Being a Sydney Swans supporter, I was a bit hesitant to step into this up market fish and chip cafe (owned by James Hird). But, I have to admit that it is a nice trendy place, and has very good seafood. I definitely would go back and leave my footy scarf at home.

After going to the theatre, I went here with high expectations. I was not disappointed. I found the food and wine excellent in quality. France-Soir is unique and has a nice bistro atmosphere.

The chef we had was very entertaining and talented. I cannot believe how he can throw the food into my mouth at such a distance! I think it is a great place to go with family and friends for a special occasion. I prefer this one than their Collins Street restaurant.

I went to this place to relax after going horse riding. I found most of the staff friendly enough and other people using the facilities polite. The place was not an amazing experience for me, but it was okay overall.

I have been here many times for lunch, and I have never been disappointed. It's my favourite place to order linguine marinara actually, and the service has always been good for me.

I purchased my Jack Russell from this store. At the time, I was so nervous and the employees were very nice. They should have warned me that he is a naughty Jack Russell before the transaction. But, I really love him to bits and happy to have him today.

I had not seen my best friend for a very long time and we arranged to go to this restaurant for lunch. The view was beautiful and the oysters were delicious. But, the linguine marinara was a little disappointing. I would still go back to this restaurant again because their dessert was excellent! It just means I will have to try a different main course, next time.

The Conservatory at Crown is definitely my favorite buffet place. Their seafood is pretty fresh and tasty. I really enjoyed the prawns and oysters – as you can tell I have an appetite for seafood. I think it's a nice place to go with a group of friends who don't mind a pricey buffet.

I find it impossible to go to Melbourne Central without stopping at Borders. Great place; great range of books, magazines and DVD; and the staff are great too!

I love uploading and watching YouTube videos. I've found it useful for my uni presentation, and enjoy watching some lectures from overseas that have been posted up.
