Springvale special part I- Golden Plaza, Springvale.

OK, a bit of a saga this time.
I genuinely like Springvale. I grew up there, still live fairly near by and go there pretty often. It has shops, all right, and those shops have customers, who bring their cars. Most days it is packed, so catch a train there if you can.
Heading south-ish along Springvale Road from the station, first you will pass the Springvale Centre :

This was the built in the early 80s, and has a couple of great stores in it- pork butchers, seafood stores and green grocers. Then you come to the massive Springvale Central:

Get yourself a sugarcane juice on your way through to Buckingham Avenue, where you will find this place:

If it has a name, I couldn't find it. What you will find is delicious bbq quail on a stick, great roast pork rolls and (upstairs) a place called Frozen Smart that only sells frozen foods.. Head right, towards the end where the butchers are, head out across Balmoral Avenue and you have arrived at  Golden Plaza:

Phew. It's pretty non-descript inside but seems popular enough. The shops are more of the same, really.
