Oh, Myattsfield, how do we love thee? Let us count the ways. 1. You’re pretty as a picture, nestled in the rolling hills of the Bickley, which (soz, Swan Valley) has become our new foodie destination of choice. 2. Your wine sorbets are satisfying our red wine cravings in hot weather, and have us totally […]
Photography by Ross Wallace Don’t tell my husband this, but I fall in love really easily. And all the time. Not with charming Italian men (one was enough, thank you very much), but with bars. Each new watering hole that pops up around town – and lately there have been plenty – becomes my new […]
Despite being in its toddler years, the Margaret River Gourmet Escape is earning a rep as one of the best foodie events in the nation. We were lucky enough to score tickets to a breakfast hosted by Heston Blumenthal – the eternally bespectacled celebrity chef who has the heart of a chemist, and is partial […]
Trust us, the Naked Fig has way more going for them than their cheeky branding and beachside location. We dined there the other night and had one of the tastiest feeds we’ve had in a while – lamb ‘lollies’ coated in hoi sin and sesame? Roasted salmon with potato gratin? Gnocchi topped with candied walnuts? […]
“We’re living the high life,” smirked my date. He wasn’t kidding, and not just because of the gourmet four-course menu, the artfully arranged plates, or our waiter who tended on us with the gentle devotion of a baby Labrador. We were literally up high – a whopping thirty-three stories above ground level, with dizzying 360-degree […]
In the mood for a Caribbean holiday, but not a long-haul flight? Crown’s Colours of Cuba has got you covered. My partner and I were certainly sold on Wednesday night. The Caribbean love affair kicked off with a sampling of the colours and flavours of Cuba at The Atrium. Lime, garlic and cumin dominated the flavour fiesta. Think suckling […]
If you can remember Wednesday nights out at the ‘Seedy Leedy’, chances are you don’t want to return in a hurry. Well, good news – it’s safe to come out. The Leederville Hotel has emerged from its sticky, dance-caged adolescence and reopened as an uber-hip pop-up bar. Bill’s Bar and Bites will occupy the Leedy’s […]
It seems like you can’t walk five steps on St Georges Terrace without hitting a mile-long line snaking out of the newest hip, European-style restaurant. We’re all for Perth’s fine dining boon, but what about when you just feel like some good old market fare? Born from the Forrest Chase Twilight Hawker Markets that ran […]
This year’s Eat, Drink, Perth begins on the first day of autumn. That can’t be a coincidence. What better way is there to celebrate the end of bikini season and the start of winter weight gain, than an entire month’s worth of culinary events, from hawkers’ markets and coffee tastings to pop-up bars and cooking […]
Did someone say Applecross needed a wine bar? The owners of Bad Apples ask this rhetorical question on their Facebook page. With crowds of customers streaming through its doors each night, it would seem the answer is an emphatic yes. Although Bad Apples has only been open for a month, you wouldn’t know it from the slick […]

Great about Perth
