Last month, burger boy and I went to The Byrneleigh Hotel for dinner before heading to see Black Swan State Theatre’s preview of Day One, A Hotel Evening. This is the most hotels we’ve been to in one night! I was in Nedlands for an end of day meeting and super keen to have Italian…
Venn is one of my favourite venues to go for a Friday lunch and sneaky drink. Tucked away on Queens Street, Venn’s fit-out is funky and filled with greenery which is a nice escape from my corporate Perth CBD office. I always feel instantly relaxed when I go to Venn. There are three spaces to enjoy…
After a drink in our resort’s bar we decided to venture into Margaret River for dinner at Morries Anytime - little did we know that it was a 50 minute drive each way. I had called earlier and was told that they were fully booked but they would try their very best to accommodate us…
I had been looking forward to trying the food at Clarences as I had heard so many good things and had only ever been there for drinks. So I was pretty excited when our suppliers (thanks WASP!) said they would take us there for lunch and drinks… Before detailing what amazing food we had, I think…
My friend Ami shouted me lunch at the XO Lounge the other week (thanks chic, was great catching up!). She had a $29 voucher from one of the deals websites which entitled us each to: A glass of beer or wine; The choice of a steak sandwich or a orange grazed chicken salad; and Coffee or tea. I went to the XO…

I’ve just spent a wonderful week in Melbourne, visiting burger boy’s youngest bro mugsie (who lives upstairs in a pub), making the most of Zara’s grand opening & the stock-take sale and visiting as many Melbourne bars as we could fit in. And Melbourne as always didn’t disappoint. First Melbourne bar we visited was The Standard Hotel in Fitzroy.…
I’ve been to Ria one other time with burger boy before but hadn’t rated it as I thought it was a bit pricey for Malaysian food and we really only had a couple of dishes to judge the food by. But our most recent experience at Ria was a good one. With 6 of us we were…
It’s been a wonderful long weekend filled with lots of food and catch-ups with our family & friends. I even met my pen pal of 16 years for the very first time on Saturday! My pen pal and her husband were staying with their friend Andy the Chef in Como so we thought the Windsor…
I think I really surprised the girls (and myself) today, I arrived at Monte Fiore in Mount Lawley at 12:59pm for a 1pm booking and waited 15 minutes for the girls to rock up. The girls were having bets that I wouldn’t be there when they arrived! burger boy and I are renowned for being late Monte Fiore…
burger boy and I have just come home from dinner @ The Inglewood Hotel. I’ve been there for dinner only one other time and from memory I had the Guinness Pie which I don’t remember much about, so it mustn’t have been spectacular. On the other hand, burger boy and all his friends are always…

There’s just something about eating Hot Dogs in the states, maybe it’s from watching all the American TV shows growing up which makes it so appealing and such a novelty. So on our honeymoon last year, hot dogs were on our top eat list and we sure ate a lot of hot dogs in the…
Northbridge has sure ‘funked’ up in the last 6 months or so - for a split second on Wednesday night I thought I was walking into a bar in Melbourne! Ezra Pound is tucked away within a laneway in Northbridge featuring Melbourne like street art. The crowd was very hip / arty, lighting was dim…
Last Friday, we went to The Boheme, a new bar on Murray Street, for one of my favourite work colleague’s farewell drinks. The drinks were decently priced, I was paying about $8 for a glass of wine. The Boheme looked nicely decked out and had a good crowd & ambience about it. Kind of looked like a…
