by Jane GrljusichVoice Promotions Tommaso means “twin”, and this stylish Italian restaurateur is equalling his renowned North Perth eatery in the city’s liveliest suburb On a foothill of the Apennine Mountains in the Italian province of Perugia, Umbria, lies Spoleto, just two hours from “Roma Capitale” where pizza’s better half – pinsa – has been…

I WAS en route to one of the best-named restaurants in Perth – the Fat Dragon. A stalwart of Mt Lawley, the Chinese has seen off countless food fads and trends over the years, as well as the recent economic decline in the suburb. So what’s its secret? Well the owners know their market –…

WHEN my family and I arrived at The Royal on Sunday evening, the place was awash with Dockers fans. They were in good mood after beating Hawthorn 96-81 at the Optus Stadium, and the East Perth eatery had a lively feel-good buzz. But it wasn’t just a macho love-in with men enjoying a simian embrace,…

WITH the Easter holidays upon us, the Voice headed to the Perth Hills for a special food review at the Naked Apple Cider House. Thankfully it wasn’t a nudist venue and I didn’t mentally scar diners with my pasty Anglo-Saxon frame. There’s three big cideries up in the Hills; the Naked Apple is the most…

CHANNEL NINE was rocked by a cyberattack this week with Weekend Today forced off-air. Some might call it digital terrorism, others an exercise in good taste.

WITH WA turning a deep shade of red on Saturday night, I almost expected to see Mark McGowan levitating above Perth like some political deity. No such joy, but for a minute I thought I glimpsed John Carey in a microlight, carpet bombing the city with red Lego bricks. Sanity prevailed when my family and…

THE level of abstraction from paddock to plate is so great that sometimes we lose sight of where all our food comes from. So it’s great to have events like Farmer on your Plate in Perth’s CBD to remind city slickers what agriculture and farming is all about. This year’s event is particularly relevant, given…

IT was the Tuesday night after the long weekend, with fork lightning and thunder ripping open the sky. It was surely a write-off for most restaurants in Perth, but not for Acqua e Sale on Fitzgerald Street, which was almost full to the brim with loyal punters. The little Italian was perfect for a stormy…

I’M not a fan of restaurants with gimmicks. There used to be a Buck Rogers Bar in Glasgow, but it was shutdown after a patron had too much to drink and head-butted Twiki and destroyed a paper-mache spaceship. So I was a bit apprehensive about visiting Solo Pasta in Mt Lawley, where you order pasta…
