The standard

Image
 The high standard at the Standard Perth sets the bar for classy bars in Perth! Too many puns for your liking? ;) T he chef Chase Weber has been working hard since the beginning of the Standard, fusing Asian cuisine into Western bar culture to pair with cocktails and wines and beers, and has been doing it well. In fact, he was crowned the winner of the competition at the Winning Appliances for the WA Good Food Guide's Chef's cook-off. This turmeric wafer duck salad was the winning dish. Most dishes are designed to be shared (or not to be shared which are some of the other dishes on offer on menu). The Spring/Summer menu here is all brand-new except for two dishes which managed to stay; one of which is their famous kangaroo dish (Caramelised kangaroo, sesame soy custard, pineapple, finger lime). CLICK here for the full menu Kingfish ceviche, toasted coconut, vinaigrette, sour coconut This elegant dish was a great start to our course mea...

Mammoth meal

Image
Yes, you've heard of a high-tea before... but have you heard of a BEER high tea?! Matching the beer theme We were kindly invited to try out the latest initiative at Baby Mammoth in Northbridge, beer high tea which (you'll be glad to know) they plan to do regularly; hopefully monthly, with local breweries. We sure drink recklessly to sustain our never-ending appetite, but beer isn't usually our go-to-drink at bars. So we didn't really know what we were getting ourselves into except for the fact that Beer High Tea sounded intriguing. All the tables were set out neat and nice and the great thing about Baby Mammoth is that it is a small local business owned by a young couple, Tania and Ryan who has worked hard to build up their brand and have rightfully gained respect and trust from the crowd as the place to dine in on William Street, Northbridge. And to those of you who are not familiar with Baby Mammoth (but you should really try their food and drinks!), it...

Chill at Camfield

Image
We might have found a perfect spot for date nights, family nights, before-the-game nights, just some drinks night and good food nights. Located conveniently across the Optus Stadium, the Camfield boasts 6 separate bars, it's very own (Bevy) Brewery, space to cater for over 3000 guests as well as a private hall that can be booked for private functions or weddings. Across from the Optus Stadium DNA bridge Outdoor screen area Not only was the food great, the space and interior were impressive; great outdoor area for Summer nights but also cozy areas for Winter nights. Plus, the completed DNA bridge, waterfront and cityscape view can be seen from inside through the panoramic windows. Bevy Brewery Custom designed Beer Paddle Chargrilled Pork Belly Bites This gluten free dish consisted of pork belly, nam jim, carrot, coriander, crackle and black sesame and pairs well with the Bevy First Lager (4.4%). Chilli Mozzarella Arancini Paired wit...

TWR Lounge Bar

Image
It was the attention to detail as well as the sophistication and top-notch service but most of all, tasty cocktails served with perfection that crowned the Crown Tower's The Waiting Room (TWR) as the WA's Best Cocktail Bar in 2017 AHA-AON Hospitality Awards for Excellence and the best bar in 2018 Gourmet Traveller Australian Hotel Awards. Read the article from PerthNow It is a huge achievement for the team at The Waiting Room (short for TWR ), a stylish cocktail bar that opened in 2016 and already well known to many WA patrons who love impeccable service paired with good vibes if the three-tonne chandeliers and its luxurious decor and even better drinks are anything to go by. If you are still not convinced that this bar delivers, you may be impressed by the fact that they sell approximately 2.5k caramel espresso martinis each month (one of the best cocktails on the menu and is here to stay!); that has to mean something! Caramel espresso martini on ...

Tiisch Cafe & Bistro

Image
This article is mainly dedicated to the NEW dinner service available at the Tiisch cafe and bistro . However, they do have an extensive range of dishes from breakfast, brunch to dinner menus. CLICK to see menu or book The word ' Tiisch ' is derived from 'Zu Tisch' which means table. German Kings would say to gather community around a table to dine together. I think this sings perfectly throughout the bistro what with community tables and dining tables all lined up as if we are dining together. The real OOMPH factor here is the transition between breakfast/lunch to dinner. During the sunlight hours, the cafe is vibrant, fresh and inviting. On the contrast, during their dinner service, the cafe completely transforms into almost a new venue; a modern bistro, which enables customers to immerse themselves into the whole experience. It's intimate and exciting.💓 I must mention, their cocktail list is delicious and inventive! I opted for Avante Gardner as ...
