I ordered a 13kg box of ripe bananas from them. They came by lunchtime on the appointed day. The quality of the ripe bananas is quite good, but it would be nice if they offered a half box too for a discounted price. The mini cos lettuce I bought was also good quality, although expensive. I received a voucher for free bread on the next order.
The bananas were cheap here, and they are very good quality for $1.99 a kilo. They also had some specials on lettuce, so I got a few of them. The cos lettuce was only $2 for 2 large heads.
I bought 3 sushi rolls for $8 from here. The price is a bit high for sushi rolls, but considering it's Castle Towers, it's acceptable. The staff are friendly and the taste is satisfactory.
Approximate cost: $8
I came here with a voucher for a cut, colour and blowdry for $69. The appointment started on time and finished within 90 minutes. I was politely offered water or tea upon being seated, and given some magazines. The first lady asked what I wanted to have done. I received exactly what I wanted with the colour (I got some red foils), and after asking for a trim with layers, I received that too. Each job (colour, wash, cut, blowdry) was done well (even though by different women), and I felt like I was in good hands. The staff were friendly and I wouldn't mind visiting again. I came on a day that wasn't so busy, and I didn't feel like anything was rushed. I walked out feeling satisfied and loved how one of the girls curled my hair a little after the blowdry. While waiting for the colour to set I had a TV to watch or magazines to read. My hair looks and feels great after the appointment.
Approximate cost: $69
I bought 2 bottles of hydrogen peroxide (food grade) from them at a reasonable price. It's hard to find websites in Australia that sell this. Their shipping is a flat rate of $10, so if makes sense to order more at a time if you need to.
Approximate cost: $50
I went here last Saturday night with several friends. They stay open until after 9pm, and we got there late, so that's when we started ordering. At that time, the place was not too crowded, and the food came within 20 minutes. I ordered a Tofu Ramen, which cost $12.80. It was filling and delicious.
Approximate cost: $15
I used to buy their ice crushes until I found out I had an allergy to them - maybe it was the colouring they used. They are delicious though.
Reasonable prices for Japanese cuisine. I like their wild rice sushi rolls. However, I found their Yaki Soba lacking in enough vegetables - it was mostly noodles.
Carl gives good service at a reasonable price. He takes us to and from the airport, quite reliably. Once when he couldn't take us, he sent someone else to come and pick us up.
I came here and ordered a pizza. I asked for no cheese, but when the pizza arrived there was cheese on it. In addition to that, the pizza was extremely oily. In fact when I ate some of the toppings (the crust was drenched), all you could see was oil. I think they overdid the oil! So I complained about this, and they gave me a free salad to compensate. I didn't want to have to wait another 30 minutes or so for another pizza, so I accepted this. Good thing they didn't charge for the pizza or the salad. The place was very busy when I went for dinner, so that is why the pizza took so long.
