A fairly good place for Thai food. They have nice curries and do a good Pad Thai. Roti is also good. Service is pleasant and the restaurant has a comfy feel to it.

Approximate cost: $18-$25

Waiters are friendly and food is served relatively quickly. Love the steak with lobster tail, chips and veggies. The serve is huge and price is decent.

Approximate cost: $20-$40

An excellent fish and chips shop with great salads. We ordered a large pack and tried both grilled and battered fish, both were delicious. The calamari was perfect. You can eat in or take away. You will end up paying a little more than at a standard fish and chips shop, but well worth it for the taste of good food.

Approximate cost: $10-$15

Korchi is Korean and Chinese and therefore offers a range of cuisine. We originally stopped by here as the Korean BBQ place next door was closed, but ended up coming here fairly often after. A favourite of mine is their spicy prawns dish at the very back of their menu, which comes out on a huge plate and aims to serve at least 2. Service is average, but food does come out quick.

Approximate cost: $18-$35

A small shop, but good service and food. We especially like their spicy seafood tofu soup. BBQ servings are not big though and therefore be prepared to order a few dishes. There is parking out front if you a lucky enough to score one, there is also ample parking at the station 2 minutes walk away.

Approximate cost: $15-$25

A well loved Japanese place because of the good service and food. Sushi and sashimi platter is always a good choice. Momoyaki chicken is also good. The downfall of this place is that the portions of food are relatively small and therefore an average meal can end up to be around $40-$50 for dinner.

Approximate cost: $25-$35

We go here several times a year. Service is always good. We usually always order more than we can eat. Love the Sofia pasta with fettuccine and the seafood avacado salad. The garlic bread with cheese makes a good entree. Seafood platter is decent, but I would pass on the steak here as it's not really their speciality. Their salmon pizza is also decent but a little on the salty side. You can never pass on a large gelato for dessert here, it's massive and you get so many flavours! They also have some decent cakes and a good coffee for after meals.

Approximate cost: $15-$20

A place for a cheap eat, so don't expect too much. The dumplings were average although a little too oily for my liking. The noodles however were quite nice and full of flavour. The coconut juice comes in a huge can. Servings are fairly good. A favourite would be the little pork buns "Xiao long bao". Service was standard, a tad slow at times, but otherwise okay.

Approximate cost: $10-$15

I usually buy a number of goodies from this Korean bakery as the food is not only good, price is also reasonable. A favourite is 'ugly bread', which may not sound pleasant but is actually a sweet bread filled with flavour. They also have a large variety of cakes, all which are fairly good. The mocha breads are also very good. The owner is friendly and always welcoming which adds to the pleasure of purchasing from here.

For $60 membership, this place is well worth it if you live close by or are willing to make the trip. We always come home with a full boot. They sell everything here from food to clothing to jewellery. The chocolate section is my favourite and if you are a fan of Reese's peanut butter cups or Hershey's, then Costco would be like heaven for you. For a more healthy pick, they have large packs of dried fruit and nuts. The dried mangoes are so yummy! They also have bulk packs of bulgogi which is really well marinated if you like Korean food. I also shouldn't, but often do, take one of their rich passionfruit cheesecakes home. Prices for general items are slightly cheaper than Safeway/Coles, but pretty much everything comes in bulk packages of at least 1kg which can limit the amount of choices and room in your fridge/freezer/pantry.
