Beautiful store, as per usual, and usually a pretty good range of accessories. Prices are usually reasonable but sometimes are a little questionable; the pieces themselves are quite nice though and are well-presented.

A fun place to hang out after some serious uni has been done with. Great range to order from and conveniently located near the station.

This review is for Wagaya, Haymarket NSW

Have only been here in large groups of about 20+. They've put us in a private room with recessed seating that is quite fun, though a little awkward to move around. The touch screens (two in the room) make it easy to order food, though a few times the waiters got our room confused with the other room next door. Drinks weren't too bad, had my first Japanese sake there and they have more usual drinks too.

Approximate cost: $20

This review is for The Argyle, The Rocks NSW

A well-decorated bar with really nice food. Great variety of places to hang out - from the mismatched couches to the cobblestone courtyard closer to the entrance. Only problem is that it can be hard to find seats at popular times; lots of reservations can make it difficult to find a space big enough to stay.

This review is for Pancakes On The Rocks, The Rocks NSW

Sometimes the waiting time takes it's toll, but the food is really great and the pancakes are always generously served up with yummy toppings. Have been here in small to large group sizes but it has always been good.

This review is for Top Ryde Medical Centre, Denistone East NSW

This bulk-billing center is very popular but very good the times I have been. Doctors are quite friendly and was served in relatively good time (waiting time varies depending when you go). Once I went it wasn't so busy so I nearly immediately saw a doctor. The medication that I've had there have helped immensely both times. Conveniently there's lots of parking too.

This review is for Lane Cove River Tourist Park, Macquarie Park NSW

This is a great park to drop by for family gatherings or picnics with friends. There's lots to do and plenty of places to hang out. Only inconvenience would be finding nearby toilets. All-in-all the park has lots to do though with walks, a playground and such. Have enjoyed many a BBQ here and it's always nice to go to, provided there is good weather!

This review is for Dr Michael Urwand Dentist, Randwick NSW

A friendly dentist who knows what he's doing. Always gentle and I'm usually quite relaxed in his little practice. Good range of magazines are provided when waiting at reception and the dental assistants are really nice too. Also conveniently close to a good Vinnies.

This review is for Thairiffic, Sydney NSW

Went to this after purchasing a groupon deal, so it was really good value for money! I ordered the tom yum soup with rice noodles; it was ok - I thought the soup was too sweet and not spicy at all. It seems like they've toned down how authentic it is to please Sydneysiders, but I don't know if the flavours are too flat now. All-in-all though, it was served in extremely good time and was a satisfying meal, albeit the soup being a little different than expected.

Approximate cost: $13

This review is for Star Buffet, Seven Hills NSW

verified email - 24 Jul 2012

A very good buffet to go to with an excellent range of foods. Upon first looks the most impressive displays are definitely the giant chocolate fountain and the sushi train on offer. Only downside was the limited parking (I hear that they're expanding the carpark) and the food was probably ridden with MSG, because our family was noticeably dehydrated/thirsty afterwards. Otherwise, the food was great - scallops with garlic mash, Japanese tofu and waffles were probably my favourites!

Approximate cost: $24
