I get a little overwhelmed in food courts on occasion. I usually arrive ridiculously hungry and desperate for a tasty lunch, but then I aimlessly drift from outlet to outlet trying to decide what to have. And more often than not I’ll just stick with what I know, the old favourites, but who knows what […]

How fortuitous can timing get? Moving office to Brookfield Place and then being asked to be a Brookfield Place Cafe Court Ambassador! Like I needed more of a reason to visit my new local cafe court! Actually I just love the fact that my new office is located so close to a cafe court and in this program I […]

It can be tricky business sometimes when you end up having a late lunch and know you have dinner plans, so you really need to curtail normal ordering habits. Such was the conundrum (and first world problem) I experienced on Saturday. GG and I had spent a few hours shopping in the big city and […]

Hip hip hurray and a very happy birthday to Public House. The youngest venue in the Publican Groups WA stable, it has a real South American flare. This was the inspiration for their first birthday party. Each guest received a passport when they arrived which took you on a tour of South America. As you […]

There probably aren’t too many restaurateurs who would open their third venue and then immediately launch into their fourth. A really ambitious fourth at that. But such is the drive of Andy Freeman and Sam Astbury that the business partners and their team took it all in their stride when they recently opened The Flour Factory. […]

Last night the announced the 2014 WA Good Food Guide award winners. The crème de la crème of the West Aussie restaurant scene assembled and I was lucky enough to head along and rub shoulders with some of my favourite Perth chefs. So that was a bit of fun. It has been an exciting year […]

 I’m guessing it is pretty apparent from my recent announcements on social media that my office has moved. We’ve shifted from Mt Pleasant, which as the name suggests was pleasant enough and have packed up shop and moved into the big city. To say I was excited about the move would be something of an […]

I love food. Like so very, very much. It brings me joy to sample a carefully crafted canapé, enjoy fun and creative flavours in a dish, marvel at the wonder of fresh, local produce or be presented with an incredibly beautiful meal. Happy, happy sighs. Chefs are such artists. And we are a lucky bunch […]

I am a massive fan of Brookfield Place. They have done such wonderful work in creating a high quality dining precinct with some real top end eateries. Way back in the day I went to the Trustee. I actually think I had lunch there the first week it opened. And since then I’ve called in […]

In the past fortnight or so I have been to La Veen three times. Fairly high stats given that prior to this I’d not been once. Don’t get me wrong I’ve wanted to go for a while, but King Street in town isn’t currently close to the office so it was going to need to be […]
