Fortysevenkirwanstreet

Situated in the heart of the Floreat suburb, along Kirwan Street, lies Fortysevenkirwanstreet. Matt and I decided to catch up for brunch and we decided that Fortysevenkirwanstreet would be perfect since it is not too far from where we live. When Matt and I arrived, the cafe was quite busy and crowded as it was during the peak hour brunch towards lunch time. This shows how popular the cafe is among the locals in the area. Luckily, we were able to find a table to ourselves inside as it was really hot on that day! Matt had the Potato and … Continue reading Fortysevenkirwanstreet

The Attic

And so, the Fremantle Adventures begin again. Yes, there is a lot to explore in Fremantle. Along Bannister St, lies a little cafe called “The Attic”. Past the counter where you place your order and up the stairs, you will find yourself at the attic, an eating area where everyone is enjoying their food, coffee or cake and having a great time catching up. From the deli counter to the brunch options, it was hard to decide what to order because everything looks and sounds good! I had the Cinnamon Mushrooms, Cummin Seed, White Cheese, Crispy Egg and Sourdough ($18) … Continue reading The Attic

Pearfect Pantry

Situated in the middle of the Wembley suburb along Herdsman Parade lies a little cafe behind a Laundromat called “Pearfect Pantry”. Yes, it is a hidden gem and it is quite easy to miss it. A handy hint – keep your eyes out for the Laundromat and you should be able to see signs pointing you to the right direction. When Matt and I arrived at Pearfect Pantry, we realised that we were half an hour late and had missed out on breakfast. But that’s ok, because we were still keen on lunch. I had the 5 Spice Crispy Pork … Continue reading Pearfect Pantry

Moore & Moore

And so, the adventures to find hidden gems in Fremantle begins again. Another one of the cafes that has been on my wishlist for a while is Moore & Moore. With its mismatched furnitures and vintage decorations, Moore & Moore is one quirky cafe situated in the Moore’s Building at the heart of Fremantle. I had the Smashed New Potato Rosti ($21) which consists of mustard seed, spinach, romano cheese potato rosti topped with a poached egg, avocado, green olive and caper salsa rocket and tomato relish. I fell in love with my dish immediately. The tastiness of the potato … Continue reading Moore & Moore

Two Rubens Espresso

Fremantle is one place where one can have their very own foodie adventure. Food and coffee lies in every corner of Fremantle, where some of them are definitely worth a visit. As we were walking along the streets in Fremantle, we stumbled upon Two Rubens Espresso. To start off, I had the Pantera Rosa juice ($7.50) which is a mix of watermelon, strawberry, apple mint and lemon. It was a very nice and refreshing drink to start off the day. Pantera Rosa Juice Dad had the Rubens ($15) which consists of either poached or scrambled eggs, short cut bacon, avocado, … Continue reading Two Rubens Espresso

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

When Vinh is not studying or doing his rotations at hospitals, you can find him at his cafe. Coming from a Vietnamese family and growing up eating a lot of the food that he serves, you can rest assure that the food is authentically Vietnamese as Vinh’s … Continue reading East Cafe & Vietnamese Bistro

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

Hoi Bo Chinese Restaurant

Chicken Rice has been one of the many comfort foods on my list for a very long time. Sometimes, I tend to become homesick and miss a few of my favourite foods in Malaysia. One of them is chicken rice.  As I was doing research on “Best Chicken Rice in Perth” on google , I stumbled upon Hoi Bo Chinese Restaurant. From the reviews on Urbanspoon, there were many great reviews and most of them were associated with the chicken rice. Could this be one of Perth’s best chicken rice on the north side of the river? I think so … Continue reading Hoi Bo Chinese Restaurant
