been here twice. find it next to subway ,its on the corner in the portside complex where the cruise ships come in. fabulous place, very light inside, clean and welcoming. i love how they greet and dismiss customers upon entry and exit. the wagyu sushi is different and very tasty,we try different things each time we went. staff are accomodating and attentive without being intrusive and easy to get there attention to ask for something to be cooked especially. love the dumplings and spring rolls and the prawn sushi.once finished we go around the corner for chocolate dessert at max brenners lol .movies dinner and dessert and a walk along the river very very nice,all in one complex nice night out and not that expensive for 2

frequented this place quite a few times,only once has it been substandard with the food. very busy no matter what time. views from the outside verandah are spectacular of the bushland and mountains . have taken quite a few photos sitting here after lunch. partner had pizza which was great, i tend to stick to seafood. we were seated fairly quickly and then no came to us for 20 min and others that walked in after us were being served so i went to the old guy tha towns or runs the place to ask what was happening with us. he was a bit blunt and rude but i let it go. our order waqs taken in a few minutes and then nothing for another half hour. only time its ever happened. the seafood is beautiful and abundant,the servings are large so be starving when you go there. ,lots of little craft shops along the main street after you have had lunch. place is clean and open, vast menu and we will frequent it on day trips on weekends .one off day isnt putting us off :P

Approximate cost: $15-30

a friend and i visited this store this week after the opening. what a bargain place! everything no matter what it is ,is $2.80.
kitchenware,bathroom,stationary,everything is korean or japanese items. we had so much fun before closing finding all sorts of different items. ceramic cups, baskets,laundry items,unusual items . colour co ordinated kitchenware. easy to keep tabs on your bill with everything being same price. place is bright purple and very welcoming .not sure if the purple balloons over entrance will stay though but its fun.im definitely making a return trip with a full a fuller wallet.fun purple shopping trolley to drag behind you instead of pushing infront . i ended up with a few presents and some novelties and a few spray bottles i needed. every aisle is like "oh look at this"

This place is such a treat! Rather expensive but they are all hand made and have the most delicious flavours. They all look so good. The place is open 7 days and have fudges, truffles and pralines. Its hidden away down the end of the mall but go for a walk and you wont regret it. Every time i go there i end up buying about $30 ,hard to share with family. Love the fruit flavour chocolates like the mandarin. The endless flavours of fudge are great, i personally like the jaffa. Will be back again and again when i save enough money

Visited here a few times when on school hols with my kids. Was rather impressed. Small place,seats outside,very quiet,but the hamburgers and the fish were ever so nice. Little greasy but far from detracting from the taste. We found the place by accident driving somewhere else over that way for lunch and ended up trying this place. Lady behind the counter was friendly. We sat outside to eat and was really enjoyable

The only butcher i now go to. We are on a strict budget so therefore can never afford porterhouse or free range meat but at super butcher i can. The meats are so nice ,juicy and tender, whatever moisture infused pork is its delectable. Trying so much more meat from here than i can never afford from the supermarkets. They also have added veg and pantry items. The guys will cut your bigger slabs of meat any way you want for you. So many types of sausages though im leaving the cheese and vegemite ones alone, yuk to vegemite ! Herb sausages, thai all sorts of things. As molly would say " do yourselves a favour" and go have a look. They have 5 stores dotted all over so google and see whats close to you

Very impressed with this little hideaway fish and chip cafe. Its back yard tables are set along the lakes and whilst eating you are surrounded by water, wild life, watch the ducks,very serene ,or take a blanket and go sit under the trees by the lake to eat, lovely. The food is tasty and not greasy,the seafood basket is very filling. They have some different drinks which os good rather than the usual cokes and fantas, juices and waters are unusual as well. This is a must to find when in mapleton or take a little day trip. You wont be sorry. On the other side of the lake the kids can play on the. Equipment whilst you sit and watch them or walk over the little island bridge to reach the other side of the lake. Everything looks great on the menu,yeah we sticky beak at other peoples plates lol. Sit out back or go sit by the water .rices are very reasonable

cant wait to do this again. took my kids twice once to see turtles and the following january to see the hatchlings
you pre book at the info centre in bundy and show up at about 7pm or before, be prepared for a wait though our first time didnt happen till 1 am and we were in group 4,just depends on when the turtles show up, we brought sleeping bags ,snacks and drinks as there was nothing there, think the 2nd time there were food vans out in the car park set up. truely amazing experience the staff involve you in and especially the kids,they are allowed to move the eggs with the staff and stand and make a parade line down the beach for when the mother has laid her eggs and enters the water again. such an awesome experience,none of us have forgotten, the hatchlings program is much the same , walk along the beach in the night sometimes with a torch to watch the tiny magical creatures make it safely down the sand to the water, you an camp close to mon repo or the caravan park. costs are cheap 10 + for adults or more for families but so well worth while, the morning after we actually saw another turtle on the beach laying her eggs in day time was extraordinary

Approximate cost: $5-11
