I love this website and if I google a recipe, it's always near the top of the list. I've never had a flop and they don't use over-the-top expensive ingredients.

I've been a member here for several years and it's certainly one of the nicer clubs to be a member of. The restaurant has some delicious meals and there's plenty of easily accessible parking. There's also a bottle store inside with quite reasonable prices. I've never seen any "episodes" with drunk customers so it's a really pleasant place to go.

This review is for Cottage Garden Nursery, East Brisbane QLD

I didn't even know there was a nursery this close to the city until I read Bernices review. I volunteered to do the Monday morning coffee run and... well let's just say I was a bit slow and had take the car! It's cute, cosy and the sort of nursery that I haven't been in for a long time. They've got a good variety of plants (I stocked up on herbs) and lots of pots for the garden, too. I'm going back this weekend for a better look but the guy was really friendly and welcoming.

I couldn't remember the name of this business and when I read the review it came to me. Yes the prices and service are excellent but the quality is questionable to say the least. I stopped going here a couple of months ago after getting fed up with the veg going off within 24 hours of buying it. If you want the produce for tonight then it's probably going to be ok but like most people I only have time to shop for f & v once a week and I got sick of the bad quality.

Stopped here for lunch on the way home today. The food is beautiful and fresh and healthy. I had a smoked salmon salad while the two kids had gourmet sandwiches. I loved that the different juices are named after the seven deadly sins and it certainly gave the kids a giggle! We each sinned (!!) and it cost us $60 all up.

We got fish and chips from here yesterday to have on the beach. The fish was lovely and fresh tasting and nice crispy chips. The guy that served us was lovely and gave us a bit of a run down on the area as we weren't too familiar. Nice place to go.

This review is for Kondari Hotel Resort, Urangan QLD

We stayed here over the weekend in a standard family room so we didn't have all of the extras but the restaurant in the hotel was great. I had a delicious reef and beef for only $20! The kids menu was pretty basic so considering most of the mains were only about $18, I let them loose and they had beautiful meals, too. This is obviously the place where the locals go because it was busy. Back to the resort. The surroundings are beautiful and even though it's winter they were just as well looked after. The pool looked beautiful and very inviting. Sat outside in the sun with a coffee and it was beautiful and peaceful. We've already booked for the next holidays! They have some great deals at awesome rates. I would definitely recommend them and we are returning!

This is an absolutely amazing place to dine. The staff are so friendly and welcoming that you feel like part of the family. The lamb rack that I had just melted in my mouth while the parsnip puree and crisps were a perfect accompaniment. There's a baby suckling pig on the menu and I saw one go past. It was beautifully presented and I'm not a pork eater but it smelt divine. I like that the desert menu is quite extensive, too. It's an ideal place to go for a special occasion.

This review is for Wridgways Removalists, Berserker QLD

When I first moved to Sydney Wridgways was the company that I used. I saw them drag my dryer along the wall, destroying the control panel. Then they dropped the microwave on it's corner! They tried to deny doing it even though we had watched it happen! The woman on the phone even tried to fob me off when I tried to get a report to put an insurance claim in. A pair of my husbands brand new work boots mysteriously disappeared on route but to be fair we don't know which end of the trip this happened. Never again!

This review is for New York Slice, Fortitude Valley QLD

These pizzas are delicious. My favourite is the veggie combo. I love how you can just get a slice (albeit a LARGE one) with a drink and garlic bread for $7. Cheap and cheerful lunch and always busy so to me that's always a good sign

Approximate cost: $7 for combo
