This review is for Paradise Motors Mazda, Paradise SA

verified email - 21 Nov 2013

The worst thing about owning a Mazda is that you have to take it to a Mazda dealer for a service (to change the oil filter) but Paradise Motors is absolutely amazing. They are honest and provide great customer service.
If you are waiting for your car, they book it in and it usually done within an hour and they provide beverages at a TV in a nice waiting area.
Highly recommend them for the Service of your car

This review is for Caffe Primo, Smithfield SA

Went here for girls night recently and had the chicken caesar salad, A bowl of wedges to share and of course the free pancake :)
The salad wasn't anything special and I was very disappointed with the cold egg. I enjoyed the chicken and the dressing was beautiful.
I was glad that we had the wedges to fill me up also.
The pancake was a great end as per usual

This review is for Cafe Nova, Gawler SA

verified email - 17 Aug 2013

Decided to give Cafe Nova a try for a light lunch this week. I decided to sit outside as the sun was shining.
I ordered a Focaccia with ham, cheese and tomato and a bowl of chips.

I was on my own so once I ordered just went straight outside to my table.

When my food arrived, I didn't really pay much attention till I tasted the chips and realised they needed salt that i had no salt and then realised I had no cutlery either. This was really dissapointing and being on my own I didn't want to leave my food on the table and ask for cutlery.
The foccacia was really nice but i didn't eat my salad either as I had no cutlery. This was the only disappointing part.

I would go back again but make sure that I get cutlery next time

This review is for The Elephant Walk, North Adelaide SA

verified email - 17 Aug 2013

Everybody always talks about The Elephant Walk and how great it is, so I decided to give it a try last night.
I was ready to have to wait in the cold but luckily enough we were there at the right time and got a table straight away. It is a very different setting and I can see where they are going with it. The worst part was that being a slightly larger girl it was really hard to get into the chair as the tables and chairs are so squished. But I loved the atmosphere, it was really relaxing.

I was with two other people and between us we ordered green tea, cappuccino and a hot chocolate. For dessert we ordered sticky date pudding, chocolate fudge pudding and peanut and chocolate waffle.

Our drinks arrived first and my hot chocolate wasn't very nice at all, I was quite disappointed. I could barely taste the chocolate and there is nothing worsts than a bland hot chocolate. My companions with me had the other drinks, the green tea was normal but the cappuccino was very bitter.

Desserts OMG!!! I loved my peanut and chocolate waffle, it was divine and made up for the bland hot chocolate. I was so happy

The chocolate fudge pudding was very rich and could have done with some more sauce and the sticky date was light and enjoyable.

Overall, it was a great experience and I would go back and try some of the cold drinks and definitely get another waffle

Approximate cost: $53.30

This review is for Vadoulis Garden Centre, Gawler SA

verified email - 13 Aug 2013

After a long walk from the main street of Gawler I thought that I would stop in at Vadoulis for some scones and an ice coffee (I dont drink hot tea or hot coffee). I have heard wonderful things about this little cafe.
The staff are very friendly and greet you straight away, was a lttle hard to figure out where their menu was though. I decided to sit outside in their courtyard in the wicker furniture which is very comfortable I might add. I could almost fall asleep on the lounge.
My scones arrived and they didnt look very appealing. They look home made but they looked over done on the tops and bottoms. My first half wasn't too bad but after that they started to go hard and were very chewy which I was very disappointed about. The strawberry jam was beautiful but the cream was rather too sweet for my liking. My Iced Coffee was served and it was beautiful and nice and cold which is just what I needed after my long walk. It was unfortunate about the scones but the drink definitely made up for it

This review is for Flight Centre, Munno Para SA

I wanted to book a package holiday to Melbourne through a Travel Agent to me time and have it all together in one.

I used the online form to contact the Munno Para store and never heard back in the first week, so I tried to contact again and once again no response. I then enquired through my husband name and after a week got a response. By this time I had decided to try another Travel Agent who has helped quite a lot and have given me an awesome price

This review is for The Java Hut, Gawler SA

verified email - 09 Aug 2013

Absolutely love this place. They are well priced (really cheap) and their Hot Chocolates are HUGE!!!!!
I order the Vegetarian Breakfast and i've had to change to an entree serve as the main serve is way to big, and I can't fit my Banana Pancakes after. The pancakes are also delicious, and look forward to them especially on a cold winter's day.

It is great they have extended also, they are always busy open to close, so it pays to book, and it is always a good idea to book in the new section away from the door as there are lots of people coming in and out and the tables are quite close together.

If you are ever in Gawler head in for a visit, they close at 3pm on weekdays

This review is for Tenafeate Creek Wines, One Tree Hill SA

Absolutely love this Winery!
I'm not a big Red wine drinker and Tenafeate make a beautiful Rose and Muscato.
The Cheese Platters are generous and are a nice addition to the table while waiting for Bruschetta and Pizza

Such a lovely way to spend a nice afternoon with such beautiful view of the hills and such a relaxed atomsphere.
For anyone visiting it is best to book in as they get very busy on Weekends and you don't want to be disappointed if they are fully booked

This review is for Telstra Shop, Munno Para SA

verified email - 12 Apr 2013

I am a Telstra Customer of many years and was very happy when they opened the Munno Para Telstra Shop.

The staff seem quite friendly and helpful and even with difficult matters are kind enough to listen and give as much assistance as possible.
The management on the store are also friendly and will go out of their way to make sure that I am looked after, it is also very nice to be acknowledged when I walk in, instead of being left standing waiting while staff talk to each other like at some other Telecommunication stores

This review is for Caffe Primo, Dernancourt SA

verified email - 12 Apr 2013

Went there on a Saturday night for dinner before going to the movies.
We had reserved a table but decided to sit outside, the staff were really nice and immediately brought our menus out to us which was a nice surprise.
In addition to their standard Primo menu they had their on menu, i ordered the Vegetarian Calzone.
The meals came out pretty quick, which was nice. My only issue with my meals was that it seemed like it had pepper in it which was a bit spicy for me, but I still ate most of it as it wasn't exactly a cheap meal at $19.90

The only downfall was that they didn't clear the tables when they came and I had to put our dirty plates onto another table, but this does seem to be the case at every Primo's.

We would have stayed for dessert but we had to get to our Movie.

i would go back again defiantely

Approximate cost: $23.00
