Ingredient Tree

Just after a CxWorx and BodyAttack class back to back, Matt and I decided to head to Ingredient Tree for brunch. Quite similar to Pimlott & Strand, Ingredient Tree is not only a cafe. Ingredient Tree is also a one stop shop for sourcing your ingredients. Again, feel free to have a browse after having breakfast or lunch at the cafe. Oh, and they do sell Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream too! (I think Ingredient Tree was one of the first stores in Perth to stock Ben and Jerry’s actually) I had the French Toast ($17) which was served with … Continue reading Ingredient Tree

Pimlott & Strand

Generous servings. Good food. Who would not want more than that? Located in North Perth Plaza along Fitzgerald street lies Pimlott & Strand (You won’t be able to miss it! It’s just opposite Chemist Warehouse) Pimlott & Strand is not only a cafe offering good food. It also offers an array of gourmet artisanal-style produce for you to purchase. Feel free to take a browse while waiting for your food or coffee or perhaps if you need to stock up on an ingredient or produce for your pantry! I had the Breakfast Insalata ($16.50) which consists of baked ciabatta croutons, … Continue reading Pimlott & Strand

Bread In Common

I hardly travel to Fremantle unless it is for seafood or fish and chips. I realised that Fremantle is not only the home to seafood or fish and chips but it is also the home to many rustic, hip and chic cafes. Bread In Common is one of them. With the hanging lightbulbs, its rustic outlook and the long communal tables, it is definitely worth one’s visit. No reservations are required and walk-ins are perfectly fine. Bread in Common on the outside Bread in Common on the inside When you are at Bread In Common, you can’t leave without ordering the … Continue reading Bread In Common

Santi’s

As I usually have my practicum at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital on Tuesdays, I decided to catch up with two of my uni friends, Clara and Tracy for lunch as I have not seen them in a while. So we decided to catch up at Santi’s which is not very far from QEII Medical Centre and the hospital. Being in the area brings back many fond memories of my undergraduate degree where I used to walk along Hampden road with my course mates for lunch before a lab or to hang out after a class. There are many eateries along … Continue reading Santi’s

Piccolo’s Corner

After finishing a great BodyCombat workout, I decide to head to Piccolo’s Corner for brunch and coffee with mum and dad. As I am always doing “research” on Urbanspoon, I stumbled upon Piccolo’s Corner which had good reviews from the Urbanspoon community. Piccolo’s Corner is tucked in the suburb of West Leederville and is only a few minutes from Subiaco and Wembley. The cafe was not busy when we arrived probably because the Footy Finals were on and most people were at home watching the game. When we bumped into one of mum’s gym friend there, she told us that … Continue reading Piccolo’s Corner

Weir’s Kitchen

Tucked away in a corner of the Broadway shops, lies Weir’s Kitchen, located next to Weir’s Butchers. Weir’s Kitchen is cosy, homely and a great cafe to get away from the peak hour lunch crowd in Broadway. As I was finished with my classes just before lunchtime, Mum and I decided head to Weir’s Kitchen to have lunch since we were around the area. I ordered the Lamb Shanks with Mashed Potato ($13.95) and mum ordered the Satay Beef pie ($11.95). The Lamb Shanks were very delicious and the meat came off the bone easily as it must have been … Continue reading Weir’s Kitchen

Ootong & Lincoln

Woke up to a late Saturday morning and decided to take a drive down to Fremantle for brunch at Ootong & Lincoln with the family. I have heard many great reviews of Ootong & Lincoln from word of mouth to Urbanspoon reviews. When we arrived, the cafe was quite full but we managed to find ourselves a table. Ootong & Lincoln is a hip and quirky cafe with its mismatched vintage furniture and interior. For the drinks, I ordered the Green Smoothie ($9.50) consisting of apple, lemon, green leaves, kiwi fruit, banana and chia seeds. It was a very yummy … Continue reading Ootong & Lincoln

Mrs. S

Another cafe famous for its breakfast, brunch and lunch in Perth is Mrs. S which is located in the heart of Maylands. I have always wanted to give Mrs. S a try from hearing good reviews from friends and Urbanspoon. So, what’s my verdict of Mrs. S? It is very good and definitely worth a visit because the food, service and atmosphere is top notch. The cafe was full when we arrived but we were told that it was only a 5-10 minute wait for a table which was bearable. While waiting for our table, we also had a look at … Continue reading Mrs. S

Toast

Toast became a backup plan as we were meant to visit The Good Food and Wine Show at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre. Unfortunately, the parking at the Convention Centre was full and it became too much of a hassle to search for parking nearby. We changed our plans and decided to go for brunch at Toast instead. This is my first time at Toast. I have heard many great reviews of Toast from friends and Urbanspoon. My review of Toast? It is definitely worth a try and I highly recommend it. Not only for their food and service but … Continue reading Toast
