This review is for E Z Electrics, Eumemmerring VIC

verified email - 30 Jul 2011

Professional, efficient and friendly guys who installed a safety switch, removed a light fitting, replaced a ceiling fan and hooked up a bathroom fan to the main light switch. Initially they were booked in for 5pm but I received a call apologising for being late and that was just after 12 noon! So they actually came extra early!

That night a couple of lights in the lounge wouldn't turn on so I called them and Mario came out to fix the problem the next morning.

I highly recommend these guys for their decent pricing (no call out fee like the initial electrician I booked who didn't show up...and thanks to WOMOW I stumbled upon these guys) and friendly and professional service.

Approximate cost: $230

This review is for Woofpurnay Veterinary Hospital, Narre Warren North VIC

A wonderful bunch of expect friendly staff who tend to your pets and give detailed explanations regarding your pets health.

The prices are reasonable for the services received (routine vaccinations and checkups etc) and they also cater for larger animals and wildlife care and rehabilitation. There is a pet supermarket, a swimming pool and boarding facilities on site and an animal physiotherapist available.

Free treats for your doggy at the reception desk :)

This review is for Robbo's Pet Barn, Dandenong South VIC

verified email - 25 Sep 2009

I have been going to Robbo's for years and they are pretty well stocked with an assortment of quality pet products. I buy Nutrience pet food for my cats and dog and they are one of the few retailers that still stock this brand with the occasional price special or bonus item giveaway now and then. Although the prices for products in general are no cheaper than other pet specialty stores.

Unfortunately the customer service has deteriorated over the years. The girls used to be so friendly and now they simply put your transaction through without much of a smile or chit chat like in the past. I don't think they are properly trained to know their products thoroughly to be able to give good advice either.

This review is for Lentil As Anything, St Kilda VIC

verified email - 17 Apr 2008

This cosy little restaurant with it's bohemian arty farty interior serves up delicious vegetarian & vegan meals in the open kitchen right in front of you. Lentil as Anything is a non-profit organisation with the premise that you pay what you think the meal is worth. I am a big fan of their Sri Lankan pumpkin curry!

Approximate cost: $Pay what you think the food deserves

I love the fresh pork rolls here made up right in front of you by the friendly ladies. The bread, pies, pasties, quiches & other sweet baked goodies are very reasonably priced.

This review is for Brilliant Eyes Forever, Springvale VIC

The girls at the counter are always so helpful & friendly & the optometrists do a thorough checkup every time & always give you an easy to understand explanation when it comes to the condition of your eyes. They do not try to up sell their designer frames unless that's what you're really after. Instead they will always offer you a cheaper alternative that looks just as stylish. It's totally up to you. So far they have the best prices for contact lenses I have come across.

This review is for Tammyle Hair Image, Springvale VIC

At Tammy's they don't take bookings. They are simply super speedy at what they do so you're never waiting long, & that doesn't mean compromising on a fab cut. The girls (& guy) are friendly & very efficient. They are up with the latest styles and use quality tools (ghd etc.). A wash, cut & blowdry for a male or female is only $8!!

Approximate cost: $8

This review is for Belgrave Manor Earthly Pleasures Cafe, Belgrave VIC

verified email - 16 Apr 2008

The ambience in this cafe is so relaxing & warm. I was drawn to this beautiful bluestone building with its exposed rafters and rich warm brick interior. Once inside I was met with friendly down to earth service and the soothing sounds of a solo guitar vocalist playing familiar tunes beside a crackling fire in the fireplace. I was surprised to see a lady at the table next to me in a reclining chair feasting on her pasta! They have a good range of vegetarian, vegan and gluten free meals.

Approximate cost: $14-$22

This review is for Anvet Pet Clinics, Ashwood VIC

verified email - 15 Apr 2008

I have been taking my pets to Anvet for nearly 10 yrs & they are wonderful. The receptionists are always friendly and helpful & the vets are always gentle with the animals & very informative. I have recommended this vet to my fellow pet owners including a pal of mine who has a guide dog. I must say that I was extremely moved when I received a thoughtful handwritten card after the death of my cat who died during surgery. I was also given a discount on emergency surgery costs when my rabbit died purely because she didn't make it! These guys really care about your pets!
