A recent visit to Panchos was like a blast from the past. Reminiscent of uni days and a big, rowdy night out with mates. Now I suppose on my visit it fell more so in the latter category. A dinner catch up with some choice gals that I know. I’m not sure why Panchos had […]

Well I scream, you scream…. We all scream for ice cream! Don’t we just 🙂  Well if you want a reason to really scream then let’s all give a shout for the arrival of Ben & Jerry’s to town! I have partaken in more than a few tubs of delicious Ben & Jerry’s flavours on […]

On Monday I ventured to City Farm in East Perth for the first time. What a picturesque little venue it is, complete with vegie patches, a big tin shed and a wind mill. It is quite the stark contrast to the rest of the area which is dotted with office buildings. You could almost convince […]

A sunny Sunday can present the perfect opportunity for an impromptu lunch excursion. Such was the case recently for GG and I and we got it in our minds that we fancied some sea-side dining. So on perusing a few menus online we decided to give Clancy’s in City Beach a whirl. We arrived nice […]

The benefit of a work lunch can be twofold – firstly the chance for a temporary sojourn from the daily grind and in some instances also the chance to try somewhere new. Such was the case on a recent work lunch at Firewater Grille, a new addition to the Duxton Hotel. They’ve gone with quite […]

Particularly when the food is cheese. I do enjoy cheese 🙂 Such was […]

I really love Italian food. The indulgence of fresh pasta, the delight of a proper Italian pizza – generally light on the toppings but big on the taste, lovingly prepared tomato sauces, the rich flavours of osso bucco, delicious anti pasto – from cured meats, arancini, cheeses…. the list of decadent Italian cuisine that I […]

Since the doors swung open I’ve wanted to go to Jamie’s Italian. But two things were in my way. One of them was a queue out the door that was miles long and secondly was that I am not a patient person and my desire to spend hours in a line was low. So how […]

For Christmas GG’s sister gave us a voucher to head along for a Speed Grazing Tour of the Swan Valley. It sounded interesting and the food element sounded right up our alley so I made a booking for what seemed like was way in the future, but soon enough April rolled around and it was […]

GG’s birthday is actually on March 18th so I knew when the Monday rolled around, which was the last day of our South West mini break, that I wanted to book in somewhere special for us. Now an incredibly special spot in the South West is Cape Lodge. In my mind, just wistfully wanting over […]
