What an experience. The food is amazing and really cheap but what makes the difference is the atmosphere- amusingly quick service, tiny seating space and slightly bizarre decor. Such a charming, friendly place. Topped off by the owner (a slightly older man) who plays the fiddle at the resteraunt resteraunt.

Approximate cost: $7-8

I really like this resteraunt, the decor was amazing and it had a really good atmosphere. It was slightly expensive but it could have been a lot more expensive given the location and quality. Portion sizes were huge too and I'm going to remember for next time that it is BYOB. Really liked it!

Approximate cost: $25-30

Worst manicure I have ever had. So bad, it looked about a week old when I was leaving the shop and despite being shellac it was beginning to come off during the first week. The lady doing it was unfriendly, cut my nails too short and had a massive attitude when I pointed out that she had missed out a big section of one of my nails. Was really not an enjoyable experience and I wasn't happy at all with the results. Pretty disappointed and won't be back to a ProfessioNAIL salon again unfortunately.

The King George V Recreation Centre run a basketball session, open to anyone for only $5. They have a variety of different sessions for all abilities. The staff are soo friendly and helpful. The court is excellently located and the facilities are of a good standard.

Not the best resteraunt I've been to but still a very nice place. Lovely outdoor spot for a sunny afternoon They offer a large gluten free menu which is why we went as it suited a friend. The meal was nice but not super impressive, we did have a very nice wine with our meal though. The service was pretty slow/not very attentive despite it being fairly quiet.

Approximate cost: $20-25

Such a good hairdressers! The big thing for me was how friendly the staff were but the quality of the hair cut was really good too. I had a cut, colour and blow dry and I was really happy with the results, I told them I had an event that night so they styled it really nicely for me too.

Approximate cost: $50

This is the first nail place that I have actually returned to, I usually just pop into whatever salon I'm passing but this one stood out to me so I went back. The first time I got a shellac mani/pedi and it was the service that I appreciated the most. The girls were friendly and one worked on my fingers while another one did my toes which meant it didn't take long at all. All while sitting comfortably in a massage chair. I popped back for just a polish and colour, results are good and it was only $15!

This review is for The Ranch Restaurant, North Ryde NSW

I loved it here! Was so much better than I was expecting, they have an outdoor terrace with a DJ and a buzzing atmosphere- perfect setting for early evening drinks in the sun. I think they close it pretty early so probably not the spot for a late one but we went during Friday happy hour ($5 kopperburgs!) and it was ideal. Quite a far walk away from Macquarie centre and the business park but I think I saw they had started a shuttle bus... which probably means I'll be back!

I had a posture and spine assessment that was very interesting and informative. I don't have a particular problem, just wear and tear through sport but they explained how small changes could make big improvements. I then had a massage which was incredible, really worked out knots in my hips and shoulders. Very professional and friendly environment and they provided water and nuts after which was a really nice touch!

Approximate cost: $95

I spent Melbourne Cup here and it was so much fun!! The packages on offer were great value for money, plenty of canapes and good bar service. Excellent venue in terms of style and location and the bar staff were really friendly! Will be back for after work drinks and would like to try lunch or dinner.
