The Brown Fox in West Perth has been one of those old gems I’ve been forever meaning to get to but this to eat list of mine just seems to keep growing. So I’m pretty excited about heading to The Brown Fox this Tuesday (21/4) for their Eat Drink Perth Cider & Sliders night. Have…
2014 has seen so many new Perth bars, restaurants and eateries pop up. It has been a fine balancing act trying out the new kids on the block and while supporting my old favourites! Here’s a bit of a round up of the newbies I’ve tried in the last 6 months that I haven’t already written…
I have a soft spot for The Brisbane Hotel as it was where burger boy and I’s romance first began. We were just colleagues at the time but I always looked forward to our Friday work drinks at The Brisbane. It started with a group of us but as our other colleagues moved onto new…
Given the cold wet weather, June’s Top 5 Perth Eats are mainly hot foods. The only exception is Hula Bula’s mocktail which I had to include as finding a good mocktail that doesn’t cost as much as an alcoholic beverage (so I recently discovered) isn’t easy! Top 5 Perth Eats #1 Stimulatte’s Shak Shuka ($14) -…
burger boy and I were invited to The Laneway Lounge’s launch of their Little Black Cocktail Book at the end of May. Entry into The Laneway Lounge that day was all very mysterious. Just like speakeasies during the United States Prohibition era in the 1920s / early 30s, there was a password to get in to…
I’ve been to Old Faithful Bar & BBQ twice in the last two weeks – once with my foodie friend N on a Friday night and last Thursday night with burger boy. I love my American BBQ food and I’m finding that I always seem to choose a casual meal in a funky atmosphere over…
I’ve been forever meaning to write about The Stables Bar, but it seems I always happen to eat there when the business was super busy or my day job at the time was full on. So after dinner with mushie the other week, I was absolutely determined to blog about our evening. At The Stables Bar…
burger boy and I were excited to get a preview of The Laneway Lounge’s new bar school which will be launching in April this year. Over a 45-minute intro class ($90 pp including canapés), we learned how to make four cocktails and the fundamentals of cocktail making from THE Grant Collins cocktail master and mixologist behind…
Earlier this month I was invited by Christina Pickard to attend her intimate School of Wine’s Christmas Wines class held at the Butterworth Bar & Kitchen. I’ve been trying to grow my wine knowledge so that I can better match wines with my favourite foods. It was great to learn from Christina Pickard who has…
Last month, burger boy and I were invited to the launch of Public House Kitchen & Bar, The Publican Group’s newest venue. I was personally excited as I’ve been watching the St George Tce end of the Perth CBD buzz with new venues and small bars as the Adelaide Tce end waited patiently for Public…
So with my newfound time, I’ve been spending more time learning about wine amongst other things. Usually I just drink and I know what I like or don’t like but without really knowing why. When there’s a special occasion, I usually go straight for a bottle of Veuve Clicquot. I tend to associate champagne with celebrations…
This random journey of a coconut named Joe all started at Eat Drink Blog 4, a national food blogger conference where I was given a coconut to take home from Perth City Farm after a few drinks If you were following my #CoconutJoeEDB13 tweets a couple of weekends ago, you would have seen this coconut make…
My first experience of pintxos (pronounced pin – chos), a Spanish snack held together with a toothpick, was at Naked for Satan in Melbourne which I absolutely loved. So I was excited to hear Perth’s very own pintxos bar, Bar de Halcyon, was opening in Wolf Lane. First day back at work after a week in sunny Gold Coast, I…
The Laneway Lounge launch was nothing short of spectacular. Red carpet and jazz notes floating through the Perth CBD drew us into a dark alley off Murray Street into this beautiful venue. I felt like I had left Perth just by walking through The Laneway Lounge doors, the venue was just stunning. Gorgeous booths to left, lounges…
burger boy and I was invited on a Perth Night Food Safari hosted by The Publican Group last month. Although I am no stranger to The George, The Aviary and Wolf Lane - it was a great way to find out more about The Publican Group. It was also lovely to catch up with fellow…
