I had the best ever chicken ceasar salad there - the view is gorgeous the staff knowledgeable and the place fills up fast - the best bit is walking from the verandah to the sand on the beach.

I recently visited Ethical Gifts and was blown away by the quality of their gifts - I feel good buying from them, knowing that I'm helping someone overseas and that the recipient will also enjoy their gift - lovely little place.

Best shop for dance/costume fabrics. A world of it own in a really good way. Always great service, brilliant ideas and I can't recommend them highly enough. Ps their fabrics make the best corsets.

Always the best part of a road trip to Qld - a warm welcoming bakery that lets you drool on their windows - the pies are awesome and the vanilla slice is hard to beat - custard tarts rock too - wish they weren't so far away.

Always a treat and a delight to eat here - something I look forward to - portions are HUGE with great value and they do a really mean (fantastic) coffee.

Ok I'm bias - best plum pudding I've ever tasted and the chocolate leaves are delicious - I could eat them all day long. I love a good coffee whilst I shop and this place makes me swoon. Excellent service, gorgeous products and a place I feel so at home at.

Approximate cost: $89

Great place to hang out - very local - full of familiar faces and the food is so delicious and generous. Fantastic coffee too - attention to detail and very friendly team.

I shop here and the new store on Howitt street and I love that you can buy a whole box of what you want. The staff aren't very helpful but the prices are great and you can choose plastic bags or a fruit box to carry your produce home in. They have great specials and are always good value for money.

Oh my gosh - a girl can spend a fortune here and it's well worth it too. This reminds me a gorgeous euro deli with fresh fruit and veg, meats, deli, gourmet drygoods and cheese - oh the cheeses - they offer a frequent member card too which I've taken up and each time I spend I'm getting closer to a nice reward.

I only found out about stems when I was sent a gorgeous bunch of oriental lillies - they lasted for ages and as a result I buy flowers for my home and to cheer up friends and family - gorgeous range, beautiful, fresh and even better prices and they listen to what you want which is so wonderful.

Approximate cost: $35
