Simply put these are great pizzas. Certainly not your usual fair. The thin bases and interesting topping combinations make for a great pizza experience.

A nice little pizza and pasta place. The atmosphere is nice, we especially like to dine outside on the footpath and watch the world travel by. The pizzas are great and they have a large variety of toppings so there is something to suit everyone. I have only tried a few of the pasta options but so far they have all be good.

If you are looking for somewhere to buy sweets in bulk this is the place for you. THey have a huge range of lollies, most of which are available in bulk sized packets, as well as whole cartons of chocolate bars. I bought from here when preparing the candy buffet for my wedding. They also have a large range of sweets from overseas (USA, New Zealand, Great Britain and others). The store also stocks a large range of party products, decoration favours, costume etc.

This review is for China View Restaurant, Kenmore QLD

This is our regular shop when the family is feeling like chinese takeaway. The food is really good (although as no one in the family eats seafood i cannot comment on those) dishes but the others we have tired have been really good. The service can be a bit slow when they area busy, so it is a good idea to ring through your order first rather than just turn up. We have never eaten in the restaurant itself (just had takeaway) but it look clean and neatly presented.

My family had takeway from here last weekend and it was really good, certainly worth mentioning. We purchased one of the multipacks with a variety of different dishes and they were all really good, but lemon chicken was amazing. I cannot really comment on the service as my husband went to pick it up, but he certainly was not waiting to long. We will certainly be happy to eat from here again next time we are up that way.

I love this yarn store. It is certainly more expensive than somewhere like spotlight, but the range and quality of the yarns is worth it. It is really the place to go if you are making that special piece for someone.

This is an amazing little papercraft store. They have a good range of good quality rubber stamps for cardmaking. They also have a large range of scrapbooking papers, cards and other little bits and pieces of crafty things. The staff are very helpful and really know their stuff. They also do various papercraft lessons.

This review is for Castle Glen Australia, Tamborine Mountain QLD

Although this in only a small cellar door compared to the main store in Stanthorpe, this shop still has the shoe range of flavoured liquers on site in a variety of sized and shapped bottles. The staff are very friendly and always happy to offer free sample of anything you might be thinking of buying. It is always a place I pop into to get gifts for those hard to buy for people in my life. Today I bought Jely bean flavour but have also tried stawberry, musk, macadamia nut, passionfruit and chocolate port. The list of falvours is very extensive, it would be impossible to try them all.

Approximate cost: $35

I was due to have an eye test and check my current glasses and I just randomly chose this optometrist and I am glad that I did. The service was great, the optometrist was wonderful and the floor staff were very helpful (and honest with their opinion of how different glasses looked) Will happily go back there.
