It felt like quite the adventure last week when I rugged myself up and ventured into Fremantle on a Monday night. Now I’ll be the first to admit is that Freo is no where near home. It’s a hell of a long drive away, so why, why was I driving so far? Well I had […]

Last year in October I was lucky enough to secure tickets to the fifth Largesse Dinner. It was held at Divido and it was divine. Essentially it’s a gathering of 6 of Perth’s top chefs, who each prepared a course for a degustation style dinner in an effort to raise money for a chosen charity. We are […]

I finally got to go to breakfast at Sayers the other day. I had been years ago and had a really lovely time and since then I had wanted to head back. I finally got the opportunity early one week day and braved the cold weather and raced from my car into the warmth of […]

We have been spoilt with what one could argue is more than our fair share of quite pleasant winter weather in Perth this year. Sure there’s been rain and a few storms that haven’t been entirely pleasant, but by some stroke of luck there’s been more than a few weekends in there when the sun […]

I grew up in Maylands. Loved it. Right near the river, a quick train ride to the city, all in all not a bad spot. I don’t live in Maylands any more, but in recent years it’s been so wonderful to see all the lovely little cafes and cute delis and bakeries pop up along […]

There’s no two ways about it, Joondalup isn’t that close to my house. I mean, ok, it’s not that far but it feels a bit out of the way, so when a place was recommended to GG by a nice, young fellow he works with that was in Joondalup I was a little dubious. But apparently it […]

Pizza and weekends just seem to make good sense together. All the more when you have a Scoopon voucher in tow for the bargain price of $19 and you are able to order Two Large Gourmet Pizzas, Homemade Garlic Bread and 1.25L Soft Drink from a place advertised as Winner of Best Pizzas in WA! Enter […]

There was a lot of running around to do on Saturday in the downhill slide to a particularly big day later in the year for GG and myself. So we applied ourselves to ticking a few boxes on the list of little jobs that actually seems to be getting longer than shorter at this stage. […]

It’s always nice when someone you know has a good experience at a place and then invites you to head along with them to relive the magic. Well new magic for you and relived magic for them. Such was the invitation that GG and I received to try out Lamont’s Wine Store in Cottesloe with […]

I’ve read numerous articles about it and I can’t argue with what’s I’ve seen. It’s Viva la Revolution – there’s a been a steady wave of Frenchy French influence sweeping through the West. And I’ve had no complaints to date. I’d thoroughly enjoyed my visits to Petite Mort , was enamoured with the bistro style […]
