Organic, gluten free, dairy free & unnatural processed sugar free food. Welcome to Solomon’s Café. A relative newbie to the Beaufort Street strip, this addition comes courtesy of someone lesser known for their culinary exploits and better known for dropping some mad hip hop beats – Drapht, otherwise known as Paul Ridge. Mr Drapht has quite a […]

Divido is a long time favourite of GG and mine. It holds a special place for us because it’s the first place we enjoyed a degustation dinner together in March 2009. Now Divido had actually been open since 2005 and way back then their specialty was very popular wood fired pizzas. I didn’t get to […]

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 […]

Earlier in the year, on the other side of the world from me in New York City a chef called Dominique Ansel for Dominique Ansel Bakery would create a pastry treat that would capture the attention of the globe and of this fare food blogger. I’m of course talking about the Cronut. Now a trademarked name […]

I don’t eat sushi very often but after years of not wanting a bar of the stuff I’ve discovered an appreciation for it. Done right, done fresh, it’s actually pretty wonderful.

I was long overdue for a catch up with one of my friends, Miss P, and it was proving difficult to find a time in the evenings when we could align our calendars for dinner. To fix this problem, we decided it would be easier to line up an early rendezvous for breakfast before work. We […]

 GG started working from home earlier in the year. Took the brave step of going out on his own and so far, so good. Actually he’s done exceptionally well. I’m very proud of him 🙂 But there have been a few occasions when he’s been so busy that he’s had to work all through the weekend. […]

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 […]

Rockpool is one of those places I had long meant to visit and just never got around to. So recently GG and I decided to line up a special “date night” and Rockpool came to mind. To snag a Saturday evening we needed to book about a month out but having it in the calendar […]
