A discussion I’ve previously had with GG is around whether you should eat a cheese course ahead of dessert. He feels that you should, while I feel cheese is such a lovely way to end a meal and you can linger longer over a cheese plate. Regardless though we are both big cheese fans – […]
Latest Foodie Adventures
Smoult’s Continental Deli
Only a short post here, but this is basically just an ode to the magic of Smoult’s Continental Deli’s basil pesto. I don’t know what magic ingredient they include in their recipe, but I swear it is addictive. Some beautiful bread (Toasted Turkish bread, fresh baguette, even a loaf of Tip Top would work) and […]
Varq Indian Restaurant
It’s really no secret. Indian Food – I’m a big fan of it. And a new Indian restaurant that I’ve wanted to visit for a while now has been Varq. Owned by a lovely young lady that my sister went to school with, along with her husband who is the Chef, it’s been open in […]
Dear Friends – Christmas Time
Well Christmas in Perth, it tends to be a hot affair and this year did not disappoint. The Christmas/New Year period delivered a blistering heatwave that left the majority melting! Christmas Day itself was just a touch under 40 degrees but I’m sure it was north of this figure further inland, for instance in the […]
Elmars in the Valley
My Nana hails from Germany and is a little partial to a visit to Elmar’s in the Swan Valley. So given I knew I wasn’t going to be able to see her on Christmas Day I planned for GG and I to take her for lunch at Elmar’s on the Sunday before. The weather was on […]
2012 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: 19,000 people fit into the new Barclays Center to see Jay-Z perform. This blog was viewed about 72,000 times in 2012. If it were a concert at the Barclays Center, it would take about 4 sold-out performances for that […]
Jacs Applecross – revisited
Tis the season to be jolly and heading out for a nice breakie before work on a Friday certainly fits the jolly bill in my book 🙂 Jacs was a place I had visited for lunch earlier in the year and loved and then also caught up with a friend for dinner. Both of those […]
Chobani
Every now and then I’m lucky enough to receive an email letting me know about a fab new foodie product that is about to hit the Perth shelves. In this instance it was a product that was going to feature in Perth fridges. Introducing Chobani Yoghurt. Chobani is pronounced “CHO-BAHN-KNEE,” and is Greek for the word “shepherd” […]
Apple Daily Bar and Eating House
Apple Daily Eating House and Bar is a place I’ve wanted to visit since Print Hall first swung open its doors. Its menu looked so enticing! Thankfully the opportunity to visit presented when a bank I deal with asked if I would be keen to catch up there for lunch one day. It wasn’t a […]
Duende
Duende. It was one of those places that I’d been to a few times and on the first two visits I had been really impressed with the food, then on the third visit, it didn’t quite live up to the high expectations I had had and I had just never gotten around to heading back. So this […]
Perth Munchkin
I love Perth and I love food. So many amazing places to visit.
These are just my thoughts on the different places I've visited.... plus an occasional recipes.
My blog is my creative outlet. It's fun and it's a wonderful excuse to eat out every now and then :)
