We went to their show room and they were really helpful. I understand they will be helpful because they want to sell there product to you but we got information that I feel they did not have to supply. We went in to buy venetian blinds but also we asked about sliding plantation shutters. We were told the sliding plantation shutters were not one of there normal lines but could supply material that will work for us, we went into a detailed conversation on how to make and install the sliding plantation shutters to suit our needs. I was very impressed with the service provided and I felt the staff were very informative on the product they sell.
We didn't purchase the plantation shutters because the location we wanted to install them it really was not suitable we did however purchase 4 venetian blinds
The 4 venetian blinds were made to suit our sizes as our windows are not normal sizes. They fitted the windows perfectly.

We dined here on a Living Social voucher ($50) and I am glad we did.
The restaurant was not busy and we were sat at our table quickly.
After we ordered our meal, we were waiting for a little while, then our table staff came out and asked if we had our entree yet. Immediately after we were asked if we had our entree another staff member brought it out, it was sitting in the kitchen.
For entree we got the Bush Pepper Calamari to share and is was cooked perfectly, not rubbery like some can be, and it tasted lovely.
Our main meal was Eye Fillet and Steak & Rib. Both were requested to be med/rare, the eye fillet was perfect but my steak was med. I didn't send it back as it would have taken too long for another to be cooked,but this did not spoil the experience.
The desert was larger then we thought, it was HUGH and I really didn't understand how big the Brownie was going to be, then my wife ordered the Apple slice.
The staff member told us the Brownie was like "Angels dancing on your tongue" and he was correct it was lovely. The desserts are large enough to be shared with 2 people.
So after the entree then the large main then the even bigger dessert, the top button was popping on the way home.
We had a very good meal here and apart from my steak being medium (which was not juicy - but not too dry) it was an enjoyable night.
We ordered:-
Entree 1-Bush Pepper Calamari to share
Main 1-Eye Fillet
1-Steak & Rib
Desert 1-Brownie
1-Apple Slice
All this accompanied with 1 VB then 2 coffee's
When we were leaving we went to the counter and the staff member told us our bill was $117, then we reminded her about the Living Social Voucher and we only had to pay for 1 dessert which was not part of the voucher.
The staff were very very friendly and the venue was clean and well presented. The music was too loud for me (50yr old), the video around the place was not too distracting for me, if I didn't want to watch the TV I just didn't look at it.
Hope they have another voucher offer as I will definitely purchase.
Thanks for a good meal.
