I used to work in West Perth. That was nearly 2 years ago now but I still miss it. I definitely like my current job but location wise, West Perth was just a lovely place to work. It also had some excellent places to lunch. Several top Italian eateries (Peruginos, Ville d’Este, Julio’s) and also […]

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. […]

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 […]

Pintxos. I had seen the word before but I wasn’t really sure what it was or how in the world it was pronounced. But if I’d made it to 30 years of age without knowing anything about pintxos why the interest now?   Well I was fortunate enough to receive an invitation to the launch […]

Freo is a lovely part of the world, but given where I live it often feels terribly far away, so I don’t get there too often. Recently though my sister and I were planning a catch up with Miss G, who worked out that way, so since we also both worked south of the river […]

A sunny Sunday can present the perfect opportunity for an impromptu lunch excursion. Such was the case recently for GG and I and we got it in our minds that we fancied some sea-side dining. So on perusing a few menus online we decided to give Clancy’s in City Beach a whirl. We arrived nice […]

So we had spent some quality time touring the region during the day but then spent a leisurely afternoon enjoying Smith’s Beach Resort’s facilities (the movie channel may have been involved). After all this chillaxing we decided to extend this enjoyment into the evening with a visit to the new addition to the Lamont’s chain…. […]

So we’d enjoyed olive oil at Olio Bello, then tapas at Morries, wine at Must, chocolate at the Margaret River Chocolate Factory, tasty sauces and jams at Providore and our final stop was at Wills Domain for a cheese platter and to partake in some of their wine.   Located in the world famous Margaret […]

So after all of the olive oil sampling both GG and I were a little peckish and I’d heard about a popular eatery in Margaret River called Morries. Now I knew it was in Margaret River but hadn’t actually thought to memorise the address. I was hopeful it was along the main drag in Margs, […]
