Perth is awash with new venues these days and I. Just. Love. It! Something new is opening almost every other week and last week was no exception. A quaint little roof top bar with a wall of welcoming greenery and a glowing yellow sign beckoning you closer. Welcome to The Sherry. You can find this […]

There probably aren’t too many restaurateurs who would open their third venue and then immediately launch into their fourth. A really ambitious fourth at that. But such is the drive of Andy Freeman and Sam Astbury that the business partners and their team took it all in their stride when they recently opened The Flour Factory. […]

Back in August I had the exciting opportunity to come up with a few recipes for Belmont Forum. I headed along to their shopping complex and made a bee line for the fresh food precinct. They have a really solid selection of fresh fruit and vegies, lovely freshly baked bread, all your poultry needs sorted […]

I really enjoy cooking. It can be such a relaxing way to spend an afternoon, pottering around the kitchen, trying out a new recipe. And I don’t profess to be brilliant at it, but I very much like to try. And what do they say about practise? It makes perfect or something? So when Belmont […]

Recently I had a later than anticipated night out at the fabulous first birthday soiree at Laneway Lounge and had a breakfast scheduled for the following morning with a friend at Uncle Joe’s Mess Hall. I hadn’t been to Uncle Joe’s before, but as soon as I saw the menu I was pleased with our […]

GG and I have been fortunate enough now to visit the US twice. On both trips we found ourself at a place called Whole Food Markets on the nights when we couldn’t be bothered heading out for dinner or when we had an early flight and needed to pack a breakfast. Wholefood Markets are amazing […]

Earlier in the year, on the other side of the world from me in New York City a chef called Dominique Ansel for Dominique Ansel Bakery would create a pastry treat that would capture the attention of the globe and of this fare food blogger. I’m of course talking about the Cronut. Now a trademarked name […]

I was long overdue for a catch up with one of my friends, Miss P, and it was proving difficult to find a time in the evenings when we could align our calendars for dinner. To fix this problem, we decided it would be easier to line up an early rendezvous for breakfast before work. We […]

The Good Food and Wine Show is one of those events that I’ve always wanted to go to, but just never got around to. Strange because I am partial to both good food and good wine J Thankfully though the stars aligned this year. I was fortunate enough to receive a ticket from Devahasdin, so […]

I’ve enjoyed previous visits to Duende, so when I heard the crew behind Duende had launched a new venue in West Perth I was keen to visit. There seemed to be quite a buzz about the place and I’ll admit that when I saw a few pics of Gordon St Garage pop up on Instagram […]
