I've bought many computer parts from this place, as well as a bunch of USB sticks. Their prices are anywhere between low and phenomenally low, sometimes, especially in comparison to places like Officeworks. The service is a bit lacking because sometimes the staff strike me as tired/lazy. This is probably due to the huge number of customers they see everyday, though, as the line is always out the door.

Highly recommended, all my tech savvy friends pointed me towards this place!

I've been going to Yen's for their noodles for a few years now. I think they're absolutely fantastic -- it's my favourite noodle place! You can, of course, choose to eat in or take away.

They have a variety of noodle types (hokkien, udon, vermicelli, etc), sides (chicken, beef, seafood, vegetarian) and flavours/seasoning (chilli, mee goreng, satay, oyster, spicy thai...), as well as an option of stir-fry or soups (tom yum).

The amount of noodles they put in the noodle box is very filling, but I always want more anyway! The vegetables and meat are always fresh, and the sauces and seasoning are amazing. Not to mention their spicy options are actually spicy!

And considering their level of popularity, they move quite swiftly. Even if you're the seventh person to make an order.

I highly recommend this place! I love it.

Approximate cost: $8-$9.20

I needed to get my hair trimmed, and slightly altered. I'd recently had it cut into a bob, but it was a bit long (a few cm above my shoulders) and the shape was a bit dull -- I was after a concave style.

The salon itself really quite pretty -- roomy, stylishly furnished. There's a giant bonsai-esque tree right in the middle of the salon, with fairy lights and a little faux-birdcage hanging from it. That was a little mesmerising. :)

So I came in asking how much they would charge if I just wanted the back of my hair to be trimmed (so that I could have the concave style). The lady seemed a bit confused at first, because I don't think she quite understood what I wanted (it seemed that they had difficulty with a few English phrases). In the end she told me it would cost about $40 (!!) and that it would take around 30 minutes (I was in a rush).

So she directed me to my hairdresser, Eun Mi, who seemed very lovely. She washed my hair and gave me a brief scalp massage ('twas GREAT), then popped me into the chair. After explaining to her what I wanted, she nodded and started to cut away. It didn't take all that long, and during that time she was quite lovely to chat to - so sweet. :)

She informed me that I had quite fine hair and asked if I experienced breakage. After I said yes, she gave me some hints on how to maintain my hair, how to use volumising sprays and proper shampoo (without advertising any of their own products). She was very helpful.

She then started blow-drying my hair, and styling it. She even put in some serum (for my dry scalp) and spray (for volume).

In the end, it took an accurate 30 minutes. I was charged either $50 altogether for a wash+cut+blowdry. While I was a bit bothered that they didn't ask me if I wanted a wash or a blowdry in the first place, another $10 wasn't much. I think it was the original $40 for the trim that bothered me.

However, I would go back! And plan to. I just wish they were cheaper, as I'm quite a poor uni student!

Approximate cost: $~$50, for wash+cut+blowdry
