 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...

The mighty corner bar; popular spot amongst hip Leedy-goers. Sundown sesh From Monday to Thursday 4pm to 6pm, you can enjoy PINTXOS; an ultimate Spanish bar experience as authentic as it can get. Blueberry cocktail was delicious! And you can enjoy a free bite with a purchase of an alcoholic drink. Wait there's more!   They have Happy Hour from 4.30-5.30PM. Spread at the bar Cheap and delicious Brought to the table We had a quick scan of the bites available at the bar and picked a few to try out. We returned to our table and the dishes were brought out to us by the wait staff shortly afterwards. Each of the dish's flavours packed a punch. We recommend you to try Blood Mary in tiny shot glass, fig, jamon serrano, goats cheese on bread and tortilla, aioli, pimento on bread for a buck! House made Sangria traditional Spanish way Bloody Mary At first glance of the PINTXOS available, we were worried we won't be lea...

If you see a long line of hungry diners waiting for a bite of their juicy buns.   Menu When we go to restaurants to dine out, there definitely is a sense of trust if it has an open kitchen. It's very inclusive and inviting. They have a dumpling section right by the front window of the restaurant where passers-by can get a clear view of Dumpling Masters filling in dumplings. Everything on the menu here at Juicy Bao Bao is very affordable and you don't have to wait long for your order to arrive even during peak hours. So despite having to wait in the line to get inside, the turn over here is very quick. Shang-hai stir fried noodles This was your average Shanghai stir-fried noodles with shredded meat and vegetables for $12.8. The noodles were a tad overcooked for my personal preference (I like a little texture in noddles). So I would most likely order something else next time I visit the restaurant. Juicy soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao) It just ...

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...

Perthyums &. spends the weekend at Pan Pacific Perth - Perth's ultimate Staycation destination. We checked in to the Club Suite room which costs a little more but gives exclusive privileges that elevates a vacation to something a little more luxurious- we think the space and the view might just be enough to convince you otherwise! CLICK HERE to book now! Guide into the Club Suite Robes, tea and view Sunset from our room on 7th floor We were mesmerised by the riverside view and the spaciousness of the room. It had a separate bedroom with a king-sized bed, a small living area and also a fold-out bed in our case to accommodate for three people in a one-bedded room. Nevertheless, there was an ample space to fit all three of us. The room also featured a separate work/lounging space and free high speed wi-fi which is always a bonus when staying at a hotel. King-sized bed Executive work space For luxurious escape, we would recommend upgrading t...
