Nanook

My son has been going here since he was 11 weeks old and it has been great to see him progress though the age levels. He is walking now and having a great time on the equiptment. The newborn class was a good one for me too as it gave me a chance to connect with other mothers going though the same things at the same time. As other people have said it really depends on the teacher, some are better than others so it is worth trying a couple of different classes to find the right one. It is a tad on the expensive side (but all these things seem to be) but I think it is worth it even if some days all my son wants to do it play in the ball bucket.

This place is amazing. We heard about it from a friend, who heard about it from a friend and so on. It is located a fair way off the main road but is certainly worth the detour. We went in winter so the berries were not on the vines, but the store is still worth the trip. The jams and pickles are great (the eggplant kassoundi is my favourite) But in winter it is all about the apple and balckberry pies, a desert I will not soon forget. The also have an online store and are often at the southbank markets in Brisbane if you don't make it to Stanthorpe.

This is great little cake shop. They have a good range of savoury items such as pies and sausage rolls but I must admit I go there for the sweet treats (the chocolate elcairs are particulary good) which I love beacuse they use real, fresh cream (nothin mock here). They also have larger pies/quiches for a easy family dinner. They do have an online service where you can order then pick up in store the next day.

This is a favourite place for our family. The food is good, the type you would expect from this sort of mexican restaurant. You do get good value for money, the portion sizes are very generous. It is also a family friendly place, early in the evening you can usually find quite a few families dining, if you want a less chaotic atmosphere than avoid an early dinner, bit later tends to a quieter experience.
