I tried to go to Marumo last year when I first heard about it. A hidden gem tucked away in what had previously been a Leeming fish and chip shop, that was serving up amazing Japanese food. Now last year in May I had secured a booking for late November. Yep that’s how long their wait list was, […]

I don’t often head out for sushi. I’ve been a few times before but truth be told I’m not a massive fan of sushi with the seaweed on the outside. I find it can have quite a strong flavour. But I know now from the few times I have been out for a sushi lunch […]

April is a big month for Perth foodies. It signals the arrival of the Eat Drink Perth festival. It’s an impressive line up of degustation and progressive dinners, family style events, cooking demonstrations and even a massive and sure to be delicious food truck rumble – definitely something for everyone! To kick off this month long […]

I don’t eat sushi very often but after years of not wanting a bar of the stuff I’ve discovered an appreciation for it. Done right, done fresh, it’s actually pretty wonderful. I think it was when I tried it with the minimal seaweed on the inside as opposed to completely wrapped on the outside that […]

As a blogger it can be particularly delightful to receive the occasional invitation to a foodie event – tis all kinds of lovely. So when I received an email with an invitation to the soft opening launch of Fuku – Omakase and Teppanyaki Restaurant including a sumptuous teppanyaki degustation dinner it was very exciting. Fuku is […]

I don’t seem to buy nearly as many online vouchers these days as I initially did, but one caught my eye a while back, particularly given that it was so close to the office. The deal was for Ning Sushi House in Como and for the bargain price of $29 you were able to choo […]

It had been a long time, way too long since I’d last had a big bowl of beautiful ramen. In recent years, I’ve enjoyed the chilli chicken ramen from Wagamamas when I’d needed a fix, but I felt like venturing somewhere new and on a friend’s suggestion we decided to meet at Banzai Matsu Sushi in […]

It’s all a bit turning Japanese, turning Japanese I really think so at the moment. Well it felt that way when I ventured to another Japanese restaurant earlier this week with my sister, Miss A, in tow. I’d read through a few other bloggers reviews before my visit and it seemed to me they had […]

My love affair with Japanese food is only reasonably new, but now that I’m a fan I really can’t get enough. I’ve heard that there was a new Japanese restaurant in Northbridge called Aisuru Sushi and a girl from work had been and given it a rave review so I was really keen to go. So […]

As soon as I had heard that Nobu was going to be opening in Perth I knew I wanted to head along and check it out. For two reasons – firstly my appreciation for Japanese food had definitely stepped it up a notch during 2011 and secondly I was a big Iron Chef fan and […]
