After having searched numerous kitchen companies for quotes and quality of kitchens I went to this place on a recommendation of a builder. There I spoke to the owner Eric who was very accommodating and listened in my kitchen instead of being told what I could have from some of the other makers. We sat down for an hour of discussions and then he offered to come out and re measure everything even thou I had accurate measurements. Once that was done he went back and had plans drawn up for our approval. Once made they were delivered and fitted to my satisfaction. As usual one or pieces unfortunately were not up to scratch and they were immediately returned and remade and replaced. I am very happy with the result and do fully recommend this company, Did I mention that they were two thousand dollars cheaper than the cheapest quote I had. I will also mention I recommended a work collegue go and see them and they received a quote twelve thousand dollars cheaper than the quote they had from elsewhere for the exact same kitchen plan, I think that that says a lot for this cabinet maker

Yes I know that I have already written a piece on this business but that was awhile ago. Well today I returned to this business with my wife and bought some of the little master pieces in chocolate. After we had purchased a selection of the delicate delectable we went home and tried a few of them. The quality has not changed one "iota" in other words it has remained the same beautiful quality and smooth taste as when I first purchased way back in 2011 in fact way back then I think I have under rated the chocolates. The cost of the individual pieces certainly justifies the cost.

Went there with a work collegue for a spot of dinner on her recommendation. Well the place is small to say the least. The tow men behind the counter appeared not to know what they were doing but we ordered anyway. A souvlaki each. After about fifteen minutes of waiting we finally got our souvlakis even thou they were cooking/rotating on the "spit" right infront of us. We decided to eat it there, now I am a reasonable sized person but in no way was I able to sit comfortably in the place at the 1950's style table and bench. definately not a place to eat in. The prices were in my opinion very pricey not a place to go back in a hurry to buy again

Approximate cost: $15.00

This review is for Cafe Del Mar, Carnegie VIC

Went to cafe Del Mar the other day after it has re opened and has been extended. My wife had the fish and chips and I had the lamb salad. We both enjoyed the meals and coffee. They now have a pizza section for eat in or take away. The pizza that I saw saw look tempting and will try soon. I have been told they are looking for a chef for night meals which they will open very soon and will be catering for late night meals late in the week possibly Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. It looks very refreshed with the new renovations. The satf are very accommodating and polite to us (we have been going there since its inception) and we have never had a bad or off meal

Approximate cost: $20.00

My wife and I went there today 1/3/2014 she has never been there. I have been there once before and my memry it was far better then. Today it was very disappointing to say the least. Some interavtive displays were broken, none of the outside steam engines working. It is a blight on the Victorian Govt where they could have shone on history and inventions. Sorry, I would never again to go there nor would I recommend.

Approximate cost: $10 entry each

Haven't been here bfore so my wife and I gave it a go. Part of the Quest hotels group. The restaurant was great really good food and service even if it is a little over priced. Table out on the balcony warm day but the balcony was hot do not sit near the glass panels on a wamr day look for shade. Good viwes of the harbour. Food was very tasty, oysters, seafood and steak what more do you need.... Yes, did I say a little overpriced take some more cash next time. Old style music excellent and easy to listen too.

Approximate cost: $30/35

Took my wife ther for her birthday. We both had the steak which was very tender and it didn't take much to cut. We started off with the tapas for two, just enough to wet the appitite for the main meal, we also had the chocolate cake with sorbet and strawberry sauce. of deserts but then it was my wifes birthday. We had a front table which fronted the main road and we could with a little effort watch the ocean looking past Brighton Yatch Club. Service was excellent.

Approximate cost: $25/30

I have been to Limore's before as a client in the restaurant but nevr had home delivery. I had ther hamburger and my wife had the snitzel and we both had chips. Well the meal arrive in about thirty minutes and it was disappointing. It wa the ame proportions that you would get in the restaurant (huge). As usual we struggled thru it but enjoyed it at the same time. Well done Limores. Will definately order home delivery again

This review is for Crust Gourmet Pizza Bar, Carnegie VIC

I have ordered from this business twice now. The pizzas are great and are not "sloppy" Great fillings and are fresh. Delivery is slow takes about an hour and we are close to their shop (3 minutes by car) , not good if they really want repeat business. If you want to eat at a reasonable time order early

Approximate cost: $15.00
