I bought two of these bottles to use instead of our plastic bottles, at first I thought it would be a pain to remember to use it etc but now I don't use any other bottle. They come in awesome colours, mine is a vibrant purple but I also put a cover on it to keep the water cooler. I also got the cover/strap attachment from them plus the flip lid so that it's easier to open and drink with 1 hand etc rather than having to unscrew the lid all the time. I highly recommend them, there is no weird taste that I found with other bottles and of course much better than plastic. At about $17 for the bottle (I got 750ml), they aren't even expensive...

Approximate cost: $17

This review is for Noodler's Noodle Bar, South Lake WA

I love this noodle place, I think they are really yummy, fresh ingredients. My fav dish is the hot & spicy noodle box. They always accommodate requests ie I get less noodles and more vege and it's never a hassle for them. I find their noodles much better than competitors so I don't mind paying that bit extra - it's $11.90, there is lots in there for that price but you can get cheaper elsewhere. I get noodles from here often for lunch. Their pad thai is also really nice

Approximate cost: $11.90

This review is for Hans Cafe, Rockingham WA

I have never eaten at Han's before but went with a friend who really likes it. We were served within minutes of sitting down which was really nice, we had chicken wings & spring rolls for starters, both were nice but the spring rolls were delicious, probably close to being my fav spring rolls! I had the chilli chicken for main which again was nice, bit saucy but really decent and large size for the price! The mains came out about 4-5 mins after the starters so basically we ate it all together, we didn't mind this but some people probably prefer one then the other. I'd eat here again for a cheap but nice meal followed up by some shopping at Rocko city!

This review is for Leap Frogs Cafe, Wanneroo WA

The best thing about this cafe is certainly the setting/atmosphere. It's really lovely with the pond right there and the tropical feel it has to it. We went there for dinner last night (6 of us) and had a nice time. My meal was ok, I had the scotch fillet steak ($36) which was well done but not too tough, hubby had the reef and beef and asked for rare to medium steak but his came out well done as well so that was a shame as he hates well done steak. The others on the table all seemed to enjoy their meals but no-one really raved about it. The pizzas looked awesome (woodfired pizza) but I just didn't feel like pizza. Again, service was good but nothing I would rave about, some of the drinks took a while to come out, longer than you'd normally expect but they seemed pretty busy.

Approximate cost: $30

This review is for Brushfoot Cafe, Success WA

We went to this little local cafe for breakfast and it was really lovely. The cafe is only small but is still roomy inside, has beautiful large windows and comfy seats/couches in the area down the side. The staff were genuinely friendly and service was quick. The food was yummy, I had pancakes with fresh strawberries and maple syrup and hubby had a big breaky. His eggs were cooked perfectly and everything wasn't dripping in oil as is common at lots of places! My pancakes were nice and fluffy and the strawberries were fresh. Hot chocolate was yummy and not too strong. Prices were reasonable for a cafe breakfast and worth it considering the service, convenient location etc. We will certainly eat here again, we are thinking or trying the dinner menu, they had a lamb shank and saffron rice special which I like the look of....

This review is for Sabor Ice Cream, Hammond Park WA

verified email - 18 Jan 2013

My husband took me here as we live close by and came across it on our way home one day. We LOVED their ice-cream and tried nearly every one before purchasing way more than was necessary. My fav was the cookies and cream and the ferrero rochere ice-cream oh and the coffee, argh the list goes on. It wasn't a cheap exercise but I will pay anything for yummy ice cream. We got waffle cones and also some tubs to take home with us. It has only opened recently and I hope it stays around - I go back here everytime I want to treat myself and highly recommend to anyone in the area. The do list other stuff they do ie coffee but I haven't tried it yet, I think there was also home made gelato which was preservative free etc but you'd have to call or check it out for yourself

I can never go past this place without at least drooling over their icecream selection. I think the price is pretty average for an ice cream parlour, their flavours are great and you always get served straight away as they aren't busy. Yum Yum, I much prefer this ice cream to a drum stick or something!

This review is for Cafe On Discovery, Bibra Lake WA

verified email - 18 Jan 2013

This is a nice little cafe in the busy business area in Bibra Lake, just near where I work. It gets super busy at lunch time because of all the businesses in the area but I feel they handle the influx really well and I try to go outside 'peak' times. They have tables and chairs so you can sit down if you want but I prefer to get takeaway. You can get freshly made cafe food ie sandwhiches, rolls etc plus other stuff like your chips and standard fast food. Prices are on par with every other fast-food cafe type place in the area, staff are friendly enough, I go back all the time

Have always loved this website as with many products they are the cheapest on the market, not always but a large majority of the time. My items are always delivered within a few days and I love the email notifications to tell me what's on special etc. They are also helpful with their online advice, for example I can tell them I want to spend $xx and what's the best knife set I can get for this and I am given a few suggestions to choose from. I always check this site before setting foot in any store to buy.

This review is for Pet City, Cockburn Central WA

verified email - 18 Jan 2013

I have shopped at all the pet stores in this area and this is probably my least favourite, it's not terrible or anything I just feel it could be improved. The staff were not very helpful when I was asking about the different kinds of wet dog food, I ended up putting back my purchase as I wasn't confident in what they were saying etc. I would still buy from here if the price were right but it's certainly not my first choice.
