What a wonderful place with alot to do!! As you might see in my profile pic, you can even swim with the sharks!!
Being an animal lover, this is a wonderful place to go. I could go very often if I lived close by. Great for the young and the old!

Approximate cost: $50

This review is for The Corner Chemist, Adelaide SA

There's something about these tiny little chemists!! The service is great and they take the time to understand and help with ones needs. Its the only chemist I have been to where they actually explain the medication and how to take it etc.

Approximate cost: $Average

This review is for Unley BBQ Chickens, Malvern SA

verified email - 25 Sep 2008

This place cooks the best hot chips in Adelaide, no ifs or buts!!
The rest of thier take away menu is very chicken orientated and is rather average, yet tasty.
Prices are decent enough and it has ample car parking, something I really like.
They only use free range chickens too (as whole roasted anyway)

Approximate cost: $10

This review is for Homestyle Budget Motel, Robinvale VIC

verified email - 25 Sep 2008

Passing through this small town, I had major car troubles which landed me here for a few days. The motel, although small, is as the name suggests, very homely.
The people running it were very helpful with any and all enquiries which made the stay that much more pleasurable.

Approximate cost: $90 a night

This review is for Malvern Medical Centre, Unley SA

When I first came to Adelaide, many years ago, I searched for a good Doctor as its something thats important to me. I prefer not to see someone I dont know like what those large clinics offer. This is a true, family run business. 3 Brothers and a couple of other associates. The service is good, waiting is never long. They take thier time and listen, something important I feel.

Approximate cost: $Average

This review is for Spats Coffee Lounge, Goodwood SA

verified email - 25 Sep 2008

A weird little place. Poorly lit (or romantically dim some might say) with private booth areas to enjoy small meals and hot beverages.
The food friends received was, well questionable. I opted out of food and went with a tea which I was rather pleased with.
The atmosphere alone is certainly enough to warrant a visit.

Approximate cost: $17

This review is for Hyde Park Gourmet Grocer, Hyde Park SA

verified email - 25 Sep 2008

I stumbled across this small yet well stocked gourmet grocer today and from the one visit, I can safely assume I will no doubt do most of my shopping here in the future. The service was top notch and very professional but the most impressive thing was the range of goods. Not only is the range for a gourmet grocer huge but the prices are fantastic, no exaggeration!! The thought of gourmet brings thoughts of going into debt but its not the case here!!! More on par with major supermarket chains.

Approximate cost: $Average, if not below.

This review is for Fish Out Of Water, Hyde Park SA

verified email - 25 Sep 2008

They call themselves "the funkiest takeaway in the universe" and the most certainly meet those standards! Not only do they sell all the traditional fish and chip shop items but they have a great selection of gourmet burgers which are fantastic!! (what I had tonight)
Another important factor is the hot chips are spot on and tasty too!!
Very happy overall...little on the pricey side but then it is special!

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Harriett's Elegant Gift & Homewares, Clarence Gardens SA

verified email - 23 Sep 2008

I only visited this shop for the first time today and WOW!!
I purchased 6 cupcakes, each different and each amazing (although I didnt personally find that out.....6 cupcakes for one is too much!!)
I can personally suggest the Very Vanilla Cupcake and the Banana Caramel...again, amazing!!
The service too was to be admired.
There are other gift items available for sale however I only went really for the cupcakes I had heard about.

Approximate cost: $Slightly above average however its worth it

This review is for House Of Java, Unley SA

I personally bought some large wooden, balinese doors from this store however I wish I could buy everything within the store!! The range is fantastic, theres something for everyone. Not only do they have some fantastic furniture pieces, but they have alot of accessories too, from artificial flowers to candles etc.
The service is fantastic, prices are decent.
