Inadvertently, in the last 12 months I have pretty much visited the entire alphabet of Perth!!
About a month ago, when thinking about ideas for the blogs 1st birthday, I wondered if I could cover the alphabet with where we’ve dined at over the year. I found that I only needed to visit somewhere with the letters Q and Y. I found a few letters difficult to pick a favourite, so there are quite a few honourable mentions! We really are spoiled for dining choices at the moment in Perth.
This isn’t a definitive Perth list, just a pick of the best places I have visited as a food blogger;
We had a memorable wedding anniversary dinner at Amuse. The degustation is one of the very best in the west. It is the perfect restaurant for a special occasion.
So many restaurants worth an A+ !! I’d say Apple Daily Bar & Eating House was a very close second – it’s one of Chef’s faves.
And honourable mentions to Ace Pizza and Aravina Estate Winery
We loved each and every dish that we had sent to us on the “trust the Chef” menu. The chic restaurant owned by Andrew Embley and Dean Cox is a favourite of ours.
Honourable Mention to Bib & Tucker
The Cabin Small Bar – Mount Hawthorn
This was a recent find and we loved the whole shebang – food, drinks and vibe. The roasted duck wings and Espresso Martini Cocktails were top notch.
Honourable Mentions to Cottesloe Beach Hotel (Beach Club) and Core Cider House
A Leederville stalwart, with excellent tapas, wine list and a fab atmosphere too.
El Publico – Highgate The best Mexican around, by award winning Chef Sam Ward. The lamb belly tacos are lush 🙂 
Honourable mention to Eagle Bay Brewing Co – Nr Dunsbourgh A must stop for any trip to the south west. Good pub food and very family friendly.
Fuku Omakase and Teppanyaki – Mosman Park
This boutique teppanyaki bar is excellent. The chefs are highly skilled and their “tricks” are fun to watch. Not just a dinner, an experience!
A view to die for, overlooking Busselton Jetty and Geographe Bay.
An special mention for Great British Chippy for bringing real pommie chips to Perth!
Hippo Creek – Hillarys Boat Harbour
A must for meat lovers! Very tasty steaks.
Il lido Italian Canteen – Cottesloe
Great spot for a coastal brunch, overlooking Cottesloe Beach.
I’ve been there twice & Mr Oliver doesn’t disappoint. Excellent value for money and family friendly.
Honourable mention to Joondalup Resort, a relaxing spot for nibbles and drinks by the pool.
A lovely hidden cafe in Lathlain. They serve excellent coffee and a delicious all day brunch menu.
Little Creatures Brewery – Fremantle
A Freo icon not only famed for it’s excellent Beer. The menu features fantastic pizzas and share food. The shady beer garden and huge sandpit make it great for families.
Part two M – Z will be coming soon 🙂
