Nunam – Thai Cuisine, 223 Bulwer Street, Perth WA 6000, Phone 9228 8881.
Jazz, Thai Fusion and Retro Styling … What a welcome change for Brunch this Thai Restaurant is. The menu is a mixture of standard Modern Australian Food and Asian Fusion Breakfast Dishes. It made choosing extremely difficult.
Son In Law Eggs
Panini 854, Italian Kitchen, 854 Beaufort Street, Inglewood WA 6052, Phone 0419 047 412.
Simple Italian Fare … New lunch spot on Beaufort. Panini 854 make their Panini in house. They have baskets full of this chewy bread on display behind the counter. And, the menu on the wall lists a fair few varieties of fillings they will put together.
Rise and Grind Espresso Bar, 255A Scarborough Beach Road, Doubleview WA 6018, Phone 0422 353 133.
I Know It’s Over … La Farmacia closed a while ago now. In it’s place is Rise and Grind Espresso Bar with quite a nice face lift and some interesting food and coffee.
Crunchy Caramel Slice
Magna Pizza, The Mezz, Shop 22, 148 Scarborough Beach Road, Mount Hawthorn WA 6016, Phone 0410 755 676.
I Should Have Known Better … Than to visit a new Café in the first few weeks after opening. But did that stop me? It did not. Magna Pizza has just opened a new Store in Mount Hawthorn. It’s the sister to the Fremantle Store. And, given all the positive reviews, I couldn’t wait to sample their wares.
At the Mezz, Mount Hawthorn
Hangout On 20 Preston, 20 Preston Street, Como WA 6152, Phone 9474 1914.
Is Preston St the New Orange? … Pretty sure the last time I was in Como there wasn’t really a Strip. But on my way from the car to Hangout on 20 Preston I counted a good 7 or 8 Cafes. Also, there are a couple of High Rise Apartment Buildings going up nearby, so I imagine that will attract even more Cafes.
Thai Spice on Oxford, 135 Oxford Street, Leederville WA 6007, Phone 444 0321.
Adieu Giardini Cafe … And, hello Thai Spice on Oxford. Used to frequent Giardini Café quite a bit. In it’s heyday it was a vibrant place. Saying that, was very excited to see Thai Spice on Oxford arrive on the strip. Was even more excited when I found the Restaurant open for lunch on Saturday.

Pixel Coffee Brewers – The Beast
Curry Thieves, 47A / 366 Grand Promenade, Dianella Plaza WA 6059, Phone 9275 4622.
Thieves Like Us … It was a Video Store. Then it was going to be an Italian Restaurant for a long time but that never happened. Then overnight, it was turned into a tribute to the Dianella Community. And, that’s only in the last five or so years. The space is now home to Curry Thieves, Dianella’s first Indian Restaurant and Take Away. And it snuck up on us.
Mrs S Highgate, 487 Beaufort Street, Highgate WA 6003, Phone 9228 9999.
Hit the Road Jack … Fronted up to Side Door BBQ in Highgate. But it was not my lucky day as their BBQ Chicken was still a long way from completion. Not a problem really but a little sad that there was to be no BBQ for me.
Secondeli Cafe, 751 Beaufort Street, Mount Lawley WA 6050, Phone 6260 9392.
Filling the Gap … The Beaufort Street Café Strip is a little lengthy. Spanning, as it does, from the CBD through to Bedford. And, that means there are gaps where no Cafes, Franchises or even Lunch Bars can be found. Secondeli Cafe has nestled into the Strip where there is a definite gap.
