Mike's Meats is really great at providing fresh and high quality meats. I could find everything I need for a BBQ. I believe prices are among lowest butchers.

Assistants are very friendly and enjoying their jobs.

The room inside is very cool, and I often go straightforward to what are in my list.

Approximate cost: $low

I love the game meat provided by Eco Meats such as crocodile meat and kangaroo sausage.

The assists there are very friendly. When I were looking for crocodile meat, they answered my questions pleasantly. In addition, they told me how they cook crocodile meat.

Approximate cost: $Over normal

This review is for New Asia, Dickson ACT

This small neat restaurant provides a mixture of Chinese food: Shanghai, Sichun and Cantonese cruise. I loved a coupe of dishes from Shanghai cruise. Meat ball is also good.

The manager was a bit too talkative, while at the first few times, her recommendation was useful. But later on, I preferred enjoying the food while chatting with my mates.

Approximate cost: $18

We bought a property from the agent. The manager was really efficient and nice to manage our inspection -- we did four inspections before reaching an agreement at four different time points, workday afternoon, weekend morning and afternoon.
The other team members were okay though could not provide valuable information.
We basically like this family-run business, and my wife is willing to ask them to manage our investment property someday.

We were waiting for 20 minutes for our dishes first time. These Chinese dishes are just normal quality. The roast duck, however, is my wife's favorite.

It is more suitable for takeaway instead of dining there.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for New Wing Chinese Restaurant, Belconnen ACT

verified email - 13 Jan 2012

The new wing restaurant is one of the most affordable restaurants I have tried. Attractively to my son, there are always to free small dishes (fried peanut and Shrimp chips). In addition, if we order three dishes, we can get the fourth dish with $1.

The taste is more close to Cantonese cruise, though I love several chef's special like fried beef.

We were often severed quickly.

Approximate cost: $16

This review is for Car Doctor, Belconnen ACT

I visited Car Doctor in Aug 2011. I got an amazing impression.
I was suggested that it is not necessary for major service as everything seemed minor service is okay.
My car got the cheapest service in Canberra, only 139 bulks.

Approximate cost: $139

It is one of my favorite Chinese restaurant in Canberra.

Its Beijing roast duck is really delicious though it needs booking 24 hours earlier. Yu xiang eggplant hot pot is yummy. One Si Bao Dou Fu (bean Kerb) is favorite to my little son.

This review is for Water Margin Restaurant, Belconnen ACT

The restaurant provides some genuine Sichun dishes as the owner is from that place.
My second time visit was very disappointed. The two dishes I order were totally cooked totally different from they should be done. Complained a lot. Finally $2 discount for each dish.

It has really nice view to the Ginninderra lake.

Approximate cost: $25
