I’m not sure why but when I first heard about The Classroom I was more than a little intrigued. First mention I saw was on Facebook and I thought the whole premise sounded pretty interesting. Then I saw the influx of positive reviews once it doors swung open and the school bell first rang and […]

In another life I used to spend a lot of time at the Como Hotel. Ok well not a lot of time, but I went there reasonably frequently. Actually even spent New Years there one year….. left with an armload of helium balloons….. I returned there last week for a catch up with a lovely […]

Many moons ago I went to uni at Curtin in Bentley. I was there for four and a half years all up and I have such fond memories of my time there….. despite all those horrendous exams I had to get through J There’s just something about the whole uni lifestyle that is wonderful. Your […]

My last attempt to dine at Five Bar had been thwarted and I’d ultimately been left lamenting what could have been….. what a time of woe it was. So when GG and I decided to try our luck at Five again on a fine Sunday lunchtime, I was unconvinced that we would be able to […]

I was very lucky last week to be asked to be a guest of The George to sample their newly revised Spring menu. I’d stopped by the George for a drink before and earlier in the year had been lucky enough to have previous Head Chef Telina Menzies around to my house as part of […]
