Friday night marked the start of the WA Day Long Weekend. Good times and what better way to celebrate a 3-day break than with a dinner out with my handsome fellow. So we were booked in for a dinner at one of the fancy new establishments on the terrace – the Heritage Brasserie. I was […]

For me it’s just some kind of wonderful to know that you are booked in somewhere new and exciting for lunch. Even if it’s a work/businessy affair I tell you what, the morning just flies by when you know that come lunch time you’ll have a glass of something white in hand and the heady […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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://atomic-temporary-19383105.wpcomstaging.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 […]

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 […]

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…..
