I recently received an email asking me to hold the date for a Bloggers Dinner that was being put on at the Naked Fig. How delightful! Always nice to try somewhere that I haven’t been before and such a treat to be invited! Especially in the presence of some fellow bloggers 🙂 Now as mentioned […]

Since the doors swung open I’ve wanted to go to Jamie’s Italian. But two things were in my way. One of them was a queue out the door that was miles long and secondly was that I am not a patient person and my desire to spend hours in a line was low. So how […]

So we’d enjoyed olive oil at Olio Bello, then tapas at Morries, wine at Must, chocolate at the Margaret River Chocolate Factory, tasty sauces and jams at Providore and our final stop was at Wills Domain for a cheese platter and to partake in some of their wine.   Located in the world famous Margaret […]

So after all of the olive oil sampling both GG and I were a little peckish and I’d heard about a popular eatery in Margaret River called Morries. Now I knew it was in Margaret River but hadn’t actually thought to memorise the address. I was hopeful it was along the main drag in Margs, […]

After such a huge day on the Saturday, GG and I decided that for our second full day down south, we would take ourselves on a ‘make your own foodie adventure’ and head towards Margaret River for some lunch. After studying the map, the first place I had my eye on visiting was Olio Bello. Olio Bello Extra Virgin […]

Now this news is unlikely to shock many but GG and I don’t mind the occasional glass of wine. And given we were spending quality time in a premium WA regiong we thought it best to book in a tour so that we could enjoy the experience of numerous different tastings together. So having put it […]

GG can be a tough fellow to buy a birthday present for, so this year I decided instead of finding a ‘thing’ to buy for him, it would be nice to whisk him away. So way back in December I had seen this special rate for accommodation at Smith’s Beach Resort, which just looked lovely, […]

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 […]

A lunch meeting in town is always a delight and all the more so when it provides an opportunity to visit somewhere that I haven’t been before – like Grand Central Park. I remember hearing about this place when it first opened. Their point of difference to other new bars and restaurants that have opened […]

I’ve enjoyed previous visits to Duende, so when I heard the crew behind Duende had launched a new venue in West Perth I was keen to visit. There seemed to be quite a buzz about the place and I’ll admit that when I saw a few pics of Gordon St Garage pop up on Instagram […]
