The Good Food & Wine Show is back for 2011 at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre from 15 to 17 July. I have three double passes to give away to the show! Jac and I went last year and I had a great time tweeting and eating my way around the show. My write-up […]
We dine out regularly in Victoria Park/East Victoria Park and have walked past Senoji Japanese Restaurant many times. It never seems to have many customers but we’ve stopped and read the menu that they have on display at the front of the restaurant. At last, on a Tuesday evening before easter, we decided to give […]
Smile, it’s another family get-together! This time, a barbecue. Friends of my parents were over from Malaysia and we all got together for Sunday lunch. Zoe smiles as soon as she sees my camera I don’t even have to ask my niece Zoe to smile any more! She “smiles” as soon as I point my […]
On Easter Monday, we packed, checked out of our holiday apartments and then went breakfast at Samovar, on the corner of Queen and Kent streets in Busselton town centre. It was just after 10am and the cafe was busy – we grabbed the second-last free table. Jay ordered eggs Benedict (AU$17.00, available with leg ham […]
We made two restaurant reservations a few weeks before our easter holiday in the South West. One was for The Goose in Busselton; the other was for Must Margaret River. It took us around 35 minutes to drive from Busselton to Margaret River for lunch on Easter Sunday. Just like the night before at The […]
In my family, we often talk about the next meal while eating the current one. During dinner at the Goose, we hatched plans for breakfast the next morning. We had a lunch booking for 12.30pm at Must in Margaret River (that post is next) but Juji, Jay and I wanted to go out for breakfast […]
After an afternoon of fun at the Busselton Jetty Train and Underwater Observatory, we returned in the evening for dinner at The Goose. We’d made the reservation weeks before our holiday. By the time we arrived at the restaurant, the wind had picked up, the sea was choppy, the clouds were growing darker by the […]
If you visit Busselton, you can’t miss the jetty, which stretches 1.8km across Geographe Bay, the longest timber-piled jetty in the Southern Hemisphere. It’s been through a lot over the years, including being severely damaged in 1978 by Cyclone Alby, the worst cyclone in the history of South West WA, and a fire in 1999 […]
Eating an ice cream by the beach is one of life’s simple pleasures. And of course, it’s even better when you’re on holiday. Simmo’s strawberry ice cream – bigger than life-size! I was very keen to visit Simmo’s Ice Creamery in Busselton as I was the only one in the group who hadn’t eaten Simmo’s [&hel…
On our first night in Busselton we really didn’t feel like doing much. Jac and I have been so busy lately with work and on most nights it’s dark by the time I get home. We’d packed for our Easter trip the night before we left and woke up early to finish last-minute chores around […]
