After a number of unsuccessful attempts to acquire an iPad 2 on launch day last Friday – I was clearly delusional when I thought there was any chance after getting out of work after 5pm – I decided to meet up with Juji and Jay at the final Twilight Hawker Market, in Forrest Place in […]
Last Wednesday, I joined a table of Perth food bloggers and food lovers, our partners and friends for a night of memorable dining at Amusé Project, a special degustation dinner prepared by the young chefs and service team at Restaurant Amusé in East Perth.
