IN Perth, you’re never far away from a Malaysian restaurant. There are lots of dodgy ones and the good ones can be a little out of the way, but they’re usually worth seeking out. Ria Malay Kitchen in Leederville is definitely a good one; in fact it’s one of the best I’ve been to. The…

NOTHING is more breakfast to me than a plate stacked high with pancakes. Well, almost nothing; Sayers Cafe’s buckwheat and buttermilk pancakes with blueberries, honeycomb, lemon mascarpone and hazelnut maple syrup are like pancakes on steroids. This little hidden cafe has an eclectic feel, with a gorgeous outside eating area that was bustling with early…

CAMBODIA has never been high on my holiday wish list, but after a lovely dinner at Tamarind in Mt Hawthorn I’ve been checking the price of airfares to Phnom Penh. The Cambodian cuisine at Tamarind is reminiscent of food from Vietnam and Thailand – think creamy curries and sour soups – but every dish has…

KANGAROO bolognese and pigs cheek carbonara are just some of the innovative dishes on offer at Francoforte Spaghetti Bar in Northbridge. Mates who have eaten there say the roo dish ($24/$18) is “rich, delicious and not gamey”. Tucked away in one of Northbridge’s atmospheric lanes, the eatery is so popular it can be hard to…

THERE’S almost as much drama at Aisuru Sushi than at the State Theatre around the corner. Watching the adroit chefs prepare dishes in the open kitchen is sheer box office, and we became totally engrossed as flames leapt out the frying pan and beautiful sushi was rolled by the dozen. Aisuru means to love in…

LEADMAN smashes it with their evening degustation menus, but as I was saying goodbye to the concrete plants in East Perth mid-day, I thought I’d check out their lunch menu. If ever there was a perfect example of why those noisy, dusty plants have had their day and should go as quickly as possible, it’s…

IF it wasn’t for the 100-watt smile and warm greeting from the owner at Infinity Cafe, I would have probably left after a quick look around. On a cold wet day the East Perth cafe was hardly salubrious and the alfresco looked forlorn and the interior spartan. They don’t make everything in-house and the delightfully…

TASMANIA prides itself on its scallops and I tried lots there on holiday last year. But I reckon Six Senses Gourmet Thai could show the Taswegians a thing or two – their soft and meaty scallops are delicious; deftly balancing sweetness and saltiness. With a dash of chilli and a pleasing crunch from the roe…

MY chief of staff has strong opinions on most topics, including unassuming vegetables like cabbage. “Coleslaw is the most under-rated soul food of the world,” the Grunter opined in his usual take-no-prisoners tone. “And this one,” he said, with a wave of his hand, “went beautifully with the bagel.” A curious mix of new-age hippie…
