Raw Element is fabulous. Finding hairdresser that you can trust is not an easy feat, so when I was recommended to Raw Element I was very pleased. The service is great, head massages and great styles. I am always please when I leave. The price is med-high, but it's an award winning salon I believe.

Approximate cost: $80

I received my motocycle license with these guys. They are good business to deal with. The lessons were safety focused and set out well. The instructors were passionate motocyclist and enjoyed passing the knowledge on. I took the 2 day training and license course, and got my license first time.

I would recommend Van to do future photographs. She took some great pictures for our family members as a gift. They absolutely loved it. She worked with 2 adults, a baby and a family dog. Her prices were also value for money.

Wonderful hidden gem in the middle of Brunswick St.. You can easily walk past it and miss the small and simple facade. But the food, service and ambiance is top class, we liken it to Lake House in the CBD.

Fabulous place, I believe it was rated one of the best restaurants in the region. Service is top class, and food is devine. The accomodation there is also simple but nice. High recommended to visit at least once.

A hidden gem for young people if you like to learn popular dance. 2 of the teachers at the MMA were actually Top 20 on the program So you think you can dance? Compared to other places I have tried, this place has great atmosphere, non-pretentious, people who attend are friendly and just there having fun and dancing.

This review is for Go Wild Ballooning, Coldstream VIC

We took out overseas visitors on a hot air balloon right in the Yarra Valley and decided to go with these guys. They were professional, experienced and provided great service. For the package, you get city transfers, a 5-star champaign breakfast at Chateau Yerring Heritage House.

This review is for Porter's Paints, South Yarra VIC

Great place to go if you want expert advice on paint colours for home renovations or other paint related jobs. These guys are creative with their different types of paints, you can get different effects in your paint (i.e. rusted look). You are paying slight premium but you do get great service and ideas on your pain jobs.

Approximate cost: $140

Amazing simplistic food. We regularly go to the outdoor restaurant that serves the pastas. The hand-made pumpkin tortellini with the roasted sage is to die for, I ask for the same dish over and over again. It is also great value for money for the pasta dishes. Excellent service.

Approximate cost: $18
