That's not what he said...
Just down the road from me.
The Curry place there's not bad but still not as good as Spice Avenue and the staff are all a bit stern including the Granny who sit and watches everyone like a hawk.

The shopping centre has definitely improved with the last lot of shops added but I find the pretend Myers a bit frustrating as you still have to go to City Myers for most things as it has such limited stock.

How you finding Noth Lakes, don't think it's quite the British enclave it used to be as with all the new estates now people have spread around a bit more?

It's fine, not met many brits though the kids have made alot of new british friends through school.
don't really do shopping, so try to avoid unless it's the weekly shop

I much prefer Coles and Woolworths home delivery to a trip to the shops. And prefer Chermside or DFO if I have to Ho non food shopping or the city.
