I used to work in West Perth. That was nearly 2 years ago now but I still miss it. I definitely like my current job but location wise, West Perth was just a lovely place to work. It also had some excellent places to lunch. Several top Italian eateries (Peruginos, Ville d’Este, Julio’s) and also […]

Wanting to continue enjoying the Spring sunshine fun after our lunching at the Oxford on Saturday we let the good times roll and decided we would lunch it up at the Royal on Sunday. I quite like the Royal, such a pretty spot along the Claisebrook Cove and just perfect for the ideallic conditions 🙂 […]

Spring time finally arrived in Perth on the weekend at long last! Blue skies and enough sunshine for shorts. Time to get some colour on my Snow White pins! GG and I decided we’d take advantage of the weather and head out to lunch. The warmer conditions made it feel like beer weather so we […]

.. This summer, Chef Michelle Forbes and the rest of The Beaufort Street  Merchant + Trustee Bar & Bistro team will be getting their Spanish on .. I do enjoy a newbie. We are entirely spoilt for choice in Perth these days. It is literally every other week that somewhere new is swinging open its doors. […]

Fremantle is one part of Perth that I haven’t spent nearly enough time exploring on the food front. I know there are plenty of delicious fresh food options there (like the Freo Markets!) and lots of great spots that I’ve heard many foodie folk talk up, but it has always felt a long way from […]

Once upon a time….. I have been a fan of the Classroom ever since my first visit. It is seriously like walking back into your childhood with their nostalgic collection of school bags, netball hoops and class pictures and then perching yourself at a school desk while you enjoy a drink. Ahh yes, I suppose […]

I’m a big fan of Brookfield Place. I think it’s an entirely brilliant addition to St George’s Terrace and has seen the opening of some very impressive restaurants. One of the more impressive eateries is the four storied Print Hall.    Print Hall, Perth’s first multi level dining and bar precinct, opened in the spring of […]

I don’t think I could ever be described as much of a night owl. Sure I am all for a loooooong, leisurely evening of fine dining and a few cheeky glasses of vino but I’m generally perched at the same locale for these proceedings and wouldn’t tend to go to more than one spot in […]

Rockpool is one of those places I had long meant to visit and just never got around to. So recently GG and I decided to line up a special “date night” and Rockpool came to mind. To snag a Saturday evening we needed to book about a month out but having it in the calendar […]
