I grew up in Maylands. It’s a lovely suburb, right near the river, close to the city and in recent times there’s been plenty of work done to trend’ify the Eighth Avenue cafe strip. One of the new additions that has developed a fab reputation for itself is right on the corner and it’s called […]
Latest Foodie Adventures
Blackbird Restaurant
I’m always excited when I stumble across one of the many voucher websites and find one for a restaurant that I’ve always really wanted to visit. Such was the case on Stardeals a few weeks back when they had one for Blackbird Restaurant in East Perth. The deal was for a ‘Gourmet Lake View Lunch […]
Little Caesars – Hillarys
Ever since I visited the Leederville store earlier this year, I’ve been hankering to re-visit Little Caesars. There are so many wonderful pizzas on the menu and we only sampled two last time. I do have Theo’s cook book at home and have tried my hand at making a few but let’s face it, they are […]
Hippo Creek – Hillarys
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 […]
OP’s Tavern

George Street Bistro
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. […]
Outback Jacks Rockingham
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 […]
Divido
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 Contro
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 […]
