During previous excursions to the lunch bar named 88 Royal (88a Royal St, East Perth) I’ve noticed four magic words written on the breakfast menu chalkboard: bacon and egg sandwich. These four words burned themselves into my mind, and kept popping up in my thoughts during the week: bacon and egg sandwich! Bacon and egg […]

Dinner at The Royal Bar and Brasserie

I had dinner with a colleague and friend, V, last Thursday evening. We went to The Royal (Corner Plain and Royal Streets, East Perth). I’m actually quite surprised we found time to eat that night, as we just talked and talked and talked and talked! Although we’ve worked under the same roof within sight of […]

Chinese home delivery

It’s been a while since we had a big feed of Chinese home delivery for dinner. As always, special fried rice… Crab meat with sweet corn soup – the bigger pieces of “crab” were seafood extender, which was a shame. Seafood extender is really no substitute for real crab! The corn soup flavour was delicious, […]

Work food – transition week

Happiness drips with maple syrup

I had to work on Saturday this weekend just gone, which was a bummer. But since I had to be out and about anyway, I decided to get to Subiaco a little earlier and grab brunch at Tastings Coffee House – pancakes with banana and maple syrup. For AU$9.90 I wasn’t sure what to expect. […]

Any excuse to indulge!

We had a team meeting on Friday afternoon last week, and as a treat for the troops and to say welcome to new person J, my boss purchased a selection of pastries and tartlettes from Chez Jean Claude Patisserie. I’ve featured these before, but I never get tired of gazing at these gorgeous little pastries […]

Minus cheese

I just wanted to share something I’ve been enjoying for breakfast every now and then – a $2.00 cheesey omelette wrap from Hungry Jack’s – minus cheese. I’ve been trying to eat a little healthier, and part of this means no plastic fast food cheese! I’m sure though, that the orangey cheese gives the omelette [&hell…
