This review is for Little Bangkok Thai Restaurant, Cannon Hill QLD

verified email - 25 Feb 2013

I've just moved to the area, and decided to order takeway from here. It was ready at the time they stated it would be. The Masaman curry was delicious, but the Thai Red Curry was fairly bland and did not have a great flavour. It's close and good value, and i'll try a few more dishes to see how the rest of their lineup is, but its definitely not my go to asian take away just yet!

Approximate cost: $16

This review is for Denticare, Brisbane QLD

verified email - 25 Feb 2013

I went to Trevor at Denticare as they were a preferred provider of my private health fund. They were on time, professional, clean and friendly. I was in and out with clean teeth and recommendations on future work without any fuss at all.

I will definitely be returning for the follow up work that my teeth require.

Approximate cost: $0

This review is for Universal Plumbing Service, Cannon Hill QLD

verified email - 22 Feb 2013

After a slightly failed DIY effort under the sink, I called around to find a plumber that could come ASAP. Ernie from Universal Plumbing was able to come at a time that suited me early the following morning before work.

He was friendly and fixed the job quickly, and was kind enough to point out where I went wrong and how to avoid it next time.

He'll be my go to plumber in the future.

Approximate cost: $100

This review is for ARIA Brisbane, Brisbane QLD

verified email - 22 Feb 2013

I was lucky enough to have a gift voucher to go towards a meal here, and had heard good things about it.

The service was friendly and perfectly timed. The food was delicious, and the portion sizes were really generous for an expensive restaurant.

The steak was perfectly cooked, the sauces delicious and the mash potato was the best I have ever tasted.

It's not cheap, and probably not somewhere i'll be going again for a while, but if you feel like a fancy night out, i'd recommend ARIA for sure.

Approximate cost: $50

This review is for Brisbane Pool Boys, Morningside QLD

verified email - 22 Feb 2013

These guys provide fast and friendly advice on how to test and manage your pool. They have a database of your pool and equipment and do the testing for you.

They are really friendly and helpful and i'd be happy to recommend them to anyone.

This review is for Woolworths, Dutton Park QLD

verified email - 07 Jul 2012

This is where I do the bulk of my groceries.

Pros:
Good parking on roof top, makes it easy to get in and out quickly
Decent sized store
Is close to pharmacy, doctor, cheap shop for doing a few jobs at once.
Good value, plenty of specials

Cons:
Annoying gold coin deposit required for shopping trolleys
Seem always understaffed
Fruit and veg section is often understocked, and not great quality

Overall:
It's a Woolworths, you know what you are getting, and i've been to worse ones.
If they were a bit quicker to open new tills, it would be a lot better.

This review is for Goodtime Surf And Sail, Woolloongabba QLD

verified email - 07 Jul 2012

Goodtime surfshop is a great shop which you don't expect to find in the middle of Brisbane. If it's related to water sports, they sell it. They have EVERYTHING. Surfboards, kite boards, kites, kayaks, wetsuits, clothes, skateboards, cameras, sunglasses, watches, windsurfing gear, the list goes own.

The staff are always friendly and helpful, as sometimes it's a bit hard to find things there is so much stuff.

Their prices are reasonable, and the have a huge carpark out the back.

This review is for Kmart, Cannon Hill QLD

verified email - 07 Jul 2012

I haven't lived in Australia or four years, and when I left, K-Mart was the last place I would go to shop.

Now, it's a great experience. The shelves aren't as high, so you can see across the whole store. They have a select range of their own products which are good quality and a great price.

If you are setting up a new home, Kmart should be you first stop.

That staff at this Cannon Hill store are friendly and helpful, and i've never had to wait long.

This review is for Officeworks, Spring Hill QLD

verified email - 07 Jul 2012

Most Officeworks I expect to be short staffed, but for once this one was an exception. Free tea and coffee on entry was nice, and the staff were friendly. It always feels a bit expensive shopping at Officeworks, but everything is there.

Approximate cost: $40

This review is for Sahara Grill, Mascot NSW

verified email - 16 May 2012

I ordered an Iskender Kebab, normally a feast! Here, the bread was stale, and not much sauce.

The service was pretty poor too.

I thought i'd try something other than the usual chains at Sydney airport, but it was pretty disappointing.

Approximate cost: $14
