Gorgeous place! We spotted it when we went to the nightclub above it on Sat night, and came back for lunch the next day. Arriving, we found the waiter who looked after us to be attentive and lovely. I had Fettucini Alla Tony at $20, and my partner got the Mudcrab Thermadore at $45.

Both of our meals were exceptional! Delicious, fresh, and HUGE portions.

Do NOT walk past here without eating!

Approximate cost: $40

We came here for a private function on Saturday night and loved it. We were in the private function room up top. We had an open bar and finger food. The bar and service staff were good. Service staff had no problem asking the chef about ingredients for me.

At about 10pm, the next level down became a club, and there was a fashion parade there, then a live music act, and, finally, a REALLY good DJ.

We don't know about costs as our event was fully paid for.

This review is for Magical Rice, Cannon Hill QLD

Magical Rice offers a variety of Asian meals at good prices. We grabbed lunch here the other day. I got two California Sushi Rolls, which, at $2.50ea were reasonably priced and delicious. My other half bought some spring rolls and loved them. The rice dishes we saw being served up were gigantic!!!

They appear to be fairly popular but the wait time is only a couple of minutes. Highly recommend to sushi fans!

Approximate cost: $5 for 2 rolls

This review is for Hotel Club

verified email - 04 Sep 2013

We have only just recently discovered HotelClub, and have booked, in the last week, twice through them. One for ourselves and a weekend away for our daughter for her birthday.

The 'credits' idea is good, but useless unless you book through them often, which we won't, as other sites like wotif offer cheaper prices on most of the hotels/motels featured.

That being said, we are happy with what we got for our money for our daughter. Lovely hotel and a good discount.

Approximate cost: $151pn for exec spa suite in 4.5 star hotel!

This review is for The Sandringham Hotel, Sandringham VIC

This is a popular pub on a Friday afternoon. The bar and betting area are busy with post-work drinks. Bar staff are polite and efficient and prices are the same as other pubs.

We wandered through to the bistro and decided to have a quick meal while we were there. We ordered a starter of garlic bread to share, then I got fish and chips and my partner got a steak. Service was slow, but it was pretty busy, so that might explain it. My fish was lovely, but the chips tasted of old oil and were soggy. My partner was satisfied but not impressed with her meal.
All in all a fairly average experience.

Approximate cost: $20

This review is for The Confectionery & Party Shop Bendigo, Kangaroo Flat VIC

My partner and I are turning 40 and 50 this year, respectively, and have been hunting down supplies for our '90th' birthday party. This business has a massive range of celebratory balloons for all occasions, including what we were looking for. They can be bought singly, in packs, or pre- inflated. They also have a decent range of other party pruducts like table decorations, invitations etc.

We decided against purchasing from there SOLELY because they are more expensive than another place we saw.

We went here for dinner the Friday before we came on holidays. It was an all you can eat buffet. They have everything from salads, wontons, spring rolls, and their sweet and sour dishes are to die for. Delicious desserts are a bonus. This is a great restaurant for the entire family, as everyone's favourites are included. As well as the sweet and sour dishes, I recommend the honey chicken, singapore noodles and king prawns. Yummy!

Approximate cost: $15 pp

This review is for Traditional Hot Jam Donuts, Kangaroo Flat VIC

verified email - 03 Sep 2013

Best hot jam doughnuts in Bgo! Located in the car park next to the lake, the van is in a great location for you to pull over, grab a couple of doughnuts and a drink, and sit by the water.
Hot, fresh, delicious.......yummo! What's better is, the more you buy, the cheaper the price! Locals know how good they are, so they are usually pretty busy, but there is never a long wait

Approximate cost: $1.40

This review is for MSY Computers, Slacks Creek QLD

MSY is THE cheapest place to buy anything you may need for your computer. We bought a universal charger and mouse from here today, and paid just under $50. Their external hard drives are cheap too - from about $40.

Staff are experts in the computer field and make sure you are buying the right product for your system.

This review is for Val's Barber Shop, Marsden QLD

Val is brilliant! We are up here on holidays for a week and I went back to her today to get my hair cut. $12 and she have me THE most awesome fauxhawk! It's the old 'take a number and wait in line' system, but there were three hairdressers working so the wait was only about 10 minutes.

Approximate cost: $12
