Cafes, Bars, Restaurants that are PERMANENTLY CLOSED.
Brick Lane, 228 Carr Place, Leederville WA 6007, Phone 9228 1300.
Home style fare … Went to try Brick Lane’s lunch specials and discovered the restaurant empty. But we were soon joined by other people and the atmosphere improved. Our table looked out over the pavement to the bustle of Newcastle Street and Carr Place.
An’s Kitchen, 1 / 305 William Street, Northbridge WA 6003, Phone 9227 9667.
Wow, So Different … Can honestly say I’ve not tried food like this before. But, someone had mentioned that I had to go along to An’s Kitchen and try the noodles. Ans Kitchen specialise in food from the Shaanxi Province in China.
ilPasto Mount Hawthorn, 180 Scarborough Beach Road, Mount Hawthorn WA 6016.
And the beat goes on … Big fan of ilPasto’s Inglewood Trattoria and first time dining experience at ilPasto Mount Hawthorn. The beat definitely goes on in this sister trattoria. A new building but furnished with old memorabilia and photos, giving it a very nostalgic Italian feel.
Market Juicery, Shop 2, 139-141 Oxford Street, Leederville WA 6007, Phone 0458 877 000.
Bagels and Raw Desserts … Reading the reviews for Market Juicery you would assume that juices are the big thing. Well, they are but there is also the food, and there’s a lot to choose from.
La Farmacia, 255A Scarborough Beach Road, Doubleview WA 6018, Phone 0401 845 453.
Eclectic offerings … Discovered La Farmacia recently whilst driving to Scarborough Beach. In a little row of shops at the corner of St Brigids Terrace, one of the shops had a set of flags blowing in the wind which caught my eye. We decided to try the coffee.
Lucioli, Shop 117, Claremont Quarter Shopping Centre, (Gugeri Street Side), Claremont WA 6010, Phone 9383 2883.
Great food … On entering Lucioli you are confronted with an array of amazing looking sweet treats. This was a nice way to be introduced to their food with Rum Babas and Croissants. And, the fabulous Bar which takes centre stage in the main space.
Kumagoro Japanese Restaurant, 82 / 1 Howtree Place, Floreat WA 6014, Phone 9287 2020.
Lunch special … Spied Kumagoro Japanese Restaurant in the Floreat Forum Shopping Centre. It looked inviting, so we decided to try their lunch special, which at $10.00, including a drink, proved to be a definite bargain.
Agedashi Tofu Bento
Wagon, Location Varies.
Real food … Finally got a chance to try the Wagon at the Maylands Hawkers Market. Been trying to track down this food truck for a while now. It was difficult because they are usually in the Fremantle area, and, I am usually not. Great looking van with an enviable commercial kitchen. Seriously, it’s better fitted out than most Restaurant kitchens. Got to beat this food truck envy thing.
Vegan Food Van
Amaizing, 28 Eighth Avenue, Maylands WA 6051, Phone 0427 358 043.
Venezuelan Cachapas … Amaizing have been around a year or more now and offer Perth some truly exciting Venezuelan food.
Arepa – Chicken and Avocado
Subidoo, 483 Hay Street, Subiaco WA 6008, Phone 9381 6278.
Buttermilk Chicken … On walking into Subidoo I felt the ghost of the Oriel Cafe still in place. The long bar is still present and has been enhanced by loads of greenery and a new design.
