Afternoon tea with friends

On the same day as the family breakfast at Sizzler, I went to afternoon tea at my friend D’s home. D was one of my best friends from my now ex-workplace. She wanted to celebrate my new job (although she was sad we would no longer get to work together) and my PhD. Our great […]

Sizzler buffet breakfast

Those of you partial to breakfast posts should like this one! On the last Sunday in March, we had the buffet breakfast at Sizzler with Jac’s family, to celebrate my and Jac’s nephew Max’s birthdays. I was pleased to discover that you get Sizzler’s cheese toast at breakfast too! I know it’s nothing special, but [&hellip…

Lunch at the Carillon Food Hall

On the Saturday Jac and I went into the city to find me a wedding outfit (we’d found Jac’s dress in a boutique in Mount Lawley earlier that week), we had lunch in the Carillon Food Hall. While Jac looked for a sandwich or salad, I had two cravings to satisfy. First, a craving for […]

Barbecue dinner with friends

Towards the end of March, we went to our friends S and D’s home for a barbecue. I love grilled or barbecued haloumi cheese, so I was chuffed to see our starter dish cooking on the barbie. Soon, we could hear the sizzle of haloumi turning golden-brown on the hotplate. It smelled great! I ate […]

Breakfast at Shots with C

Prawn parcels and saucy noodles

This is another place I’ll miss from East Perth. I know the noodles at Noodlebox (118 Royal St, East Perth) are far from authentic, but I love noodle stir-fries, and a noodle stir-fry would have to be pretty dismal for me to not enjoy it. This was one of my very last Noodlebox lunches. I’ve […]

Dinner at Monte Fiore Cafe

After shopping for wedding outfits in Mount Lawley recently, Jac and I decided to have dinner before heading home. We went to Monte Fiore Cafe on Beaufort Street which is, incidentally, where we first met. I worked there while completing my undergraduate degree, and straight after graduation, I worked there full-time for a while. Jac […]

Lunches from Aroma

On a day when I ate something I’ve eaten for lunch multiple times, I decided not to photograph my food. I asked my workmates if they’d let me photograph their lunches instead. Here’s C’s lunch, a salad combination from Aroma. Not sure what the actual salads are, though. This is J’s pasta combination – lasagna [&h…
