The Flour Factory, 16 Queen Street, Perth WA 6000, Phone 9485 1711.
Bakery and Butchery … Had heard good things about the Flour Factory so we decided to visit. Must say the building is really impressive and it is surrounded by impressive buildings. Queen Street architecture is actually really something. I haven’t walked down the street for a while and felt a renewed sense of old Perth.
Gordon St Garage, 16 Gordon Street, West Perth WA 6005, Phone 9322 8050.
Venue Extravaganza … I would recommend going to the Gordon St Garage just to check out the Building. It is up there amongst the top I’ve seen in Perth. Love, love, love the distressed, grunge, industrial style. With a touch of nostalgic 90’s graphic design.
Boulevard Hotel, Corner of The Boulevard and Howtree Place, Floreat WA 6014, Phone 9284 1199.
Geoff Hayward’s Twins … Big fan of the Brisbane Hotel in Highgate. But I wasn’t aware that the Boulevard Hotel in Floreat was it’s sister Hotel. It seems Geoff Hayward joined forces with Taylor Robinson architects to produce this new baby sister. Read our review of the Brisbane Hotel.
Tropico North Beach, Shop 1 / 105 Flora Terrace, North Beach WA 6020, Phone 9246 2878.
Happiness … What struck me straight away was how crowded Tropico North Beach was. For a Tuesday lunch time it was bustling and there was a small queue for a table.

Italian Pizza and Pastries … First came across Dolce and Salato at Charlie’s Fresh Food Market. I was on my way to get my usual supplies of Parmesan and Provolone Cheese when I noticed there was a new shop.
The Garden, Leederville Hotel, 742 Newcastle Street, Leederville WA 6007, Phone 9202 8282.
Great Ambience … Was dragged along with Xena on a visit to The Garden in Leederville. This lovely restaurant is part of the Leederville Hotel. And, is housed in a seriously revamped old building.
Great Old Building
Sandrino Cafe Pizzeria, 16 South Terrace, Fremantle WA 6160, Phone 9335 4487.
Wood Fired Pizza … On a lazy Sunday afternoon in Fremantle walking along the cafe strip we discovered Sandrino Cafe Pizzeria. Actually, it was the pizza that two young ladies were sharing in the outdoor area that caught our eye. That pizza lured us into the cafe.
Little Creatures Brewing, 40 Mews Road, Fremantle WA 6160, Phone 6215 1000.
Lazy Day, Sunday afternoon … Waterside at Little Creatures Brewery in Fremantle. We ventured into the Great Hall to try some food. The sun was shining and we could smell the sea. Hadn’t been to this place for years and was still impressed with the venue.
Great Hall

Wood Fired Pizza … Revisited Sunny Jim’s at the Maylands Hawkers Market recently.
Sunny Jims Mobile Wood Fired Pizza offer authentic wood fired pizza. You can’t possibly miss the giant wood fired pizza oven they tow everywhere with them. As Maylands Market is family oriented and children like pizza, it’s a Win Win situation.
