Fantastic food, recommend clay pot fish, crispy pancake and prawn and eggplant fritters. Service was great, just the right spacing between dishes. Nice style of a restaurant, and its byo as well as licensed. Great value for the quality, approx $25-$30 per person not inc wine.Only problem is the room is vey very noisy

Went there for lunch on a weekday, so they were not really busy, but, their service was excellent, very attentive, food arrived promptly and really well cooked etc. Fairly limited menu, though lots of vegetarian options, generous serves. Only issue is decor could be spruced up a bit..though maybe slightly grunge is the look they are aiming for

Approximate cost: $20

A new outlet of the famous Adrian Zumbo at Star City. Lots of choices to die for....zumbarons (salted caramel was my favourite) pastries, tarts and cakes that are almost works of art, and taste amazing

This review is for Din Tai Fung, Pyrmont NSW

Food outlet at Star City's new "upmarket" food court. This is a franchise of the famous Din Tai Fung. You order your food and are given a buzzer to collect when ready. Only tried the dumplings, but there is also rice and noodle dishes. The dumplings were wonderful, silky dough and nice filling in a little broth (remember the broth before you bite in!). Lots of sauces and packets of ginger to accompany made them delicious.
I ordered 3 lots of dumplings and it was less than $20

Good survey site, plenty of surveys, though find it easier to log in reguarly and do the surveys all in one go rather than answering all the emails. They now have paypal so any credits can be paid in cash rather than giftcards

Like the new site a lot better, reguarly send email invites, fairly easy to get a $20 voucher every month - 6 weeks. App works on ipad, but never seem to get any surveys via the app

Love this pub, fantastic outdoor beer garden (and a couple of covered areas). Good honest pub food, but the best bit is watching the footy on the big (actually huge) outdoor screen....it feels like your at the game

Approximate cost: $25

I agree with te other reviews, it is an easy site to use and they pay 20 cents even if you're screened out. Its worth logging in each day....I find I get more surveys and sites to view this way, and can usually get up to the $25 payout figure every month to 6 weeks

This review is for Southern Cross Hotel, St Peters NSW

The restaurant is run by the "oscars" chain. Food is good standard pub food in a nice pub setting. Staff really try hard, and the specials, such as Monday Rib night make it very affordable. Lots of parking, makes it a great spot for large family gatherings

Approximate cost: $20-25
