Social media is a fabulous thing for alerting food fanatics to fabulous new local places that they just must visit. I’d consider myself somewhat of a food fanatic and lately as I’ve perused Facebook and Instagram a name that I kept seeing was Cecchi’s. “Where is this Cecchi’s?” I had wondered. So a quick google […]

Back in the day when GG and I first moved in together one of the places we used to visit often was a local Italian restaurant called Siderno Caffe & Ristorante. It’s on Main Street and has been there longer than we’ve been in the neighbourhood (which I realized in March this year will be […]

Public House is perched on the corner of Adelaide Terrace and Victoria Avenue in town and it’s a fabulous addition to the East Perth fringe. It’s the newest venue for the talented Publican Group which has also brought to Perth – The George, The Bryneleigh, The Aviary and also Wolf Lane. In mid November I was asked […]

 GG started working from home earlier in the year. Took the brave step of going out on his own and so far, so good. Actually he’s done exceptionally well. I’m very proud of him 🙂 But there have been a few occasions when he’s been so busy that he’s had to work all through the weekend. […]

I don’t think I could ever be described as much of a night owl. Sure I am all for a loooooong, leisurely evening of fine dining and a few cheeky glasses of vino but I’m generally perched at the same locale for these proceedings and wouldn’t tend to go to more than one spot in […]

The benefit of a work lunch can be twofold – firstly the chance for a temporary sojourn from the daily grind and in some instances also the chance to try somewhere new. Such was the case on a recent work lunch at Firewater Grille, a new addition to the Duxton Hotel. They’ve gone with quite […]

I recently received an email asking me to hold the date for a Bloggers Dinner that was being put on at the Naked Fig. How delightful! Always nice to try somewhere that I haven’t been before and such a treat to be invited! Especially in the presence of some fellow bloggers 🙂 Now as mentioned […]

I bought a Scoopon Voucher a while back for a Twilight Dinner at Hippo Creek in Subiaco. It was described as a 4 course affair which started with half a dozen oysters, before moving on to a shared tasting plate. Then there were a few choices for mains, a shared dessert and a bottle of […]

Have you ever been to a restaurant and looked over the menu and faced a massive dilemma about what to choose because there are so many delicious sounding options available? What if you didn’t have to? What if someone said “Well instead of choosing how about you get to try every entrée and every main […]
