This place is simply amazing. The Tori Mayonnaise is to die for. You generally need a booking to get in, but it is worth it. The sushi is very good, and if you get the boat, it is pretty cool. The service is good. We went there for a birthday, and they put the cake in the fridge for us, and kept it hidden until we wanted it revealed. We had a great experience, and the food is amazing.
Suntralis is a very nice bulk food store. They offer bulk grains, beans, nuts, candies, and flours of all different varieties. You can get things in any quantity you want, and it is all a pretty good value. I go there because I can't find black beans anywhere else, but they are good for all sorts of things as well. They have barley, millet, quinoa, chocolates, almonds, cashews, etc. just to name a few.
This is one of my favorite places to eat. You go in, and order a soup base, and then some things that you would like to go in your soup (I'd go with the sample meat platter and some sort of noodles). The meats are very thinly sliced and frozen, so when added to your broth will cook in a minute or two. The Udon noodles are my personal favorite, though the handmade noodles are very good as well. As you add things to your pot and it cooks down, the flavors concentrate, and it just tastes so amazing. There are a variety of vegetables that go around on a conveyor belt in front of you, that you can take off and add as your desire. The service is good, with them refilling your stock as needed, and getting your drinks as well. It is a very filling meal, and not too pricy. It's just such a unique experience, and a really great one!
Approximate cost: $15-25
We took our older car in for a service, since it hasn't been serviced for a while. They changed the oil and a couple lights, but kept it to an inspection for the most part. They gave us a list of all the repairs we will need, and told us what order they'd recommend. They gave us personal recommendations, and could just have easy conversation with them about our situation - i.e. whether it would be worth it to do the repairs or just get a different car. They are laid back, but also seem professional. Were very straight forward and said we would probably be alright to drive on it for another few months before doing repairs, so I really appreciated that they weren't trying to strong arm us into getting the repairs immediately, but just gave us an honest opinion.
Fernalee is our favorite place to go out to eat up "the hill". Feels like there aren't many options to go, but Fernalee is a good one. They have great banquets, which are a really good deal for takeaway, but give you a very nice experience in the restaurant as well. My favorite dish is the peppered steak. The garlic prawns are very good as well. Honey chicken is amazing as well. Can't really go wrong with anything they have. Never had a disappointing meal there.
Love going here for the chips. They give you a TON of chips for the price. Three adults shared the large size for dinner, and didn't have any room for what we were going to have as our main. The other food is pretty standard from what I've had of it, but I think it is worth it to go there just for the value of the chips.
Pizza & Pasta King is one of our favorite places to go for takeaway. We love the Yiros pizza. Hardly ever get another kind of pizza, because we can't get enough of the Yiros pizza. Never had a long wait from them, and it is always of a good standard. They know what they are doing and do it well.
Even though I live in Reynella and there are fruiterers closer, I always go here, because the value is so good. You get specials that are just amazing from time to time ($1/punnet for strawberries on day!), but they are just very reliably very affordable. Great quality. Only problem is it is a bit squishy in there, but it's well worth it for the price and quality.
I go here from time to time as it is close to the Coles, and they offer a decent service. They have some good deals out the front usually, and that is where I would tend to stick with them. Inside, the prices tend to be not quite as competitive, but the quality has always been very good. Never had any complaints about the quality.
Been here a couple times, and the service is always pretty bad. It's ok if someone is having a bad day, but all their employees should not be having a bad day every time you go in. I don't go back here, simply because of the poor service I've received.
