11 Dec - Port Kennedy Tavern, Port Kennedy



Last Friday was a work lunch at the Port Kennedy Tavern. I went for the lamb shank which was braised in honey and balsamic which was a bit weird. But the meat was falling apart.

28 Nov - Sienas, Leederville




CB and I shared a calamari entree and wedges as a starter and I had a chicken caesar salad for mains.

Everything was ordinary, the wedges weren't spiced or seasoned at all. The chicken caesar was OK but nothing to rave about.

21 Nov - Villa da Vinci, Ballajura




Can't say the serves weren't generous here! I was full after the wedges as a starter! The meat of the day special was enjoyed though with smooth mash, cabbage, bacon and some jus.

30 Oct - Ae Sushi, Hillarys








A light meal (by my standards) out at Ae Sushi in Hillarys.

Smiths KFC Zinger Chips


When I first heard about these, I was salivating at the thought. KFC Hot and Spicy is a guilty pleasure, nothing comes close when you want some deep fried finger licking good chicken. I was hoping these would be like the real thing, just in chip form.

But these taste nothing like KFC. If they were in a bowl without the packaging, I wouldn't have guessed it. They have some spice, but that's about all is going for it with the zinger name. Severely disappointed.

24 Oct - The Alexander, Ballajura


My birthday this year was at the classy Alexander bar and bistro in Ballajura.

CB and I shared the salt and pepper squid which wasn't bad. It wasn't served with salad but a crispy flat bread.

I went for the Texan burger which is double the signature Alexander burger. I managed to finish it but was struggling toward the end. At least this burger was quite good, a lot tastier than the Yankee burger challenge.

24 Oct - Cafe Vivere, Morley


Breakfast on Saturday was out at Coventrys.

I had eggs benedict which was on Turkish bread, bacon, rocket, poached eggs and hollandaise.

With a coffee, it went down well.
