This is a new gelato store just up the road from another named type, but this one is regarded as better. I went with some friends and we tried all different types of Gelato, I had Lychee, and we had double choc, Mango and macadamia. These were all superb and the toast really divine, the presentation is very good and the store bright and clean. There's little taster scoops if you don't know what you would like and Winston the franchise owner is more than happy to assist and give you a little try on a spoon to make your choice easier.
Their coffee is very good and overall this is a great new store.
Approximate cost: $7.50
KFC Mascot is modern, fresh and pleasant and the changing face of KFC.
Approximate cost: $12.00
The Mascot main site at Sydney Kingford Smith airport is great and a good place to stop before an international or Domestic flight, but an even better place to wait for arriving friends or family. The service is excellent and the doughnuts the freshest as this is where they are made before being sent out to all their satellite stores in the terminals.
They have a really great Raspberry cream Doughnut at the moment it might not sound the best, but it is Delicious.
If your going to have two doughnuts and a coffee and there's two of you it's cheaper to buy a half dozen box and coffees, something to chew over.
Approximate cost: $6.50
I was taken to this place by the greatest man alive my Brother, I had been to a couple of Chinese restaurants in My day, as its usually a case of Chinese or a steakhouse for me. This is one of the very best authentic Asian restaurants within the Blacktown area. The Golden Mah Lun is the best, for food and service. I enjoyed every thing a tried and every plate was amazing, very fresh, amazingly tasty and reasonably priced. If it is a romantic larger place you are after, then this is not the place for you. This is a cosy, small space filled with people which is a sign of its popularity, Decor is not flash but its worth it for the great food.
Approximate cost: $11.00
I was looking for a place that would make cheese steaks, one of my Favourite American dishes.
Approximate cost: $25.00
This is a very good Credit Union, they are very handy to my work, main office. And the staff are always friendly and nothing is too much trouble. They have some competitive rates on credit cards and personal loans and car financing. I didn't take my mortgage with them as ING was able to do slightly better, but in hind sight I should have paid the .06% more so I could have some decent customer service.
Police credit Union is overall a very good customer service, friendly place that isn't really like your old fashioned CUA but modern.
The Jury is still out for me on WOMO like most things I went at it gun ho, I also believe I write good, longer, informative more than a paragraph reviews, I don't think I should be getting points for ten or twelve words, thats a statement not a review.
What I didnt like is they sent me an email that, I, had sent too many and not valid or something like that, compliments and that WOMO were taking 1000 points back, I've been a member for five days since the 17/04/12 and on the day in question the 18th, I would have had to send 50 of these inappropriate compliments, firstly the WOMO system only let's you make three compliments a day, so in the 5 days membership that would be 15 max, and as a new person I was just doing what some others did to me so I thought that's how it's done. So I audited my points and there's no way I did, 1000 points worth of compliments.
Also a new review I did which if you put into the search , Hogs Breath Cafe Orange, is there, along with my first review of this business, but it's not in my points tally, where's the points for this new review?
I'm a Gold star Top contributor with Trip advisor, having over 645 positive feedbacks on my thorough reveiws. I also have had over a 100 yes votes on my reviews on productreview.com.au which is up there, with the best and I have never had an issue with either,of these sites. I was hoping WOMO would be more fun, In a day I received a pack from them and put a sticker on my Caprice, More fun, nicer? we are still yet to see.
So further to this on the 14/06/12 I had without Notice 2080 points deducted for indiscriminate use of compliments, aparently you can compliment three people per day But its up to Womo discretion who you compliment if they feel you have paid too many to one person or that your paying compliments for short reviews that in their mind dont warrant a compliment then thats just not on.
I also havnt received 12 gift cards 6 of which I have claimed well over 5 weeks ago. I am worried that something is certainly up. I have introduced 5 friends to Womo who also are all awaiting gift cards.
Approximate cost: $8080 points
I've just come back from shopping at the Christmas warehouse for my mid year Yuletide preparations, they have everything you could want and it is either tatty and you won't pay much or there are some good quality items but you'll pay more. I good a good range of lights and another tree, you can never have enough trees, just not enough storage, but it's all quite discounted at this time of year, I joined the VIP club on line which gets you a further 10% discount on your in store purchases. It's so much fun to do Christmas shopping at Christmas, but even better at this time of year as its way less crowds.
Approximate cost: $345.00
Now this is where you get a great Thai feed in Newtown, with excellent service and great ambience this place is clean, relaxing and the closet you can get to being in Thailand but not actually having to go there. There's a great shop attached as well, where I have picked up an elephant and a Buddah or two. Love this restaurant and Service is outstanding.
Approximate cost: $23.00
Traveling to the USA a few times a year means we come back for a yearning for Red Velvet cup cakes Occasionally, and this place makes them pretty good, along with allot of other cakes, in handy in the centre, but don't fall for parking in the world centre car park like I did, it will cost you more than a whole day out for two hours.
Approximate cost: $6.50
