There are so many cutie patootie cafes that have opened around town this year and with social media inundated with pics of their beautiful breakfast offerings, I suspected that a weekday early morning attack was my best bet to visit one. I just don’t love crowds or lining up, I’m a little set in my […]

When a new place opens around town and the hype is super positive it means there are fairly high expectations when you go for a visit. But as I found out when I recently dined at Shadow Wine Bar they are embracing the influx of praise and ensuring that new visitors are similarly as impressed. GG […]

No Mafia. Possibly the narrowest little restaurant in Northbridge, but despite its slight size it is definitely packing a punch in the food stakes. Taking inspiration from the recipes and ethos of Southern Italy, No Mafia takes a modern approach to traditional Italian Cuisine with a focus on using the best and freshest local products. The food is […]

The Standard. If I think about this relative newbie’s name, it could be considered a fairly bold proclamation. Were they saying that they were the new standard for food in Perth? Ooo la la. I liked their style and I was excited to see what standard they were setting. I had seen much social media […]

Let me start by saying that I don’t profess to be any sort of food expert. I enjoy different dishes from around the globe but perhaps some are slightly more familiar than others. Take Chinese for instance. I know there are dishes that I like and growing up there were definitely some firm take away favourites […]

I just love to visit a new eatery. All the more so when it’s the second venue for a place I already like, because I figure if I like the first place then invariably I will like the second. So when the illustrious Five Bar crew recently opened Lot Twenty (I like the number theme […]

I lined up what can only be described as an ambitious calendar for dining out last week. And while on paper I was very excited about all the good eating I’d be doing, I was also conscious that the battery would be winding down slightly after three consecutive nights out. But it was Thursday night […]

Woooooh ooooo ooooo oooo, for the longest time 🙂 Ok so I was singing the catchy Billy Joel tune For The Longest Time as we drove towards Brika, because for the longest time, well at least since it opened, I had put Brika at the top of the list of places I desperately wanted to […]

As soon as I heard of its impending opening, I got it in my head that I wanted to visit Darlings Supper Club. Maybe it was the catchy name, maybe it was that Andy Freeman has previously opened some stellar venues (such as Luxe and Varnish on King) but I think it’s was the whole […]

And so continued the breakfast bruschetta battle last week when I made a highly anticipated return to Sayers Sisters in Northbridge. Highly anticipated because Sayers are a consistent performer in the breakfast stakes, whether at this sister venue or their originals Sayers Food in Leederville. I think the fit out of Sayers Sisters is just […]
