This review is for UNICO Hair, Melbourne VIC

verified email - 23 Feb 2012

Well I went there to get a haircut and color my regrowth
I went twice as I got a voucher from deals.com.au
The first time I went there everything was wow though they can't give me the red color that I want I didn't mind that much. I went t other salon like 3 months after my visit to unico hair to have my hair dyed red, I paid $200 for that but before the stylist did anything on me she told me the chemical that was used on your hair was very harsh, who did this to you! And then I explained everything and the stylist was very concern as well with the hair dye result because part of my hair that got colored in unico hair has died and can no longer absorbs color
I wasted $200 because the chemical that used in unico hair salon

Went there for the second time only for the haircut (to used up my voucher anyway) and I was tempted to give them a second chance to color my regrowth and man how I regret it. When the hair dye is placed on my scalp my throat was itchy from the smell and I kept coughing. The assistant was kind enough to ask me whether I'm okay

Then after I went home my scalp was itchy and painful. The next day I realized that I got small bumps growing all over my scalp it was itchy as hell and painful at the same time. I contacted them through their Facebook page (private message and not on their wall). I was only asking them what can I do with these small bumps I even said in very satisfied with their customer service

One week and still get no response, regretfully I need to take back my words on how good their customer service is and I am 100% sure will never go back to this salon again even though for free rather than I become stressful from the small bumps and no one take consequence of that

Approximate cost: $69

with around $12 dollar and less you can already have a full portion of nice thai foods here. The serving is huge as i always ended up asking for containers to bring home my leftovers.
i first ate here with my friend, the spicy fried rice with chicken (not the one with basil), and i was blown because YAY finally i found one more cheap yet tasty place to eat

they do very nice fried rice, not with the soup though, i ate the soup twice, tom yum and nother is also tom yujm but the clear one. Both dont really have a good kick on my tastebuds. But, their noodles, salads, fried rices, and stir fry with rice are very recommended if you are after the taste and the price,

but if you are simply looking for huge huge portion and don't really care about the price, the soup come in generous serving with a bowl of steamed rice

overall, this is also one of my favourites to go for a cheap nice thai foods :)

Approximate cost: $12

This review is for Le Cirque Fine Foods, Docklands VIC

went there the first time because i was looking for a simple breakfast around the house. Then, my friends took me there as he aware of my love for French stuff (they said if weed is grown in France i would smoke it voluntarily and happily).

So, this cafe is tucked in the Harbour town. Nicely decorated with an atmosphere that surely inviting. when we came, it was pretty occupied but we managed to get a table for four. they do nice coffees and also options for dessert are quite big
(Oh,i have yet to take a bite of those scones and those very pretty cupcakes)

we ordered the omellete with ham, calamari salad, omellette with spinach (custom order coz my friend doesnt eat pork and their Blue spider (if im not mistaken, but it's the blue colored milkshake)

they were all yumm, the omellete is soo good, so cheesy :D. and my bf ordered the blue spider twice.

Second time i come with my bro and his gf, we ordered the same thing only with the arancini and cheese balls. Must i say we were all needed to unbutton our shirt a bit after we finished eating. the Arancini balls were nice and it was complimented with a nice, i suppose homemade, tomato sauce.

overall we all love the foods and the drinks but would not order the fried cheese ball anymore, the cheesiness was a too rich to handle :/

This review is for Don Don Japanese Restaurant, Melbourne VIC

Taste : Terrific
Price : Unbeatable
Service : Super duper quick

i always go to Don Don when i run out of money yet still have a bit more than to live on Indomie. there are only a few items on the menu, yet they are all nice and taste and very fulfilling !. the bento box, i must say is what i love the most about Don Don, with $10 (i think it's less than $10, forgot already =.=) you get chicken, beef, salad, fruit, rice and when you finished your lunch you can feel your stomach is fully loaded :)

Approximate cost: $10

This review is for Es Teler 77, Melbourne VIC

went there with my bf, we both indonesian and we didnt quite like the taste. we ordered 3 items : nasi goreng petai (fried rice with bitter beans), mi goreng terasi (fried noodles with fermented shrimp paste), and nasi goreng kambing (fried rice with goat meat).

Must i say their dishes don't live up to the ones in Indonesia (well, it's understandable since it's quite difficult to find fresh spices here). but the thing that really bothers me is the taste, and how could their fried noodle was so mushy :(.

for me, i never go back, but not a few my friends who love to eat there. Maybe i was only unfortunate or maybe they have special dishes that blown my friend away

P.S the soup that they serve in a small bowl along with anything you order, is a treat for MSG lover, and it's not supposed to be eaten with fried rice or fried noodle. Indonesian dont mix fried rice or fried noodles with soup (Just to clarify)

This review is for Menya Ramen, Melbourne VIC

verified email - 25 Jul 2011

Gyutandon, the most pricey dish on the menu, used to be 9 dollars 5 years ago
now the price has climbed up to $11.50 (why would they do this? T.T). The dish itself is very satisfying, i don't know how did they make ox tongue in a very simple way like that yet delish !!

but, if you want to look for an authentic Japanese Ramen, this place is not the right place to go, because their ramen is Chinese style (you can see that the employees are all Chinese). It's still good but not Japanese style :), but if you like Chinese noodle then you'll like it :)

the service is very fast, so if you want a quick fix for lunch, just pop into the store, order and u'll get in like 5 mins (Not as fast as DonDon though.)

Approximate cost: $11.50

This review is for Ling Nam Restaurant, Melbourne VIC

verified email - 22 Jul 2011

fully enjoyable !!
good food, good service (one of the waiters can crack up a joke, which is rare to be found in other chinese restaurant ). Compared to other chinese restaurant, i can say Ling Nam gives the best customer service, it is not a restaurant when u get the bill while you are still eating, they keep refilling your tea and make sure you have enough space in your table to eat.

Once, my sister was moving plates around table, and almost drop a hot tea on my section of the table, and the waiter saw it and gave took the cup right away and said "let me do for you"

man, was i touched !! (there is apparently a Chinese restaurant with good customer service). It has became out most favourite destination for chinese food fix.

their Crab in XO sauce with noodles is SUPERB, all the seafood are fresh :)

i went there with 3 friends, all of us were fully satisfied with both their service and their foods. prices are reasonable, a lot of drinks options, they even have the professional in field if u want to have any suggestions about sake. The waitresses have good customer service, make sure you book in advance if you are going for dinner :)

Dessert : mochi dusted with green tea is a MUST

This review is for MICM Property, Southbank VIC

verified email - 22 Jul 2011

I must say, i went to a lot of MICM and they are all the same quality, they have Great customer services and great apartment to offer
they are all also very helpful and kind, any enquiries that you have, they reply ASAP and they are very honest, even to admit what they are unaware of

eg : once i asked when is the 3 bedroom apartment will be available (around Parliament), the agent told me, "well, it's on 25 July as written on the agreement, but in case the occupier want to extend or we need to clean the house etc it might be available at later date, we still don't know"

they also help you to get cleaner and connect your electricity, internet, etc.
My friend was actually the one who recommended me to MICM and i never regret it :)

Only, i don't know why students must have cleaner every month, maybe they think us students party animal, but overall i am satisfied with their service
