Really nice staff, ran here because I needed a coffe. Unfortunately the coffee was burnt and the milk taste was very strong and unpleasant. It wasn't the worst coffee but I wouldnt buy a large, as the milk to coffee ratio there is too large.

Approximate cost: $4.50

I like that these guys are open late at night with full menu options.
Dumplings are quite good, I substitute the normal rice for fried rice and its a lot nicer, their bbq meats look amazing hanging in The window, but are hit and miss to whether they'll be dry or not. I haven't had problems with the prom but the duck is dry.

It's an easy option to tame late night cravings

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Oasis Bakery - Middle Eastern, Murrumbeena VIC

This place is both a Middle Eastern grocer with so much choice your head blows off. And also a wonderful cafe for both sweet and savoury food inspired by the beautiful ingredients and flavours of that region.

I absalutely love the oasis bakery, their shwarmas and plates are delicious, they also change up certain foods so there's always something new to try.
The baklavas are some of the best I've tasted, and service is fast with many tables to pick from,quite busy on a regular basis as they are wonderful, but I've always had a seat.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Coco Lounge, Glen Waverley VIC

I had my 21st function in their upstairs bar. The venue was stunning featuring an indoor and outdoor area, low dimmed lights and seating around.

I enjoyed my night because I refused to let anything get me down, unfortunately though the bartenders didn't seem confident and weren't helpful with suggestions or were very friendly, especially to me as a birthday girl.

I ordered a meal and got something different,
The prices for food were quite expensive, but the quality was delicious.

There was also a lot of miscommunication between the manager and I resulting in my card being charged more than it should have, and my bar tab claiming to be over when it still had $100+ left on it.

This review is for Cameo Cinema, Belgrave VIC

Really lovely atmosphere from when you first enter. They feature your new realise movies plus a few others that are more For your out of the ordinary movie goers.

Much lower prices than village and Hoyts, and gives you a chance to check out belgraves boutique shops and restaurants while you wait.

The seats are comfortable and intimate, and let you escape the big crowds.

Approximate cost: $12

This review is for Theobroma Chocolate Lounge, Wantirna South VIC

I loooove their waffles!! Delicious, I get them with chocolate and strawberries, and they are never stingy on these. The hot chocolate is loaded with real chocolate and tastes Devine.

The iced coffee is also really appealing, with sugar on the side and a dollar of ice cream for sweetness.

I had their hash browns as well which while they were your average hash browns they made sure to ring them out on a seperate plate from my waffles to respect that sweet and savoury don't need to mix.

This review is for Khazana Contemporary Indian Cuisine, Wantirna VIC

I usually order naan bread to slurp my curry up, khazana is one of the few (surprisingly) Indian restaurants that offer good soft fluffy and generous servings of bread.

The meals are about $15 each with plenty enough in one bowl. I have gone a couple of times now, their dhal curry is my favourite, and the papadums they have complimentary on the tables are nice to tie you over until food comes out.

Wih two levels it never really gets too busy, so always able to get a table.

This review is for Metro Cinemas Boronia, Boronia VIC

The small cinemas and lack of crowd are very pleasing, it's nice to get away from the big cinema complexes.

Popcorn is less buttery so tastes delicious. Still full range of snacks available, with combo deals.
Cheaper prices for the same movies also bonus!

Approximate cost: $10

This review is for PappaRich, Glen Waverley VIC

We ordered a vindaloo and bread with three dips. The naan tht came out was delicious and the vindaloo was a bit plain for a restaurant (quality you could make at home)

I really like their choice of funky drinks, even though I'm not adventurous enough to purchase them
The staff are friendly, and the self service in ordering is a clever way to process orders quickly.

But I found that he bread and dips became my only choice as everything else looked unappealing or pricey for the portion size.

This review is for Knox City Library, Wantirna VIC

verified email - 10 Feb 2016

The computer system doesn't always recognise what you're searching for. But the staff can usually help look up books. Knox library shares its book range with several other libraries in the area, and reserving and sending over a book is easy and usually done in a week.

They have an online website where you can do this all at home, and they notify you when the book arrives.

They have new scanner systems which are cool and easy to borrow embarrassing help books!
