It’s a lunch I look forward to every year and this was to be the fifth time that GG and I had attended together. It is one of our favourite annual events and as fate would have it, this year it was held a month later than normal which aligned perfectly with GG and my […]

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 […]

There is something incredibly inspiring about breakfasting with people who speak with passion. And the variety of life is such that what people feel passionate about can very much be different strokes for different folks. Could be a passion for food or passion for a worthy cause or in this case a combination of both […]

Well I scream, you scream…. We all scream for ice cream! Don’t we just 🙂  Well if you want a reason to really scream then let’s all give a shout for the arrival of Ben & Jerry’s to town! I have partaken in more than a few tubs of delicious Ben & Jerry’s flavours on […]

On Monday I ventured to City Farm in East Perth for the first time. What a picturesque little venue it is, complete with vegie patches, a big tin shed and a wind mill. It is quite the stark contrast to the rest of the area which is dotted with office buildings. You could almost convince […]

The indulgence of fresh pasta, the delight of a proper Italian pizza – generally light on the toppings but big on the taste, lovingly prepared tomato sauces, the rich flavours of osso bucco, delicious anti pasto – from cured meats, arancini, cheeses…. the list of decadent Italian cuisine that I […]

Given that the first Sunday of April is fast approaching I wanted to let folks know about a wonderful event that Lamonts Wine Store in Cottesloe is holding…. and I’d almost expect that at this late stage that the April one could be sold out. On the first Sunday of each month Lamonts hold their […]

There’s something a little bit la-di-dah about a launch. So I was feeling a little fancy when I headed into town last Thursday for the swish soiree that The Butterworth Bar and Kitchen was putting on. It all felt a bit special to be on the guest list. In its former life The Butterworth was […]

March is ‘Eat Drink Perth’ month in Perth. A wonderful 31 days of special events at a variety of restaurants and bars, along with some big family events like the Twilight Hawkers Market, Perth Home Grown and Yum Cha in the Park. It’s brilliant and provides a great excuse to try out some of the […]
