A discussion I’ve previously had with GG is around whether you should eat a cheese course ahead of dessert. He feels that you should, while I feel cheese is such a lovely way to end a meal and you can linger longer over a cheese plate. Regardless though we are both big cheese fans – […]

My Nana hails from Germany and is a little partial to a visit to Elmar’s in the Swan Valley. So given I knew I wasn’t going to be able to see her on Christmas Day I planned for GG and I to take her for lunch at Elmar’s on the Sunday before. The weather was on […]

One Saturday GG and I were in search of something illusive – a bank that was open on the weekend. Thankfully after a quick google search we found a CBA that was open in Floreat, so off we set. After ticking off our banking requirements we both realised we were starving! It was a beautiful […]

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Especially on the terrace, what with the snazzy new lighting installation at Brookfield Place. From 7pm until late each night until Christmas, 5 of the beautiful heritage buildings along St Georges Terrace will be lit up with stunning Christmas projections. For young and old alike it’s all […]

Many moons ago I visited Christina’s in Vic Park for a work dinner. It was a while ago but my one recollection of the place was that the servings were giant. So when a return visit was proposed for a catch up with a few friends recently I was curious to see if my memories were correct. […]

We are being spoilt with some incredibly lovely weather in Perth in the last week or so and often when I sit at my desk at work, I look out the window and I wish I could go out to lunch somewhere fabulous. Well I got my wish on Thursday, as there was a fellow […]

I’ve been to The Brown Fox in West Perth once or twice before and while it had been a while since my last visit I continue to marvel at the stellar job they have done on the fit out of the place. It does look wonderful, I particularly love the pressed tin ceiling, adorned with ornate chandeliers. […]

I was away for just about all of August, which is a long time to go without seeing your best friend! So on arriving back recently, a catch up was definitely in order. Now Mrs M had been slightly preoccupied for a few Saturdays and Sundays with painting and the fun on the front was […]

I have meant to post this for the longest time……. slightly delayed. It was the last lunch GG and I had together before we became Mr and Mrs GG the next day 🙂 We decide that in amongst all the running around we had to do that taking five for a bite was the best […]
