European inspired cafe, food store & catering service

Deli Chicchi - Mt Claremont

Oxford St, Leederville

The strip of Oxford St between Vincent St and Leederville Parade has rapidly become one of Perth's cosmopolitan epicentres. A great range of cafes, restaurants and gelaterias, along with more than it's share of funky stores selling everything from vinyl LPs to the latest in street fashion, make this the place to go for many Perth people.

Review: The Naked Fig Cafe - Swanbourne Beachfront, Perth WA

Despite a history of poor reviews, especially in relation to the service, we decided recently to brunch at The Naked Fig cafe/restaurant on the Swanbourne beach front. With such a great location, it can only be hoped that food and service standards at this establishment can be raised and sustained to satisfy most of the diners, most of the time.

What better way to spend an evening than by combining a couple of the finer things in life, wine and art.

United Galleries made that possible in Perth recently with the "Grand Tour" exhibition (by Wendy Sharp and Bernard Ollis) and a wine tasting event dubbed the "Wines of the Year" tasting hosted by United Cellars. A good number of art and wine connoisseurs filled the United Galleries Perth gallery in Northbridge to view and eclectic collection of pictures by two of Australia's finest artists.

With exquisite food photography by Earl Carter, Thai Street Food by David Thompson effectively captures the unique atmosphere of Thailand's street food and market culture.

Thai food is complex and wide-ranging in texture and flavours but not traditionally suited to Western style restaurant dining. It is more a cuisine of dishes to be served to and shared by a family, or bought from a street vendor. Thompson's great achievement has been to create often spectacular restaurant dishes that have won the consistent acclaim of diners and critics alike, without sacrificing the essence of traditional Thai cooking.

Review: Anna Vietnamese Restaurant, Oxford St, Leederville

To have been in business in the same location for over 20 years, Anna Vietnamese Restaurant in Oxford St, Leederville must either be doing a lot right or maybe just doing very little wrong. We recently dropped in for dinner to see which it might be...

One the hottest dining experiences in Perth at the moment is a burger joint

For any food establishment that achieves greatness, fresh, quality ingredients are always to the forefront. Jus Burgers is no different, with a strong focus on Western Australian produce. All the burger components are hand selected from the best of locally available meat, poultry, fish and vegetables.

Wine Dinner Featuring European Wine with Food Pairings at Steves Fine Wine in Nedlands

Steves Fine Wine in Nedlands recently conducted a European Wine Dinner and Masterclass hosted by Neville Yates from Eurocentric Wine Importers. French champagnes, German rieslings and red and white Burgundies were served with classic food pairings in what proved to be an extremely enjoyable, and highly informative, evening for wine lovers.
