I LOVE this market. Really love the handmade goodies here. Have purchased a number of clothing and other handmade products. Love the quality. The stalls do change at times. Food wise, they have a bit of variety. Love the burger joint. Juice stall is awesome. The juice is so yummy. Good day out with kids too. They have the glassworks next door. Great day out for the family!

Came across this online store and am pleasantly surprised at the variety of modern cloth nappies and wet bags they stock.
Just purchased 3 wet bags, 1 is for baby wipes. I love the quality of Planet Wise wet bags. Especially the baby wipes bag.

Not a lot of places stock Planet Wise and even if other stores do stock them, they are more expensive!

Easy to use website and speedy delivery.

Went online to check their range and thought they had the newest Safe n sound maxi rider AHR easy adjust in stock in October as the site allows you to add the item to cart.

Even though it seemed like they had the item in stock on the website, I decided to pay them a visit so I can see the item in real life. Went to store and was told it hasn't been released in Australia yet and they are expecting the stock to be in around late Nov. So they were selling thing they didn't even have!

Ok, no worries, I'll leave my number and get them to call me when the stock comes in.

No one ever called. I called them in mid Dec 6 wks later and I was told they have them on the floor. Thanks for letting me know!

They are friendly on the phone, but no such much in store. I have been to the Fyshwick store a few times. No one bothered to acknowledge me.

Yes, they maybe a little cheaper than other places. But if you are after service, I'll go elsewhere

This review is for Jimmy's Place, Dickson ACT

Went there after Jimmys was recommended to us. Went there with kids and ordered a few dishes. One of the dishes wasn't what we ordered. So we told a waiter and the waiter went and spoke with the owner. Then he returned with the original waiter who took out order and said 'that's what you ordered'. My husband said to him and pointed to the menu, it was the one above it and told the waiter he made a mistake.

He denied the mistake and said 'maybe next time speak better and more clear'. Don't get me wrong, I am not rascist but a Chinese person telling an Aussie to speak clearly and denied their mistakes? We made sure we pointed to the menu and said the number just to be sure but he still made a mistake.

So needless to say, we weren't happy. They did correct the order but very reluctanly though.

Taste wise, so so, I have had better Chinese food in Canberra. Don't know what the fuss is about. Haven't been back since

This review is for Lets Play, Nicholls ACT

Went there yesterday to check the new playcentre out. Lots of natural light and quite open compared to Monkey Mania. Only thing I didn't like is that there is no gate for the littlies play area like Monkey Mania so with toddlers, they tend to wander off so you most keep on eyes on them at all times.

They do a once of membership fee $20, unlike Monkey Mania it's an annual fee. It entitles you to 10% off admission but no discount on food.

Talking about food, I reckon it's better food offered here comparing to Monkey Mania and they have vegetarian option too which is rare!

Party rooms are colourful and not run down. Equipment clean and well kept (maybe because it is new)

The best thing there for adults is that they have free WiFi! There is plenty of parking. And the good thing there is that it is not in a shopping complex so you are not tempted to shop while you are there.

We going to have my daughter's party there. Really looking forward to it!

Freshly made sushis in from of you. Good variety to choose from. Can be very expensive if you don't pay attention to the colours of the plate.

One of the better sushi trains out there. Quality is better than most. The taste, not bad. Not too authentic but not too bad.

Always long queues waiting. Worth a try though.

This review is for Dr Thomas Lee, Chatswood NSW

Dr Lee is fantastic! Before I moved from Sydney, I only go and see him. He is very thorough, extremely knowledgable, unlike most GPs out there. Great with kids!
Once I knew someone who was ill and went to several different GPs and could not find out what's wrong with him. Recommended him to see Dr Lee. Only one look from the Dr, Dr Lee knew he had Hep C. The test confirmed the suspected illness. He is amazing.

Only problem is that you must make appointment. There was once I called up and wanting to see him ( i had severe bronchitis) he said he could squeeze me in to see me. I still waited 3-4 hrs!

This review is for Iron Chef Chinese Seafood Restaurant, Cabramatta NSW

A very popluar yum cha restaurant. We used to drive 45min just to go there. Good chinese food is very hard to find. They do great Chinese dishes at a very decent price. They don't even charge for tea (which I think is a rort. $2 to $2.5 per person. It cost a family of 4 $10 just to sit down!)
You have to get there real early. Preferably before 10:30, if not, there will be a massive wait.

This review is for Spice India, Belconnen ACT

verified email - 21 Nov 2012

I always to go Spice if I have a craving for Indian food. They do authentic Indian food. I love their madras beef, oh so yummy.
When they say its spicy, it is spicy! Not the dumbed down version for caucasians.
I always see other Indians buying food from them, I even saw an Indian family getting 4 curries to take home. If Indians are going to to eat, they have to be good!

This review is for The Cuff Shop, Mitchelton QLD

verified email - 20 Nov 2012

Bought 7 pairs of $100. They always have deals on. Great value when you are looking at around $20 a pair in shops. A great variety to choose from and when I bought mine, they all came with individual boxes. So even if you don't need that many pair, you can give them away as presents.

Some are great quality, some are so-so. But hey, I am not complaining since the prices are so cheap.

Delivery wasn't the fastest though.

I will buy from them again. Not in the near future though as I only recently got 7 pairs :)
