My favourite local fish and chip shop. Excellent portion sizes and delicious food. I have never been disappointed. They must regularly clean and change the deep fryer oil, becuase everything just tastes "clean". They have a selection of fish that you can choose from the window and they will cook to your liking - grilled or crumbed. Tender calamari. No fresh seafood but that's ok - what they DO have they do really well.

Amazing service. My hair has never looked better. A gorgeous private boutique for ladies only. Professional hair products are used that smell lovely. Affordable and friendly service. Late night appointments can be arranged for the mum who finds it hard to get some "me" time. Even if you don't live locally - this is worth a trip. You will be pampered and feel great when you leave.

Amazing little butcher shop. A true hidden gem that many wouldn't know about. Stocking a great range of halal meat and items you don't find everywhere (like offal and goat).
My personal favourite is the chicken shishkebabs and kufta on sticks. If you're in the area, pop into Red1.

I haven't tried much form this butcher but I loooove their Kufta (it's like a lebanese version of rissole meat). It is some yum and almost as good as the homemade versions I have had from my Lebanese friends. Kids of all ages will love kufta - it does have spices in it, but they are not strong or spicey - they just add nice flavour.
Staff are very nice and helpful. Also they do not add any chemicals to their meat to make them last longer, therefore if you are not using the meat on the same day, it will go darker in colour. This is not because the meat is old, it is because they have NOT added anything to the meat to keep it artificailly red (alot of butchers do this!!!)1 kg of kufta mince costs $12.00.

I loved the look of this centre for my kids. A huge play are that my kids loved. Staff were friendly but were a bit reserved to talk to me much. I liked the organisation of the centre and bottom line my kids were always happy to go to care. They had so much fun and played with lovely educational toys.

Wow such a unique flavour of bun - unlike I have had before. I am told this is a chain of stores based in Malaysia and perhaps throughout Asia. Just delicious and very affordable - you must try this.

I've eaten nearly everything from their menu at one time or another and have never been disappointed. Authentic Lebanese food at it's best. My favourites are tabouli, baba ghanoush and mixed grill shish kebabs. All served in a lovely a setting with eat in or takeaway options. They also offer catering for any parties. Mmmm I want to go there now - this is making me hungry

This review is for Angelz Dental Care, Kuraby QLD

Very caring, gentle service provided. Still had the aweful dentist smell (but I guess you can't escape that!!) Had a range of current magazines in the waiting room - didn't have to wait long for our turn. Was recommended this dentist by a friend - very glad we went and will be back. Great for kids - was exceptional understanding with their fears and concerns about getting a filling.

Neat and tidy store. Had all the usual chemist items you might need. Friendly, helpful staff. Convenient as in a small strip of shops, easy parking. No need to head into the large shopping centre complex down the road just to get a few items.

This review is for Country Fresh Butcher And Deli, Underwood QLD

As the name states, this is NOT just a butcher. They sell a range of ethnic grocery items and spices. I like the frozen chicken burgers (cheaper than at Woolies in the same complex). I haven't tried many of the fresh meat products - for my liking the mince looks a bit fatty. I have tried the chicken shish kebabs (chicken on a stick) - these were great and the kids loved them (similarly priced to Leonards Chicken).
They also have THE BEST Turkish Delight - I buy the bulk box and have to stop myself from devouring in the first sitting - YUMMY!!! Note to self gotta get some more!!!!
