Korean food is not something that I'm intimately familiar with, but I am always very interested to try new things, especially at a place like The Gaya, which strives to use Korean flavours and techniques in a modern way. "Fusion" has become somewhat of a buzz word in the culinary space as of late, and [...]
Australia does Asian food well. Maybe adapted to our palates so not always completely authentic in the choice of ingredients and cooking methods, it is never too hard to find really high quality food inspired by the flavours and dishes of Vietnam, Thailand, Japan and China. One of the newer places to open its doors [...]
Chik and Kent - whose name pays homage to Chikmagalur, a region in India known as the "land of coffee", and L.P Kent, an Englishman who planted the Doddengudda Estate - is an Indian restaurant situated towards the quieter end of Murray Street in the Perth CBD. It is one of the few places in [...]
I was walking back home from Northbridge about a week ago and noticed this small cafe on William Street that I'd never seen before. I don't know what it was, but it looked like the cooler sort of cafe; the sort that does good coffee with a unique food offering. I made a mental note [...]
Victoria Park has its fair share of very mediocre eating places, but it also has a bunch of really cool little cafes that do great breakfasts and brunches. Sixteen Ounces is on the Albany Highway and opened up earlier this year. Before going we had a quick look at the menu to decide what we [...]
New places are popping up all the time in Perth, so I'm never surprised to come across a new restaurant, cafe or bar when I'm doing my usual back and forth between the shopping district and my apartment. Walking down the same road every time gets boring, so I sometimes try to change up the [...]
Father's Day breakfast at No. 4 Blake Street in North Perth. The dishes were generally unique, tasty, and looked amazing! Enjoy this brief photoblog of some of the unique dishes on the menu. Buckwheat and quinoa porridge, macerated strawberries, back puffed rice, banana and coconut French toast with caramelised milk espuma, red [...]
Hungover after a heavy night out, sometimes nothing pleases more than a nice, heavy, soul-comforting meal to satiate the morning's hunger. Although I was not at all hungover (perhaps a little tired from nearly thirty hours of travel from the USA), The Old Crow in Northbridge was certainly a welcomed treat. Unlike the Tuck Shop [...]
Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Mexico. Ecuador, Venezuela, Colombia, and Peru. Big El's Latin American Fusion is one of the newest eateries to pop up in Northbridge, bringing to Perth some much needed Mexican and South American food. Headed by stockbroker-turned-restauranteur Logam, Big El's presents a menu of modern dishes from the far south, bringing together [...]
The Wild Duck restaurant once upon a time lived in Albany, in the far south of Western Australia. In 2012, however, it relocated closer to the Perth city, where it now lives on Hampden Road in Nedlands, not far from The University of Western Australia. I studied at the university for six years and had [...]
