This review is for The Emperor's Choice, Sydney NSW

verified email - 25 Jan 2013

My colleagues and I went to Emperor's Choice for yum cha lunch on a weekday. We got a table close to the wall so the area was quieter so we could talk. Dim sims are juicy and delicious but the size seemed to be slightly less and small. We ordered some fried noodles, prawn dumplings, spinach dumplings, pork buns etc. All food are hot and fresh. Great service from the staff who refilled our tea pot quickly before we gestured them to come over when we ran out of tea. However, the price for the dim sims are relatively more expensive when comparing to other chinese restaurants that offers yum cha in the city. It was a good experience in overall.

My family and I joined a 6-day tour to New Zealand via Charming Travel. The process of booking the tour was easy and hassle-free. Tickets and itineraraies were issued once tour fees were transferred electronically. All queries were dealt with promptly. Good itinerary with a great tour guide who was experienced and knowledgeable as well. The accomodation we stayed in were quite good, being some areas were remote area. Most of the meals were included within the tour package so we didn't need to pay much extra. We had lots of fun on our tour.

This review is for MoS Cafe, Sydney NSW

verified email - 24 Jan 2013

My friends and I went to Mos Café for dinner and we were given a table outside. The atmosphere was quite nice and romantic with heat lights in the dark etc. We had a coupon deal so were allowed to order any food and drinks from the menu up to $200 between the 4 of us. We ordered some entrees to share including salad of grilled haloumi with green beans, asparagus, baby beets & macadamia dressing and salt and pepper soft shell crab; followed by main meals - lamb shanks, seared tuna and the steak was tender and juicy and the chilli prawns linguine was delicious. And then with coffee and tea with desserts to share to finish the whole night off. We were so full! We ended up having to pay an extra $30 on top in total. The service and the meals were great, and we will be back. The restaurant was quite packed, so it would be better to make a booking in advance.

This review is for Juju Expresso, Sydney NSW

verified email - 24 Jan 2013

I buy my daily coffee a few times a week from JuJu Expresso. Their coffee is hot, smells good and tastes good! The staff behind the coffee counter are friendly and enthusiastic which makes me feel good about the day. I usually buy their freshly baked muffins too. But they have a cheap deal if you buy a coffee with a toast. There is always a queue for the coffee in the morning. My company orders catering for morning/ afternoon teas and trainings from them as well. The lemon and lime tarts, pastries and fruits pieces are fresh and delicious. Highly recommended hidden little gem in the City CBD.

This review is for Searock Fish Cafe, Sydney NSW

verified email - 24 Jan 2013

I had a quick lunch at the Searock Grill - comfortable restaurant and nice view looking over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. I ordered a chicken salad and my colleague ordered a BBQ chicken pizza. They were both delicious and quite filling, even the pizza base was those thin ones. Lots of toppings on the pizza too! The wait staff were professional and friendly. Meals were priced reasonably and the service was great too!

Approximate cost: $20

This review is for Settlement On Quay, Sydney NSW

verified email - 23 Jan 2013

My colleague and I went to Settlement On Quay for lunch and it was my first time there. Nice and sunny sitting in the area outside under the umbrellas. You can choose to sit inside as well. Comfortable and casual environment and the wait staff were professional and friendly. I ordered a beef burger which was delicious; and the deal came with a glass of house wine. However, there wasn't too many items on the menu to choose from. The prices were reasonable being in the city area. There is a big bus stop in front of the cafe, so it can be a little noisy. Service was great so I will be back.

This review is for La Guillotine, Sydney NSW

verified email - 23 Jan 2013

I had a lunch meeting with a client at La Guillotine and it was my first time there. Fine dining atmosphere and a very nice place. Both of us ordered a 2 course meal with a glass of house wine which is included. I had the snails cooked in garlic butter oil and the seafood crepe. My client had the onion soup with croutons and melted cheese which was delicious as well. Excellent service and the wait staff are good looking and professional. Quite expensive for a 2 course meal but a reasonable price for a fining dining restaurant.

Approximate cost: $45

This review is for Bistroteque, Sydney NSW

verified email - 21 Jan 2013

I go to Bistroteque Café with my colleagues for breakfast and lunch as it is located in City CBD and close to our office. The café is quite nice with a small outdoor area which is undercover which you can see busy people passing by. They have packaged coffee and breakfast (toasts etc) together which are quite nice, it is cheaper to get them together than separately. They serve other items like sandwiches and pastas as well which are also delicious. Staff are friendly and efficient. During peak hours, there might not be enough seats and tables though so might need to take-away.

This review is for City Clinic, Sydney NSW

verified email - 21 Jan 2013

I was unwell last time during work hours and my colleague recommended City Clinic to me. I didn't make an appointment and I just popped in. It didn't take long to have a GP available (although it would be better if you have an appointment). Convenient location and a super friendly receptionist. The place is quite huge and they offer a range of services such as chiropractic, physiotherapy and remedial therapy etc.

This review is for East Bank Cafe, Sydney NSW

verified email - 21 Jan 2013

My mum and I went to Eastbank Café for our dinner just before a show at the Opera House. Great view overlooking the the Harbour Bridge during sunset times. They have both indoor and outdoor areas where you can choose to sit. Since we had a show coming up, I advised the waitstaff and asked if they could deliver our order and food abit quicker. They were happy to put our order as a priority. We ordered 2 pizzas to share which were delicious, however, the prices were quite relatively expensive though. BYO costs $15 a bottle, so it wasn't cheap at all.
