I dined here a couple of weeks ago. They specialise in modern Italian cuisine. I had the seafood linguine which was full of the freshest most beautiful seafood I think I've ever had. It was beautiful. I can't remember the exact prices or what my boss had but it was about $85 all up.

Wow.This place is gorgeous. Flew in last night and have a conference here today. The rooms are beautifully presented and the conference room is set out so as to make everyone feel warm and welcome. No white walls wth huge glass windows just a cosy room that is the right size for the amount of people that we have and the menu for the day sounds perfect. It's not cheap but we just wanted to try somewhere different for our monthly conferences and this is definitely not your run-of-the-mill city hotel. I slept like a log on a beautifully cosy bed last nigt. The room service nenu is extensive and the staff are very professional.

I stayed here for two nights earlier this week and organised and attended a conference there yestereday. The rooms were very comfortable and the staff made organising the conference a breeze.Nothing was too much trouble and the luncheon and morning/afternoon teas that were served were very nice. Will definitely use them again.

I've just started using them and Ann was lovely. My house is sparkling and she was so efficient. She bought all her own gear so that was good, too. I only have a small unit and she cleaned the lot in an hour. The good thing is that she said that they do whatever you need. Next time I'm getting windows done.

Approximate cost: $25

I really have to compliment the staff here on their looking after me. I came down with food poisoning while on business and was holed up in the hotel for two days. They checked up on me and made sure I had every thing I needed. They really went out of their way. The room was lovely and contemporary, very classy and cosmopolitan. But most important...the bed was comfortable!

I was in Melbourne last week and went down with a bad case of food poisoning.Not having a G.P in Melbourne I just called into the closest doctors surgery I could find. The receptionist was lovely and I had to wait for a while to see a doctor but the lady I saw was very nice. I have a fewhealth problems and she was very good about going through them before prescribing anything. They were very good.

Our boss took us here last night to wind down after a rough week at work. We started off with some delicious cocktails then decided we should get something to soak up the alcohol so shared the 2 platters of Japanese Tapas. Not filling but interesting. What I really love about the menu is the huge variety of dishes from all manner of internatioal cuisines. You can go Thai, Indian, Japanese or Vietnamese. There's something to suit all tastes. I ended up with a seafood laksa (the nicest I've ever had) but you can even design your own! It's amazing. Be warned that it's not cheap if you want to order something like a steak (we're talking wagyu) but these are top of the line dishes and incredibly well prepared.

I lived inMunich for six months a number of years ago and my friend from there and I went to the Black Forest Restaurant for lunch on Wdnesday. I had the goulash and spaetzel while she had the German lunch. It took me back to Munich. Food was hot, authentic and altough probably not to everyones taste, it is indeed authentic, delicious German food. The waitress was lovely, too.

This review is for Southside Brisbane Dental Hospital, Woolloongabba QLD

This is one of the Public Health dentists in south Brisbane that offer free dental treatment to commonwealth healthcare cards or those on a pension. The dentists are lovely and very thorough. It's the reception that you receive when you either call or go in. On your first visit you are unable to make an appointment so you just turn up and wait. I went with my frien on Tuesday at 6am and was told in no uncertain terms that we should have been there earlier. There were only three other people waiting! I was out by nine o'clock very happy with the service from the lovely dentist. On return visits you can make an appointment. I've just had my neighbour tell me that her Father was waiting on dentures from them so she rang this afternoon to check for him. The woman refused to look up his file on her computer and argued the point about his even being a patient for a full 15 minutes befor "Oh, here he is. Gee he does come here!" No apologies for her rude behaviour. I'm not saying don't go there but put your hard hat on when it comes to dealing with rude, arrogant staff as a greeting.

This review is for AJ's Sports Centre, Algester QLD

I was going to AJ's up until a year ago. It's right next to Algester Primary so really handy to drop off the kids and then go in. I personally think that it needs a bit of updating as they're not short of members. They've got all of the standard excercise equipment plus an indoor (extremely stuffy and uncomfortable if you're not swimming) and small outdoor pools. Good local gym with very friendly and helpful staff.
