I’ve been to Hippo Creek twice already, both times to the Subiaco restaurant, so when I saw a Scoopon voucher for Hippo Creek in Hillarys I was most pleased because it meant I’d have a chance to take GG along and he loves his steak! So I bought the voucher ages ago and we finally […]

GG had been given a Freedom voucher for Christmas and was taking his sweet time using it so we finally found a Saturday when there was spare time to peruse their wares and we did need a new cupboard so at least we had a target in mind. We’d been at the gym in the […]

For the last night of the 4-week wine course that GG and I were doing they arranged a dinner where a three course meal was matched with tastes of two different wines and then discussed. We were only a small group just 11 but it was nice and cosy at our table at George St Bistro. […]

A last minute  invitation and GG and I found ourselves out to dinner last Sunday night at Outback Jacks in Rockingham instead of at home eating leftovers. We had driven down to Serpentine earlier in the day to visit GG’s parents and it was also his sisters birthday that day who also lived down that […]

GG and I have been together now for more than 3 years – amazing to me, where does the time go! And our first every degustation meal together was for his 29th birthday and we went to Divido. It’s a fairly small restaurant, quaint you could say or maybe cosy is a better word, and […]

In what was to be my last lunch with my old boss as part of his farewell tour I had a lunch lined up with him and a client at In Contro the week after he had lef (because his calendar had been so full on the down hill slide to his departure hes had […]

Five Bar has long been on a list on places I’d like to visit but had just never gotten around to. Tres slack of me I know. But on Sunday afternoon, I’d ticked the running box and had thought that I had wanted to visit the Good Food and Wine show. But as I drove […]

The second week of GG and my wine course rolled around before we knew it and this week for our quick dinner venture we headed to The Vic. They don’t start serving dinner til 5pm on a Wednesday but after realising how close Claremont actually was we knew we’d have plenty of time. I’ve been […]

I’m doing a 4 week wine tasting course with GG at the moment, which starts at 6pm in Claremont. It means it a bit of a challenge for us both to fit dinner in between when we finish work and when the course starts. One our first week we headed to the Subiaco Hotel, arriving […]

Having enjoyed my first visit so much I was pleased when I found out that my work’s End of Financial Year function was to be held at Hippo Creek in Subi. We were a group of 16 and on the night of our function it was us and then the rest of the restaurant was […]
