It had been a long time, way too long since I’d last had a big bowl of beautiful ramen. In recent years, I’ve enjoyed the chilli chicken ramen from Wagamamas when I’d needed a fix, but I felt like venturing somewhere new and on a friend’s suggestion we decided to meet at Banzai Matsu Sushi in… [Read more…]

For Disney fans out there I want you to think about Beauty and the Beast and that wonderful scene when they ask Belle to “Be Our Guest”. I had been singing this song in my head for the past few days since receiving an email from the team at Petite Mort asking if I would… [Read more…]

Balthazar was one of those places I’ve wanted to go to for a long time and had just never gotten around to. It’s had a consistent reputation as a solid fine dining establishment for many moons now and I’ve long been keen to sample the food that warranted such longevity. The stars aligned and an… [Read more…]

Many moons ago…. And we’ll say back in the day when I was spending the majority of my days in the Physics Department at Curtin, a good friend of mine and I used to be particularly partial to the gnocchi sorrentino from Siena’s in Mt Lawley. I had fond memories of our visits there over… [Read more…]

GG and I do not often head out for breakfast. It’s not that we mind early starts on the weekend, but there always seems to be a bit to do in the morning, so we find ourselves more at lunch or dinner. However last Saturday we had an early appointment in Joondalup (suit fittings for… [Read more…]

A nouveau wave of Mexican cuisine has washed over Perth and as a big Mexican food fan, I am all for it. Now I’d been to el PUBLICO (http://perthmunchkin.com/2012/03/31/el-publico/), twice now actually, but a place around before this Highgate haunt was not too far down the road in Northbridge – La Cholita. I’d been keen… [Read more…]

I do enjoy the indulgence of a long lunch. The sublime loveliness of spending some quality time with some of your nearest and dearest, with a cheeky vino in hand and an impressive menu ahead is one of my favourite things. And for many years now I’ve been lucky enough to procure tickets to the… [Read more…]

As you know one of my great discoveries this year has been my appreciation for Japanese food. From gyoza to edamame to teriyaki chicken to the night my friends and I tried 10 different types of sushi on the menu. All great times, with Japanese food. I’ve visited…..

Another lunch outting with my office’s fellow foodie was well overdue. But where should we go? Well as fortune would have it I stumbled across a review by Gail Williams for a place in Applecross called Jacs. It sounded delightful – the thought of a lazy lunch underneath a canopy of jacaranda trees, more than… [Read more…]

It’s all a bit turning Japanese, turning Japanese I really think so at the moment. Well it felt that way when I ventured to another Japanese restaurant earlier this week with my sister, Miss A, in tow. I’d read through a few other bloggers reviews before my visit and it seemed to me they had… [Read more…]
I love Perth and I love food. So many amazing places to visit.
These are just my thoughts on the different places I've visited.... plus a few recipes as well.
Early days, but it's fun and it's a wonderful excuse to eat out every now and then :)
