Lalla Rookh Bar & Eating House, Perth CBD

Do you often suffer dish envy or order regret? But bravo to the bread and butter pudding!
A tasty dinner Jac cooked – panfried chicken thigh fillet pieces, seasoned with Alseason, served with pasta salad (penne, green beans, corn, semi-dried tomatoes, spring onion tossed with a little light olive oil and a cracking of fresh salt and black pepper) and two pieces of bread (well, one slice of bread, crusts off, cut […]
