My daughter is learning to drive with Steve Lupton. She has 1.1/2 hours lessons at a cost of $80. He does have 1 hour lessons available.
She tells me that Steve is a very patient and friendly teacher - taking his time to explain all the manoeuvres and making sure you understand. He allows you to learn at a pace you are comfortable with and will happily go over previous things from other lessons as required. He remains calm at all times. He explains how a mistake may have been avoided without turning it into a stressful situation.

A new bakery at Morphett Vale, since approx. October 2014. We decided to try their products for lunch. My husband had a beef and mushroom pie and I had a Thai Curry Chicken pie. They were both delicious. The bakery has a huge range of pies and I am going to try their lamb satay next. We shared an apricot slice which was about 4cm deep. It was amazing. This could quickly become our favourite local bakery.

An old fashioned bakery where the bakers can be seen making their produce. We were there early for lunch so decided to share a pie and cake with our mugs of coffee (total price $16.40). The service was exceptional - patient, friendly, efficient and thoughtful. The pepper pie did not lack any pepper and had small chunks of beef which were very tender. Taste - yum. Our doughnut roll was filled with fresh cream and amazing custard and was also very delicious. Good coffee. We were finishing around 12 noon when the bakery began to fill with quite a number of customers. Obviously very popular and we understood why.

A Moroccan delight - atmosphere, superior service and mouth watering tasteful food. We enjoyed dates filled with almond with honey drizzle, 4 dips and flatbread, chicken pastries, lamb tagine and couscous sweets with homemade icecream. Amazing! Dates, almonds, sultanas, lemon and honey featured in the foods. My mouth is watering now. Look forward to a return visit.

Approximate cost: $25-$30

A lovely new restaurant with relaxing atmosphere with table and chairs or lounge area. The owner is amazing - wants everyone to feel like part of the family. We had coffee and cake for $6.00 each. The tiramisu was wonderful. The chef is lovely. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. Prices are equal to pub fare, but I imagine the food will taste better as it is prepared with love. Looking forward to Mother's Day breakfast.

Approximate cost: $20

Being an older woman of 63 a Celtic tattoo was on my bucket list for many years. I investigated different tattoo centres for several months. Xanchies had been recommended by a friend of my son's, so I looked at their Facebook page and was impressed, especially with Bronson. Xanchies is a member of the Professional Tattooing Association of Australia and hygiene and your safety are of paramount importance. I was treated with the utmost courtesy and respect. The artwork is fantastic and well priced. I was encouraged to return during the first few weeks for regular inspections to make sure all was well. I am extremely pleased with my body art. If I were to have another I would certainly return. But one is enough for me. Fully recommend. Crystals, jewellery and clothing are also sold in the store.

Approximate cost: $100

We recently tried takeaway from this shop on the recommendation of our daughter. She loves the vegetarian variety which is quite large. We ordered chicken korma and beef madras with rice and naan bread. Our order took about 30 minutes and was wonderfully hot when we collected it. There was plenty of meat in the dishes and the flavours were wonderful (not too spicy, even though we enjoy spicy). The prices were average for the area. We will return.

Approximate cost: $11

Went to this hotel for a lunch, as we were in the area. We were not impresssed. Even though it had been up-dated it had a depressing atmosphere. The room was large with only one window which made it seem rather dim. The food was average pub fare as were the prices. My chicken schnitzel was overcooked. Service was also only average. Probably will not return.

Approximate cost: $16

What absolutely delicious yoghurt - so thick and creamy AND low fat. I tried banana passionfruit and my husband had rhubarb. I want to try their lemon cheesecake and pear/walnut. A 240g tub was rather expensive at $4.80, but we were lucky to have a 1/1 voucher. The shop also sells frozen yoghurt and smoothies. I will return but only as a treat.

A lovely bakery in the Colonnades Centre. What I love best is the variety of pastries, both savoury and sweet. They usually have specials for a coffee and cake for around $5, which is great value. Their pies and cakes average $4 each. Cleanliness is great and service is average. The seating area is in the mall, rather than cafe style. Try their vanilla slice - it is a must. Will return.
