PERTH restaurant Garum is a collaboration between the ritzy hotel Westin Perth and celebrated Aussie chef Guy Grossi. The My Kitchen Rules judge is the brains behind Garum’s Roman-inspired menu, but the real star is head chef Stefano Pingue. If you sit back and watch Pingue work the pass, you’ll see a serious chef dedicated…

PETER MORGAN is onto something special with his new Leederville restaurant Rusty Pig. Inside it’s quite tight and narrow, but there is ample dining space including a long bar where punters can enjoy a meal and a drink while watching Morgan, the head chef and owner, in action. The MasterChef alumni has nailed the KISS…

A BUS load of Japanese tourists had descended on Ischia Restaurant and I surreptitiously checked out what they’d ordered. Pizza of course, its universal, but they were also tucking into bowls of mussels. Since my Japanese is limited to sayonara and saki, communication was difficult, but they seemed happy with sunny Perth and in particular the…

TARTS Cafe isn’t named after the ladies of the night who used to prowl Lake Street, but it’s a nod to the gorgeous cakes it makes and sells. Premium real estate and upmarket residents have transformed the working class area into a Northbridge hotspot with trendy cafes and eateries. On a mildly sunny working day,…

THE original May Street Larder in East Fremantle was so noisy I left without ordering, but thankfully the Mt Hawthorn incarnation is far more relaxing. The eatery prides itself on using fresh, locally sourced ingredients and serves healthy and indulgent dishes. I plumped for the ricotta gnocchi ($24) – which like Goldilocks’ porridge was just…

PERTH loves a new restaurant. Hunter & Barrel has been open for less than two months and the Raine Square newbie is already attracting big crowds. When we arrived at 5pm on a Friday we were told they were fully booked, but thanks to some table shuffling they squeezed us in upstairs. Hunter & Barrel…

SAUMA is a hip Indian eatery that mixes old and new in an exciting seasonal menu. The chef uses ingredients from around the world to create new tastes and interesting combinations. It’s the sort of Indian nosh enjoyed by the sub-continent’s growing middle class, rather than their parents. On the street food menu, there’s a…

THE Modern Eatery is one of the few restaurants in Perth serving sushi seared with a blowtorch to give it a caramelised smoky bite (aburi sushi). If you haven’t tried the Japanese eatery yet, you are forgiven, as it’s tucked away on Chelmsford Road in Mt Lawley. But it’s worth seeking out as the presentation…

ALL too often a restaurant starts with good intentions and great food, but somehow the love is lost and the quality nosedives. The West End Deli is the exception to the rule and is still serving up amazing food after 10 years in business. The Carr Street eatery was formerly a Greek deli and in…

THE D’Angers will definitely revisit Theo and Co in Leederville. Not just because the pizzas were the best we’ve ever eaten, but because we didn’t get to try the dessert one. We sat in awe as a chocolate pizza base – crowned with vanilla ice cream and lavishly drizzled with chocolate sauce and nuts ($20)…
