I have really enjoyed TGI Fridays every time i've been. The staff are always really friendly, the food is fantastic - especially the nachos and the burgers. It's a fun experience although not so crash hot for vegetarians!

I went to BlueFire Grill & Bar for a work function. A bit pricey but them, it's that kind of restaurant. The staff were 'ok' but not great. Food was good as was the view. I wouldn't race there in a hurry.

Approximate cost: $25-30

I love Trampoline. Ok; i'm the first to admit i get a bit dizzy over any ice cream but Trampoline is really great. The ice cream is delicious and the store is fun, bright and happy. Whilst any franchise tends to lose a bit of the 'freshness' from an orginial exclusive businesses, the various Trampoline stores i've visited have met my expectations (and will continue to as long as they sell their 'Iced Vovo' flavour!!!).

Crumpler are cool. Simple as that. From my experience in the city store, they have great staff, a huge range of bags and a fun attitude.

I like that Hudson's Coffee is Australian owned so i had a coffee there recently and i found the staff pretty avergae. They weren't all that polite and had little idea of their own menu. Coffee was ok; not great.

I has a great Spud at Spud Bar. A really tasty lunch at a cool place. They have virtually everything you could think of to put on your potato and some cool pre-defined choices!

I have been pleasantly surprised shopping at GNC. From the outset, they look elitest and ultra-expensive but have dealt with them i have found their staff to be very knowledgable and helpful, the product range extensive and prices 'fairly reasonable' most of the time.

I have used this florist a few times and have been really impressed with their flowers. They make great looking bunches that are well priced and have been only too happy to deliver - which has been on time every time.

I have had numerous massages and more recently bowen therapy with Liz Morris at Eastland Health and Healing. Liz is a delightful lady who is very understanding and caring with any niggling issues you may have that can be attended to. Having had bowen therapy practiced by Liz cut my back pain down significantly. I really recommend Liz and Eastland Health and Healing as a place to unwind, relax and receive treatments that will make a big difference to your health.

King Bean cafe is an unlikely quality find in Wantirna at Wantirna Mall. They have a good range of food and drinks, a nice atmosphere and polite, attentive staff.
