The hair dressers have a good sense of style and know how to deal with many kinds of hair, including my natural waviness. The haircuts are reasonably priced and they often include special treatment such as washing and straightening (I once asked them to make me look like Kevin Rudd) at no extra cost.

The cafe is a relaxed place to hang around, read the paper and have a morning coffee. The young man who served me last time was friendly and talkative and offered me a particular Vietnamese variation on Iced Coffee, which I enjoyed, though I found it a little on the sweet side.

Overall, I find going there is always an enjoyable experience and I come out looking a lot better than I did when I went in.

Approximate cost: $12
