to have drinks. We were there at happy hour so it made it a good price.
The waitress was very helpful, explained everything and attentive. I would love to go back just to have the steak again.

We had cheesecakes each and they both were very Delicious. The coffee was great as well. It gets quite busy so your order does take a while to come but worth it in the end.

This review is for Cafe Oggi, Burwood East VIC

I went here in the morning and had coffee. The place was very busy with people who work in the area calling in for their takeaway coffees and there were a few dining in for breakfast.

There was a wait to be served but that was just because of the volume of people coming thru. The barrista was taking orders while he was making coffee while another was taking eftpos transactions and delivering food and coffees. Another staff member was getting food orders.

The coffee was great and I also got a slice to take away for later. I have not had any experience with lunch or dinner so unable to comment on that but there was a reasonably priced menu and pizza range.

This review is for The Locker Room Bar & Cafe, Docklands VIC

I discovered this one while working in Docklands. A part of Etihad Stadium it is on the concourse where the big TV is.
The food is really reasonably priced even better if you get the Livewire club card. I enjoy the coffee, and the cakes, slices and muffins are good too. There also are paninis, toasted sandwiches, and other types of bread roll types.
It does get busy sometimes depending on what is on but other times you can sit and relax, read the paper or just watch the world go by.

This review is for Zaika Tandoori Indian, Ashwood VIC

Great Indian food that is delivered to Chadstone,Asburton, Ashwood, Burwood East, Glen Iris, Mount Waverley and Oakleigh. Depending on how busy it is the delivery time can vary. Free delivery if your order is over $30.
The Onion Bhaji is very spicy but comes with dip and I mostly have the butter chicken. The sauce is a bit runny sometimes but always great tasting.

Delivery was fast and the pizza deals are great value. Pizzas are as good as Dominos or any other like them. There is an great range of pizzas some of them unusual. Sammys have sides and pasta dishes as well.

This review is for Pet Express Transport Services, Niddrie VIC

Moving from Sydney to Melbourne, we had to come up with a way to transport 3 cats without taking them in the car.
We got a quote from Pet Express and it was a really reasonable one. Haider and I were in touch either thru email or phone contact throughout the process so every thing was arranged for the big day.
Pet Express go the extra mile for customer service. I ended up in hospital the day the cats were to leave and Haider came up with great solutions for both collecting the cats in Sydney and delivering to the new house in Melbourne.
I have since had friends and family ask who transported our cats as they have had heard me rave about them. They really deserve good word of mouth.

Indian Harvest does a great Butter Chicken that I enjoyed a couple of weeks ago. My husband had the vindaloo and raved about it.
It was Friday night and quite busy but the staff were very attentive.
being BYO made it a good option for going out as well.

Had a lovely lunch here today. The Baramundi with creamy lemon sauce is divine. There are a great range of warm lunch options for these cold days and the coffees are great as well.

Approximate cost: $14 to 18
