Ever since I read the menu I have been hanging out to get myself to The Merrywell. The newest addition to the ever increasing plethora of restaurants at the Crown Perth, this one comes courtesy of an American fellow called Sammy DeMarco. His first restaurant was in Atlantic City, but since then he has expanded […]

GG and I were married in early August and as I discovered weddings, they don’t just happen. They are a lot of work and the happy couple definitely needs the help of many people. My parents were incredibly helpful and it’s so hard to know how to say thanks but we thought a nice dinner […]

Recently a fellow from work was having a birthday do at the Byrneleigh in Nedlands. Now the Bryneleigh is a lovely spot that I have visited before, but it can also be nice to try somewhere new and from reading a fellow blogger’s peachy blog I had my heart set on somewhere just down the road […]

Ever since I read this article I had my heart set on donning a beret and visting the joint venture of two star Frenchy french star chefs that have long since glittered on the Perth food scene, from The Loose Box, Alain Fabregues and from Choux Cafe, Emmanuel Mollois.

It’s a Saturday night, your favourite footy team is playing in a final and you want to be able to completely devote your full attention to the match.

There’s something quite special about looking through a good cook book. The joy of perusing the recipes and more so being able to look at the stunning pictures of the finished products and pondering whether it would be something I could actually make? 🙂 As is often the case it can sometimes be who you […]

We are being spoilt with some incredibly lovely weather in Perth in the last week or so and often when I sit at my desk at work, I look out the window and I wish I could go out to lunch somewhere fabulous. Well I got my wish on Thursday, as there was a fellow […]

I’ve been to The Brown Fox in West Perth once or twice before and while it had been a while since my last visit I continue to marvel at the stellar job they have done on the fit out of the place. It does look wonderful, I particularly love the pressed tin ceiling, adorned with ornate chandeliers. […]

I was away for just about all of August, which is a long time to go without seeing your best friend! So on arriving back recently, a catch up was definitely in order. Now Mrs M had been slightly preoccupied for a few Saturdays and Sundays with painting and the fun on the front was […]
