The Mantle is one cool venue. Sort of a refurbed warehouse style space, it has been sectioned off into several different dining venues. You want a burger? Head along to Short Order Co. Or pizza, off you go to Magna Pizza. Or if you fancy a small shared plates experience at an eatery that has signed […]

‘I got crabs at Clancy’s’! As far as tag lines go, it does get your attention. And it’s true. Shark Bay crabs have descended on all Clancy’s venues in abundance and they have some excellent specials on offer for the next 12 weeks. On Wednesday in Freo and Thursdays in City Beach, Canning Bridge and Dunsborough it’s Crab […]

I don’t live close to Fremantle so I wouldn’t say that it’s a suburb I visit frequently, but over the course of a week I called into May Street Larder twice, East Freo was in focus. The first visit was with my good friend Mrs P, aka @theholynailperth, for a breakfast adventure. We were both […]

A new chef in the kitchen creating new menus is an exciting thing. All the more so when the new chef has the creative flair of Melissa Palinkas. You may have previously enjoyed Chef Melissa’s food in Mt Hawthorn at The Cabin or at one of her pop up Alphabet Soup Dining events at various […]

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 […]

I am not a particularly ‘arty’ person. I work in finance by day, which can be quite black and white and truth be told my blog is my creative outlet, my rainbow. But I do enjoy art. Strolling around a gallery can be a nice way to spend an afternoon. And some folks are just […]

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 […]

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 […]

It felt like quite the adventure last week when I rugged myself up and ventured into Fremantle on a Monday night. Now I’ll be the first to admit is that Freo is no where near home. It’s a hell of a long drive away, so why, why was I driving so far? Well I had […]

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. […]
