A short spiel for a short lunch….. well actually it wasn’t really that short – truth be told. It was last week and the temperature was about 300 degrees. I knew if I was walking somewhere for lunch that I wasn’t walking far. The heat was fairly confronting, smacking you in the face as soon […]

Recently I was chatting to a friend about how I was changing jobs and would be located in Mt Pleasant. As chance would have it he lived in Applecross so he mentioned that I’d have to stop past a Japanese place in Melville…. Ohnamiya. I went there and totally enjoyed it (http://atomic-temporary-19383105.wpcomstaging.com/2011/12/20/ohnamiya/). So I shot […]

What can I say….. I like to visit different restaurants and when my sister offered me the chance to use a voucher she’d bought on deals and wasn’t going to be able to use before it expired, well I wasn’t going to say no. Perhaps if I’d visited urbanspoon before I’d accepted this voucher and […]

I went to pick GG up from his friend’s house the other week after he had spent the day with his work crew in the Swan Valley for their Christmas party. His friend’s house was in Landsdale and when he arrived another couple there had mentioned they were headed to a local restaurant for dinner. […]

Saturday morning was a busy one. It was a flurry of activity in preparation for the arrival of GG and my combined Christmas present….. our shiny new Thermomix! It was getting dropped off at 9.30am so I was running around like a headless chook trying to get everything I needed sorted before our consultant arrived. […]

Following on from my visit to Hayashi, I decided I would continue my Teriyaki tour and the following week on a Thursday I drove myself down Canning Hwy to Ohnamiya. I had heard of this place, because I’d been supposed to catch up with friend there for dinner one night, but when we got there it […]

Well this post will likely only be short and sweet, but I thought it deserved a mention. In my effort to acclimatise myself with my new surroundings I’ve been wandering around at lunchtime to see what available to eat. I noticed a Japanese Restaurant called Hayashi was a stone’s throw from the office but never […]

All these bargain voucher websites can be a wonderful thing….. until you sort of forget about one and it’s a mad rush to squeeze in a dinner before the expiry date. Such was my quandary recently with a Rifos voucher I had purchased. I had initially gifted it to my brother but he hadn’t had […]

My sister, Miss A, and her boyfriend, Mr J, came for a visit from Christmas Island and kindly said they’d drive out my way and meet me for lunch somewhere in my new work neighbourhood. Not wanting to have to venture too far we decided on Clancy’s Fish Pub, right next door. It wasn’t overly […]

To round out my recent two week break between jobs I decided I’d use another voucher for an eating experience that I’d purchased and headed along to 150 East Bar and River Restaurant for a bite to eat with GG. The deal allowed us both to select a cocktail on arrival, which was slightly different […]
