Abysmal. Definitely won't be going back any time soon.

I really really dislike managers berating staff in front of guests. It is absolutely uncalled for. This is the second time the owner has made me frown. What a shame as our breakfasts were absolutely delicious albeit overpriced. I won't be going back. Ever.

Some nights there is nothing better than ordering pub grub.
Crust
I must be growing up (old). Rather than partying on through the night after Creamfields I opted for a post festival Saturday night in with pizza, red wine and a movie. I stopped off at Crust Mt Lawley owned by my lovely friend Foodie Cravings and her burgerboy. I ordered the Supreme and Pesto Chicken ahead and fought every demon to not open the box before I got home. I always start with just one slice of each, before I know it I am three slices in, then its bed time and we have eaten every morsel and swear to eat salad tomorrow. This is a perfect Saturday night.

Five Bar
As the days get cooler and the rain starts to fall, spicier beers are a little more seductive. My bf had a hankering for Innis & Gunn rum cask that we had tried at the Around the World beer tasting last year. It went so well with the Reuben Sandwich and Steak Tartare.
I found the spider chart on the Innis & Gunn website.
Mrs S
Nothing screams EAT ME like absolutely everything on the counter at Mrs S. It is always full of gorgeous delights. No time to enjoy breakfast so I said a quick hello to Mrs S and Nai then grabbed a yummy savoury muffin to scoff in the car. I am always a sucker for arriving with a gift so I bought my friend Maddy this minx of a mudcake below.
Tak Chee
When you ask chicken rice? and two of your favourite foodie friends say TAK CHEE. It wasn't really a suggestion ... more like an order! We ordered Hainanese Chicken Rice and Penang Kway Teow. The chicken was oh so tender and derrishhh. I did wake up a little thirsty. Damn you Asian flavour enhancers!
Bonnie Lassie
Oh gosh. I just love Bonnie's illustrations. I was so chuffed that she whipped up a gorgeous little thank you sticker for our Autumn Roving Dinner gift bags. Thank you Bonnie! You are just a GEM, a very very talented gem xx

Oh I love this little coffee shop in Leederville! Maybe it is because my friend Terri works there and I get to see her little face or maybe it's the relaxed kitschy vintage feel and gorgeous little desserts and abundant tea choice. Who cares. Just visit. If this place had wifi I would never ever leave.

The boys at Zambrero's treated our Roving Dinner guests to some pretty mean chilli seeds for our little gift bags.

The friendly folk at Fresh Provisions popped these treats into our goodie bags for the Autumn Roving Dinner.
