Pemberton Finger Limes – #WASignatureDish #BuyWestEatBest
Citrus caviar – have you tried it before? It’s wonderful and lucky for us in Western Australia it’s now grown very close to home in Pemberton. Say hello to Pemberton Finger Limes, a lovely WA company run by retired physiotherapists, Rob and Jill Baker. In looking for an interesting project they decided that they would […]
Windsor Hotel Bar & Restaurant
Since my initial foray into chicken parmigiana I was keen to relive the experience. So when GG and I caught up with his parents at the Windsor recently and I spied it on the menu – Chicken parmigiana, mixed salad & fries 25 – it presented the perfect opportunity to see how they dished up […]
Lamont’s Wine Store Cottesloe
It was a while back now but I had to give everyone a reminder that on one of the first Sundays of each month this year you should have totally have to get yourself to Lamonts Wine Store in Cottesloe. So on these first Sundays they put on a delicious tapas menu, available for either […]
WA Lamb – It’s Roasting Time! #WASignatureDish #Buywesteatbest
West Australian lamb is amazing. I’ve cooked up lamb chops and cutlets many a time, but recently I decided it was time for my lamb roasting debut. I’d roasted pork, beef and chook before but never gotten around to lamb – clearly an oversight! But with my family coming around for lunch recently it was […]
Toscanini’s
A good mixed meat roll in a wonderful thing and Toscanini’s in Applecross do a sterling job of knocking one up. With your choice of white or grainy rolls they are jammed packed with your choice of fresh salad – lettuce, tomato, grated carrot, Spanish onion and cucumber and then attention turns to meat. It’s […]
Juanita’s
I went to Juanita’s in Subi the other week. Up the end of Rokeby Road closer to Thomas than Hay I had actually not heard of it before. But I was catching up with a new friend, Lady B, to discuss all things WA Signature Dish and Juanita’s was chosen as our rendezvous spot. It’s a […]
Homemade Sausage Rolls – First go, getting it done!
I love sausage rolls. They are a delicious pastry wonder. Add tomato sauce and forget about it – just perfection! But I’ve never made them at home. But I thought the time was right to give them a red hot go. A wee while back I had ordered a magic box of beef from Hampshire Grass […]
Addison & Steele Specialty Coffee
I wouldn’t say that bagels are something I eat frequently. The only week of my life when I can recall them being my breakfast food of choice, was when GG and I first visited New York back in 2010. We were staying at a Best Western in midtown and breakfast was included, so each morning […]
