Spring time finally arrived in Perth on the weekend at long last! Blue skies and enough sunshine for shorts. Time to get some colour on my Snow White pins! GG and I decided we’d take advantage of the weather and head out to lunch. The warmer conditions made it feel like beer weather so we […]

Indian food is a joy. Indulgently delicious sauces, the delight of buttery naan bread, the heady spicy aromas as you open all the dishes when you arrive home. I do enjoy Indian. for my dinner. So last Thursday I had to head to the Galleria after work to pick up a new gym top so […]

I’m not entirely sure how I happened upon Chilli Orange. I think I was poking around urbanspoon one day and saw a review for it and noticed that it had some really positive feedback so I booked it in for a Thursday date night for the lovely GG and myself. It really isn’t too far […]

.. This summer, Chef Michelle Forbes and the rest of The Beaufort Street  Merchant + Trustee Bar & Bistro team will be getting their Spanish on .. I do enjoy a newbie. We are entirely spoilt for choice in Perth these days. It is literally every other week that somewhere new is swinging open its doors. […]

I feel very fortunate as a blogger to be introduced to some really interesting products. Receiving those sort of occasional emails really brighten my day 🙂 I was recently sent one from the team at Matale Chocolate – Thibault and Eloi. Matale are based in Melbourne and are bean to bar producers, they produce fine, ethical, dark chocolate […]

Organic, gluten free, dairy free & unnatural processed sugar free food. Welcome to Solomon’s Café. A relative newbie to the Beaufort Street strip, this addition comes courtesy of someone lesser known for their culinary exploits and better known for dropping some mad hip hop beats – Drapht, otherwise known as Paul Ridge. Mr Drapht has quite a […]

Divido is a long time favourite of GG and mine. It holds a special place for us because it’s the first place we enjoyed a degustation dinner together in March 2009. Now Divido had actually been open since 2005 and way back then their specialty was very popular wood fired pizzas. I didn’t get to […]

Fremantle is one part of Perth that I haven’t spent nearly enough time exploring on the food front. I know there are plenty of delicious fresh food options there (like the Freo Markets!) and lots of great spots that I’ve heard many foodie folk talk up, but it has always felt a long way from […]

Earlier in the year, on the other side of the world from me in New York City a chef called Dominique Ansel for Dominique Ansel Bakery would create a pastry treat that would capture the attention of the globe and of this fare food blogger. I’m of course talking about the Cronut. Now a trademarked name […]

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 […]
