The past month does feel like it’s been a delicious farewell tour of West Perth. My stomping ground on the work front for just over 6 years now. It honestly amazes me how fast that 6 years has gone by, but when I reflect more do much has happened in that time. Ahh listen to […]

Another day, another excuse to use a voucher and with this one the time was slightly more pertinent given my imminent departure from West Perth. It’s been my stomping ground for the last 6 years and it will be hard to go. So a while back I bought a jumponit voucher for a local eatering. For the bargain […]

One sunny Sunday afternoon GG and I jumped on the freeway and headed south for a visit to his parents in pictureque Serpentine. We’d called earlier to ask if they’d be able and after a slight delay because of some work on the freeway we arrived around 11ish. GG’s parents proposed that we take advantage […]

I was asked along to a work lunch the other week, which let’s face it, i’ve always considered to be a massive perk of my job. This time the location was decided to be Villa D’Este. A bit of an institution in West Perth. It’s been there as long as I have… 6 years now […]

I enter a fair few competitions and recently one of them scored me a lunch for two at the Pan Pacific for their Sunday Roast Buffet. An exciting prospect for me. I like a good buffet, so many fabulous possibilities! When we arrived on our chosen Sunday we were one of the first in the restaurant. […]

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 […]

My co-worker has been on leave touring sunny Europe with his lovely lady for 5 weeks. So it has meant that there hasn’t been that many opportunities for me to leave my desk for lunch during the week. And ok that has been tough because one big perk of my job is the occasion ‘work […]

In what was to be my last lunch with my old boss as part of his farewell tour I had a lunch lined up with him and a client at In Contro the week after he had lef (because his calendar had been so full on the down hill slide to his departure hes had […]

Five Bar has long been on a list on places I’d like to visit but had just never gotten around to. Tres slack of me I know. But on Sunday afternoon, I’d ticked the running box and had thought that I had wanted to visit the Good Food and Wine show. But as I drove […]

This is spicy pork. A favourite of many a gent in my office. I’ve only had it on two occasions in my life and this time it was because the boss was leaving and it was his favourite Friday fare. So the new work team wandered down the road to the West Perth food court. […]
