With its modern, spacious fit out that includes plenty of great outdoor seating options for sunny days and balmy nights, a solid menu of very tasty offerings and a drinks list long enough to keep everyone happy it’s definitely a great place for a meal or to […]

The signature event of the Gascoyne Food Festival celebrations is Friday’s Long Table Lunch. It is a lavish four-hour affair, so entirely indulgent to lunch for that long and I’ll admit that long lunches are some of my favourites, so I was so looking forward to this event. Held at the stunning Bentwater Plantation, long […]

As a proud West Australian I feel quite passionately about the importance of supporting our hard working farmers and producers. They put in incredibly long hours, working the land so that West Aussies can enjoy the best of the best on the produce front. And it is something that needs to be appreciated. Mother Nature […]

I have lived in Western Australia my whole life and call it slackness on my part, but I’ve never been further north than Monkey Mia. It isn’t that there wasn’t appeal in exploring more of the state, it was just something I hadn’t gotten around to as yet. You see such stunning pictures of the […]

We were at Sugar & Nice in Inglewood to preview a collaboration between their uber talented team and pastry chef young […]

Now as I hope is vastly apparent I’m very much Team WA and love to wave the flag for all things Perth food, but I’ll be honest, I don’t mind at all when a few East Coasters make a brief appearance in our fair city. Especially when one of them has a piece of cake […]
