MY night out at Lulu La Delizia in Subiaco began at 9pm, so we were off to a very European start. With my sophisticated French friend Lily in tow, in a pair of silk trousers no less, I could almost smell the hills of Tuscany where I once spent a very wet spring working on…

I WAS a bit miffed when the Flying Scotsman in Mt Lawley closed down in 2020, as it was a classic old-school boozer that did a mean steak night. It was always busy and fared well, but apparently there was a stoush over the lease and it all ended acrimoniously. Anyway, as Ronan Keating said…

LIKE many other dads, I over did it with the unhealthy food and craft beer on Father’s Day. I also had to wear a cap made by my young son, featuring his drawing of me that looked like Bela Lugosi with a hangover. On Monday I was in dire need of some vitamins and greens,…

THERE are some interesting cafes at the quieter end of Oxford Street in Leederville. Three Sisters Vietnamese and Pixel Cafe spring to mind, and this week I stumbled upon Dear Green Cafe, which serves Asian-style brunch dishes. The cafe is diagonally opposite the old Midway taxi rank, which is now caked in graffiti and overgrown…

I decided to try Lupo Lab for lunch, but don’t worry it’s not a themed diner where you drink out of test tubes and eat from petri dishes. It’s actually a stylish Italian restaurant on Scarborough Beach Road. Situated opposite the Mezz shopping centre, the interestingly named Lupo Lab is part of a nice row of…

CLAISEBROOK COVE was in full bloom when I went there for lunch on Tuesday. Spring had arrived prematurely and the beau monde flocked to the waterside cafes like flamingos on heat. There was a European air to the Cove and it reminded me of holidays in the Mediterranean, where tourists leisurely promenade at night. Unfortunately,…

I RECKON the Premier should focus his house hunting on Claisebrook Cove in East Perth. The leafy enclave is perfect for a swish apartment where he could live with other MPs in a political version of Seinfeld – Seinfeld (Mark McGowan), Kramer (John Carey), Elaine (Simone McGurk) and George Costanza (David Templeman). They could all hang out…

IT was the most expensive and infamous sausage I’ve ever tried – the andouillette. The French banger is made from pork and chitterlings (pig intestines) and has a very distinctive aroma when cooked, with many comparing the smell to, well, the stuff that passes through pig’s intestines. Just Google andouillette and you will find umpteen…

In support of Norway’s beach handball team, I ditched the bikini bottoms and wore baggy shorts to lunch at Fez Cafe. It was a show of solidarity that not only pleased my wife, but the many diners and pedestrians in Mt Lawley. As the name suggests, Fez Cafe serves breakfast and brunch dishes with a…

EIGHTEEN days of biblical rain and counting. As I splashed through the puddles on Oxford Street, I felt like a slightly-overweight Noah, looking for bits of wood to make my ark, “Blue Origin II”. As the rain became torrential, I sought refuge in Three Sisters Vietnamese Tuckshop, a cute little number at the quieter end…
