A new friend of mine recently decided that it was high time that a group of us headed out to explore the new and improved Claremont Quarter. Some quality time perusing the shops and generally just hanging out did strike me as a delightful way to spend a morning. Having heard many a good thing […]

My nana lives in Glen Forrest and she’s slightly set in her ways when it comes to eating out. One place on her approved list is a Chinese Restaurant on Greenmount Hill called DragonVillage. It has been there for years and I’ve been there many a time. We decided to visit here for mother’s day […]

One of the perks of my job is the occasional work lunch. Really breaks a day up and let’s face it I like to eat out, so its just another excuse 🙂 So last week I was more than a little excited to have a lunch at Raffles pencilled in my calendar. It was a […]

I quite like baking and there is something special about making something from scratch. Having said that there is also something nice about simplicity and when a lovely lady I work with mentioned that her daughter was having a fundraiser for school that involved cookie dough I was intrigued.

It had been far too long since I got together with some of my favourite gals – Maree and Lisa – for a gathering of our cooking club, J’dore Cuisiner. We hadn’t managed to get together since our Thanksgiving cook-up in late November. Wow time just goes so quick. But here we were, Saturday morning […]

The wonder of a good sandwich should never be overlooked. I’d known for a while that Mondos did roast meat rolls/sandwiches on Saturday mornings and had been keen for a good long while to try them out. As fate would have it my cooking club were on the hunt for rabbit on the weekend and […]

My work has a social club but one of the biggest struggles seems to be getting everyone on board with things that are arranged. On our latest outing we decided to keep it nice and easy and organised to have a sun downer at Terrace Lounge Bar in Perth. Our office is located in West […]

One of my favourite things about all these voucher websites – scoopon, spreets, jumponit, etc – is that its a brilliant excuse to head out to eat at places I probably might not have thought to go to. Let’s face it there are a zillion places to eat in Perth, just trying to work my […]
