Warm inviting feel in the dance studio with teacher/owner that is focused on safety and fitness. Poles are both spinning or static that can be changed in 2 seconds. I enjoyed the free open day and started on casual pole classes. Will be booking in to the courses next week.

Great cakes and cafe. I had no idea it was a cafe and would have blindly driven right past as it is in an industrial area. Look out hard if you in the area.
The savouries looked fantastic but I stuck to a lemon meringue tart and a vanilla slice this time. There were boxes of slices for about $10 each.

Such a beautiful shop inside with amazing boutique branded fragrances you will not find anywhere else. Do not be intimidated to go in as the ladies are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. I gave what I like and normally wear and Jill was able to give me some suggestions. You get the 5 star treatment in this store. Best place to get a gift for someone as well.

Fantastic service and such great quality food. Came here for lunch and had a sushi sahimi platter. It truly was amazing and had such wow factor. Pricey for lunch about $20 but worth it. I had my sashimi fill from this visit.

Great decor and everything but gosh can the service be any worse? I said excuse me a few times and nobody heard me so I stood up and went up to the waiters. It's a posh place and it is not cheap and cheerful, so bad that I will not come back. The dumplings were expensive and I just expected better service for this amount that I am paying.

Great dumplings but service is typically what you expect in a busy Asian place... pretty bad. If you can look past this, the dumplings are really good here.

I had great service compared to some that I read on another food review site. The food was better quality than most Chinese restaurants but you do pay for it. I don't mind it as it was a good ambience, looked fantastic inside the restaurant and you walked in through a heavy door.

This review is for Gelato Messina, Fitzroy VIC

Awesome gelato and ice cream! They sell "tiny" serves if you have kids for $3. Remember to check out the specials boards as it is easy to be distracted by the big dome mounds of gelato in the fridge.

This review is for The Merrywell, Southbank VIC

I went to Merrywell downstairs. I thought it was ok food and perhaps I am a bit spoilt these days with so much good food in Melbourne especially burger places. I had a mexican cobb salad and added a fried chicken for it. It cost $21 for chopped ice berg lettuce, some beans, small amount of corn. And oddly there was tomato, cucumber and feta too?! I just was not impressed and probably should have stuck to a burger. The Merrywell burger looked good and we thought it tasted good but will not be running back in a hurry.

Cannot fault them! Good quality food and attentive staff! Owner has great sense of humour and they have a wholesome menu with amazing scrambled tofu. I had the harlem hustle and vegetarian breakfast. Serving size generous and great quality food. Coffee is amazing but the hot chocolate to die for.
