I love the food here. I always get a combo yiros with garlic sauce and they are absolutely mouth watering. The garlic sauce they use is amazing and they absolutely stuff the yiros full of their delicious spit roasted chicken and lamb. I also always get there mixed roasted veges. (divine.) Not the cheapest yiros shop around, but definitely one of the best! They truly are kings at making a great yiros!

I used to love going into this store to buy wine... (I say used to as I hardly drink alcohol these days), the owners of this store actually genuinely care about their customers and love finding out as much about the types of wine, or whatever you prefer to drink and they will give excellent recommendations on what to buy. (They are definitely not one of those stores that are only interested in taking your money.) The staff are extremely knowledgeable, as well as friendly, and they absolutely love to have a good friendly chat with all of their customers. A business that still does things the `old fashioned way`and you can tell they are genuine when they offer you a product. They do not even try to get you to spend more money than you want to, as they will straight out ask you how much you generally like to spend and keep it within that price range. I find that kind of customer service more appealing and it kept me going back there.

I have used this place several times to get exhausts fixed on a few different vehicles over the past 10 years or so and I have always been quoted the lowest prices and I have always been very happy with the quality of the work done. I have also always been extremely happy with the customer service level. I have been in here a few times where the work ends up getting done professionally but I get charged less than first quoted, Great work!

I only went here for lunch yesterday for the first time, but I am already planning on becoming a regular customer.This is an award winning bakery with plenty to choose from. They have awesome award winning Artisan breads and sour doughs, but I have only tried their pies and pastry rolls. I had a chick pea roll and a potato pie and I am already thinking about going back for lunch today. The potato pie was one of the best, (if not the best), I have ever had, and the chick pea roll was unlike anything I had ever had from a bakery. The potato pie was huge and very filling. (Filled with light, creamy and fluffy potato mash.) The prices are quite competitive compared to most local bakeries in the area too. You might pay a little bit more, but not enough to hurt the hip pocket. I must say that the service was also fantastic, there were two girls at the counter and while one was getting my food out the pie warmer the other one had already rung up the amount on the cash register. (Performed like clockwork!) Very quick and efficient service, and done with a warm friendly smile!

Approximate cost: $4.00 (most pies or pasties)

Absolutely `world-class`. These caves have breath taking scenery and the tours are accompanied by extremely knowledgeable guides. Our guide was very funny and had a great sense of adventure. We went on the most expensive cave tour and the caves that we saw were extraordinary in their own right. The cave tour went for about an hour and a half and it gave us a bit of a workout. You get to see the most amazing crystal clear waters imaginable. In fact, they are so clear that you cannot even tell it is not a mirror reflection you are looking at, or tell how deep they really are. (It is quite mind altering really.) Absolutely a must see attraction if you are heading to the Blue Mountains.

Wow, this place made me feel like a kid again! (and I do not say that lightly at all.) The things you can do at this place do not compare to any attraction I have ever been to in my life and I have done a lot of crazy things, (from skydiving to bungy jumping), but I think this place was one of the most memorable attractions I have ever been to. The thing that stands out the most is the amazing `360 degree swing` that turns you into a superhuman! You get strapped into a giant robotic jump suit and with a little enthusiasm from the participant you can swing 360 degrees upside down and keep swinging round and round. woooo hooooo! This place has everything for the science geeks, big kids, little kids, medium size kids, (those who missed out on being a kid), and even the pet cat! (Ok , maybe not the pet cat, but you know what I mean.) The food in the cafe was awesome and extremely well priced and well to be honest, pretty much everything here was awesome. After we had spent several hours dizzying over the endless attractions they offer, doing virtual reality puzzles, `life size` brain teasers, tackling the huge 180 degree vertical slide and marveling over 3D wizardry, we got stuck in the gift shop for about an hour looking for cool things to buy. (The biggest problem I had at this place was not being able to put the entire science centre in my pocket and take it home with me!)

I went on a trip to the Blue mountains with a group of friends not long ago and on the way home we drove through Canberra to visit the Science centre there. We stayed in Canberra overnight and a group of us went out for dinner. We were told about this place by a friend of ours who lives there locally and we were very surprised by the `authentic` Tex-Mex style. This place has excellent Mexican food at excellent prices. I ordered the nachos with Guerrero grilled chicken and it was by far the best nachos I had ever had, (and I absolutely love nachos.) It had the perfect amount of dripping melted cheese over awesomely crunchy corn chips, with a huge amount of the chicken Guerrero, and it also had authentic black beans mixed in with the salsa. Ohhhh yummm! The only negative thing I can say about this place is that it sucks there isn`t one in Adelaide!!!

Approximate cost: $11.50

I have very happy with this survey company. I have been a member for about 6 weeks now and have already been sent out a $20 gift card and I am almost due for another one. Good quality surveys and decent rewards available.

A friend and I ate here just the other day before heading down the road to visit the `Old Tailem town` attraction. Great selection of `good old Aussie tucker` to choose from on the menu. (Especially for a service station restaurant.) The person who served us was extremely friendly and the food did not take very long to be prepared. My friend and I both ordered beef burgers, (mine was with the lot), and it was really good. I did ask for a beef burger with the lot with no bacon and the lady who took my order asked if I wanted pineapple free of charge to replace the bacon. I was very happy with that as most places would actually have charged extra and not even offered it to begin with. Nice and clean facilities with lots of window space to soak up the sunshine.

I just visited this place the other day with a good friend of mine and we were both pleasantly surprised by the authenticity of the exhibits. We were both greeted at the front door by a lovely volunteer worker who was very passionate about the place and you could tell it was very close to her heart. Old Tailem town is a huge attraction with many things to see. (You could easily spend about 4 hours here having a proper look around.) It brought back some great memories of a `by-gone` era here in South Australia and I found a lot of things to reminisce over that reminded me of the old fashioned things that my grandma and grandpa used to own. (The only negative thing I could really say about this place is that there were a few exhibits that I wish we could have gone into, for example - the tram.) Although, you could go into most of them and this is quite a rarity these days. Overall, heaps of wonderful displays to look at and quite well done. My friend had read some online reviews before we had decided to go here and he felt that a lot of people were quite judgmental regarding the up-keep of the exhibits. i genuinely think people were missing the point of what this place is all about, as it is meant to be an `old abandoned ghost town`, and the charisma of the attraction left you believing that it was just that.
