By Nicholise Garner FOR anyone who comes to a new town, there are a few things they need guidance with. One of those is where to find excellent Indian food. For so many Shepparton locals, the consensus is that the food at Desi Tandoori Bite (aka King Street Indian) speaks for itself.

This family owned and run business has earned its reputation over the past eight years. Desi Tandoori Bite business owner, Des Raj said, “We are very proud of the reputation our restaurant has developed over the years and we are happy to see our customers returning regularly. We haven’t

felt the need to change our menu in a long time because our customers know what they like. ” Des has invited long time family friend and chef, Chandeep Singh to cook alongside him. Chandeep said, “I’m really pleased to be working alongside and learning from such a wonderful chef.”

If you’re one of the few people who haven’t already enjoyed the food at Desi Tandoori Bite, I’d encourage you to give it a try. It’s delicious! Visit Desi Tandoori Bite at 30 King Street, Shepparton or call them on 5858 5326.

OVER the next eight months, the community will have the chance to take part in over 400 activities across the region, as part of the 2017/2018 Activities in the Park program.

Running from September 2017 through to April 2018, the program provides an opportunity for Greater Shepparton residents and visitors to participate in a number of free and low cost activities, encouraging people to be outdoors and get active.

There are activities on offer for everyone of all ages and abilities to enjoy, providing a great opportunity to utilise the wellestablished parks, pools and outdoor spaces in the region.

This season’s program also features new activities that Activities in the Park hasn’t previously included, being the arts. Some of the Active Art activities on offer include

3D Chalk Art, Sandcastle Sculpting and African Drumming.

Greater Shepparton City council Healthy Communities Officer, Carmen Nicholson said, “The program now runs from September through to April and encourages people to get out, active and engaged in the community “This year we received support from VicHealth’s Active Arts Program to provide more Active Art events.

“All the activities are free and held all throughout Greater Shepparton.”

For updates on the activities, residents and visitors can download the free Get Mooving App for smart phones, get a copy of the program flyer, visit the Get Mooving Greater Shepparton website or follow Get Mooving Greater Shepparton on Facebook and Instagram.

Changes at Riverside Plaza THERE have been wonderful developments recently at Riverside Plaza with the introduction of the fantastic soft play area for young children, the opening of the new food court and with the arrival of WASAI Sushi to name just a few changes.

It’s never been a better time to explore the plaza, especially over the school holidays.

Bring the kids in to enjoy free activities and take advantage of the new food court and play area while you’re there.

During the first week of the school holidays, Tuesday 26, Wednesday 27 and Thursday 28 September, kids can enjoy free rock painting from 11am to 2pm. Kids get to use their creativity and they get to Page 8 – The Adviser, Stop Shop Save & Be Entertained – September 2017

In the second week of the school holidays, Tuesday 3, Wednesday 4 and Thursday, October 5 from 11am to 2pm kids can try their hand at painting just like an artist using art easels. There will be pre drawn pictures for kids to practice their brush skills or they can use their own imagination and create something of their very own. It’s all free thanks to Riverside Plaza and Enchanted Rainbow.

FRYERS&

Newest brand on the street NEXT time you walk past the Jesse’s Shepparton and Echuca stores and you feel the urge to start humming a song or doing a little toe tap, it’s probably because you feel the rhythm coming from Jesse’s. Yes, the guys from Jesse’s have always believed they have a good feel for music, and they’ve always wanted to say they’ve got rhythm, and now they can back that up.

Yes, Jesse’s have Rhythm. They have added cool surf brand Rhythm to their extensive range of top young surf brands. Rhythm caters for both guys and girls, but Jesse’s are particularly excited about the girl’s range of swimwear, t-shirts, skirts and pinafores.

When you add Rhythm to Jesse’s top young brands in Rip Curl, Rusty, Quicksilver, Roxy, Billabong, O’Neil, Element, Fox and Unit and other more recent inclusions such as Ziggy, Vissla and Mad Minds, there are lots of good reasons to explore Jesse’s range this summer.

Don’t forget, when it comes to feet, Jesse’s has more on offer than most, with Globe, D.C, Kustom and Vans for street and smart casual shoes, pluse the range of thongs around from Havaiana’s, Reef and all of your favourite surf brands.

Feel the Rhythm at Jesse’s Shepparton (in the Maude Street Mall) and Echuca stores this summer.
