Barrymores - March 15, 2007

Voyageur Apartments - March 15, 2007
3 out of 9 people found this review helpful. This is a pretty decent apartment building that features an indoor pool and laundry services on each floor. Security is very good and allows you to view who is ringing you on your television. Walls are too thin, however.
I do not recommend this place.

Norberry Residences - March 15, 2007

A Beautiful Smile Prince of Wales Dental Centre - March 15, 2007
1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. The individuals who work at this dental center are very professional. It is a nice atmosphere and the prices are reasonable. However, cosmetic dental work is not something that should be undertaken lightly. Do your research and be sure that this is the right thing for you and that this is the right place to have it done before embarking on this path.
I do not recommend this place.

Cosmetic Laser Center - March 15, 2007
0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Cosmetic Laser Center has a professional staff, but I would recommend doing lots of research before venturing into the office. Laser is a serious undertaking that should not be done on a whim. Do your homework and speak to some people who have gone through the process before signing up for laser treatments.

L'Ange Cyber Cafe - October 5, 2006
0 out of 0 people found this review helpful. As far as cyber cafes go, this one is pretty decent. With the wireless revolution it's pretty difficult to find a decent cyber cafe. Kind of a relief that one of these relics is still kicking.

Krackers Katering - October 5, 2006
0 out of 0 people found this review helpful. Krackers Katering - despite the name, their catering is excellent, really. They have a lovely website also where you can check out their extensive menu. The desserts are out of this world - especially the fruit tarts with Bavarian cream.
