There’s something a little bit la-di-dah about a launch. So I was feeling a little fancy when I headed into town last Thursday for the swish soiree that The Butterworth Bar and Kitchen was putting on. It all felt a bit special to be on the guest list. In its former life The Butterworth was […]

A lunch meeting in town is always a delight and all the more so when it provides an opportunity to visit somewhere that I haven’t been before – like Grand Central Park. I remember hearing about this place when it first opened. Their point of difference to other new bars and restaurants that have opened […]

I bought a Scoopon Voucher a while back for a Twilight Dinner at Hippo Creek in Subiaco. It was described as a 4 course affair which started with half a dozen oysters, before moving on to a shared tasting plate. Then there were a few choices for mains, a shared dessert and a bottle of […]

March is ‘Eat Drink Perth’ month in Perth. A wonderful 31 days of special events at a variety of restaurants and bars, along with some big family events like the Twilight Hawkers Market, Perth Home Grown and Yum Cha in the Park. It’s brilliant and provides a great excuse to try out some of the […]

One of these events is scheduled for the 19th and 20th of October and is the Sunsuper Ride to Conquer Cancer®, which is benefiting the Western Australian Institute for Medical Research (WAIMR).

It’s always nice to get to try a new restaurant and it’s always a bonus when a new addition to the restaurant scene offers a voucher promotion to sample their fare at some bargain rate. I suppose I just use it as a good excuse to visit. When I saw a  deal for 353 on […]
