My love affair with Japanese food is only reasonably new, but now that I’m a fan I really can’t get enough. I’ve heard that there was a new Japanese restaurant in Northbridge called Aisuru Sushi and a girl from work had been and given it a rave review so I was really keen to go. So […]

Any excuse for a nice meal is fine by me and what better reason to don on a fancy frock and head out for something of the degustation persuasion than for GG’s Birthday! And this year it meant a return visit to Red Cabbage. We’d been to Red Cabbage for New Years and really enjoyed […]

Many years ago I was introduced to the wonder of the Turkish Gözleme. A Gözleme is a savoury traditional Turkish hand made and hand rolled pastry. Fresh pastry is rolled out, filled and sealed, then cooked over a griddle. The name derives from the Turkish word göz meaning eye. One of my favourite places in […]

Back in late February I was reading the Fresh section of the West Australian and heard that a new addition to the Beaufort St strip was expected – El Publico (http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/lifestyle/a/-/lifestyle/12992400/holy-guacamole-it-s-the-real-deal/).

GG and I are currently working through our to do list ahead of our big day later in the year. And I’m pleased to say we are slowly getting there. To that end we headed into town on the weekend to suss out a few things. Ahead of this though, we were both starving so […]

In another life I used to spend a lot of time at the Como Hotel. Ok well not a lot of time, but I went there reasonably frequently. Actually even spent New Years there one year….. left with an armload of helium balloons….. I returned there last week for a catch up with a lovely […]

Super excited for three reasons a few weekends ago – firstly it was a looooong weekend (woohoo!), secondly I was going out for Indian good and finally I was catching up some good friends who I hadn’t seen in a whole. Three times yay! We’d made a booking at the 2 Fat Indians, where I […]

Honestly it was like eating in an oven…… It was Friday night and it been one of those days when as the sun went down the heat did just not seem to abate – you’d think living in Perth my whole life I would be used to this summer stretching into autumn caper…. But alas […]

Many moons ago I went to uni at Curtin in Bentley. I was there for four and a half years all up and I have such fond memories of my time there….. despite all those horrendous exams I had to get through J There’s just something about the whole uni lifestyle that is wonderful. Your […]
