We had the best lentil burger ever - at only $10! It was huge and delicious. An intimate dining area and an inexpensive menu. Fairly limited (vegetarian only) but incredibly delicious and well-done. Service was really friendly. A wonderful experience.

Approximate cost: $15

THE BEST turkish food in Brisbane - this is authentic and well prepared. The chefs have come staight from Turkey and know their stuff. Real char-grilled kebabs. The decor is wonderful and the host is genuinely welcoming.

Approximate cost: $25.00

My car was taken down there when it stopped driving. It cost me over $4000 and three weeks. When I finally got it back, it was leaking water - they had forgotten to screw something back on! Then it kept overheating - another one of their 'mistakes'. The engine still had a rattle and when I told the owner, I was told that I was only a woman, had no idea and was probably imagining it. Two weeks later, it died completely in peak hour traffic - turns out that they had never fixed the head (which was the original problem!) and if I wanted it done, it would cost me ANOTHER $5000! Shoddy workmanship and bad attitude - never ever again.

I had to sell my $35000 car for scrap metal and buy a new one.

Approximate cost: $5000

A great haircut at a great price. Very laid back salon, friendly staff but the best thing is that the owner/hairdresser is an amazing cutter - she knows how to cut and always makes you look fabulous.

Approximate cost: $10 - 100
