I love a steak sandwich. Such a solid lunch option. And I’m generally happy with a fairly simple affair. Nice thickly sliced toasted bread or a roll, a decent piece of steak, maybe some grilled onions, a few greens and something tomato-ish, whether that be fresh slices or a dollop of tomato sauce or perhaps even […]

I’d never been to Joondalup Resort before but I was invited along a cheese dinner they were holding at their Bistro 38 Restaurant in partnership with Yarra Valley Dairy. And I was pretty excited because I am a long time appreciator of cheese 🙂 Set amongst lush emerald fairways and natural bushland at Joondalup Resort, Bistro 38 […]

Many millions of dollars have been spent to give the Subiaco Hotel its long awaited and highly anticipated facelift. It’s been close to 18 months in the making and owners, Judy and Michael Monaghan, who have had the venue since 1971 are understandably excited! The doors to their flashed up venue swung open on Friday so […]

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it before but next year GG and I are holidaying in Europe. To say I’m a little excited about the six weeks of annual leave I have booked would be a massive understatement. To help with the planning process and for a little further inspiration, we may have also […]

Years ago GG and I decided we were an uber cultured pair and booked ourselves in for a night at the theatre to see Cyrano de Bergerac. Oh yes tres cultured! Only joking, but before we went to the show we went to the Globe Restaurant at the Parmelia Hilton for dinner. And I have […]

And so continued the breakfast bruschetta battle last week when I made a highly anticipated return to Sayers Sisters in Northbridge. Highly anticipated because Sayers are a consistent performer in the breakfast stakes, whether at this sister venue or their originals Sayers Food in Leederville. I think the fit out of Sayers Sisters is just […]

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 […]

For as long as I can remember Rendezvous in Scarborough has always been there. It’s as synonymous to the suburb as the blue house once was. I have two great memories of what I suspect I’ll always refer to as ‘Observation City’ or Ob City actually because I’m an Aussie and if we can abbreviate, […]

I often debate which I love more, burgers or pizza. I think at the end of the day I know that my appreciation for them both is by and large equally placed. Any day of the week if the offer was out there for either I would lock it in. Now the pendulum swung towards […]

We are spoilt bunch in the West these days. There are just so many lovely local producers in WA that make amazing food, drink and kitchen inspired homeware products. So I welcomed the news from Westfield Whitfords City that for a few coming Saturdays from 9am til 2pm they would be holding ‘ The Market’. […]
