Bel Giardino … And what a beautiful garden setting they have. Walked through the Garden gate into Cecchi’s Restaurant from busy Beaufort Street and found a calm, peaceful oasis.

Save Me From Myself … Looking for Lunch in the CBD. Wandering around ENEX100 and nothing appealed. Noticed a really long line of people and, out of curiosity, joined the queue. Welcome to lunch time’s hidden haunt. Pizza by the Slice and some authentic home cooked Pasta at Delisio Pizza Romana.

Monte Fiore Cafe – CLOSED MARCH 2017
StandardMonte Fiore Cafe, 628 Beaufort Street, Mount Lawley WA 6050, Phone 9227 9898.
A mixed bag … Monte Fiore Café is housed in a great old building on Beaufort Street. It has wooden floors, a large wall of folding doors to bring the outside in and a large Bar. We’ve eaten there a couple of times now. The first when it wasn’t busy at all and it was quite a good experience with food, atmosphere and service being spot on. However, this last experience was a little too much to bear.
Francoforte Spaghetti Bar – Coffee Bar
StandardFrancoforte Spaghetti Bar, 4 / 189 William Street, Northbridge WA 6003, Phone 9227 9289.
Kale pesto … Finding Francoforte Spaghetti Bar is probably the hardest part about dining at this tiny little café. Hidden away in an Arcade off William Street in Northbridge, you’d be forgiven for getting lost. To be honest, I didn’t even know that the Arcade was there and must have walked past is for years.
