Stunning decor is the first thing that you appreciate at Laruche. Luxurious furniture and decadent lights. The bar staff are very well trained. I love watching them mix up cocktails from the extensive list. A second bar is location upstairs, with more lounge space. A lovely night out with a sophisticated crowd.

This review is for 2 Ballerinas, Alderley QLD

verified email - 19 Oct 2009

2 Ballerinas is run by two ex- dancers of the Queensland Ballet Company. Their classes are specifically designed to accommodate both adults that have never danced before and people who have a dance background and want to pick it up again. Ballet class is very relaxed and taken by teachers with a huge amount of knowledge and expertise. Lovely atmosphere. A joy to dance again for fun and fitness.

Good production quality and service. I have used their videoing services a few times and find that they are very reliable. Bryan is a genuine guy who takes the time to produce a quality video. Also great for photography.

This review is for O'Brien Accountants, Paddington QLD

I went for a half hour free initial consultation to speak with an accountant. They were extremely helpful and answered all my questions thoroughly. I was there for 1.5 hours and was still not charged for their time. Will definitely keep using O'Brien Accountants.

This review is for Custom's House Restaurant, Brisbane QLD

I was very disappointed with my experience at Custom's House. Although the location and view are spectacular, the food and service were well below par. The staff, who are hospitality students from Queensland Uni, seemed uninterested and were not very helpful. The building itself is stunning. I have heard good reports from friends but my experience was unfortunately not impressive.

This review is for Punjabi Palace Restaurant and Take Away, South Brisbane QLD

verified email - 26 Jul 2009

A staple Indian restaurant that's great for a group of friends. Delicious food, BYO wine and a good location make Punjabi Palace a popular choice. For larger groups book ahead on the weekend as it gets very busy. The toilet is out the back, past the kitchen and via an outdoor area, a little hard to find at first.

This review is for The Gunshop Cafe, West End QLD

It's worth the effort on a weekend to brave the crowds and score a table for breakfast. Always delicious and fresh. I've had some of the best scrambled eggs here, served with pesto and lemon wedges. Although famous for their breakfasts, dinner is just as satisfying and less crowded.

Just what I need - a site that searches the web for the best price on books and DVDs. Just search for a book or DVD title and it will automatically list online stores and their prices, including postage, in Australian dollars. So simple and quick. It's on my favourites list now.

This review is for Brett's Wharf, Hamilton QLD

This is a restaurant that I had been wanting to try for a while and I was not disappointed. Surprisingly it's BYO as well as licensed. The location is beautiful, right on the river. It almost feels like you're on a boat. The staff were very professional and helpful. Lovely fresh seafood and modern aust fare at very reasonable prices. The perfect place to take visitors. I'm looking forward to dining here again soon.

The staff at Rixon Hair are very friendly and professional. They take the time to talk about your hair and always have up to date styling and coloring ideas. They've won many awards, which puts your mind at ease. Great location in the city. Book ahead as they're often very busy.
