I love food!

As I mentioned earlier I have been eating a lot and I wanted to share some of the places I've been to this month. First of all, gorgeous Fel took me to The Secret Garden Cafe for Brunch one morning. It is a beautiful little cafe with a magnificent garden with water features, a wishing well and miniature bridges and the atmosphere is just so warm and relaxing.

I ordered Stuffed mushrooms with toast, a poached egg and salad on the side. Let me tell you it was one of the best meals I have ever had in awhile and I dream about the stuffed mushrooms all the time! I must admit, I do love my mushrooms though. I loved it so much that I tried to recreate a similar dish at home (not succeeding, but that's not the point). I will definitely have to go back and have those mushrooms again!

If you are looking for a new cafe to try, I highly recommend this place! And try the stuffed mushrooms!

Another eatery I went to was the Burger Bistro located at Leederville. I had lunch there with Robbie because we've walked past a couple of times and it looks quite groovy with its light globe decorations and Banksy art hanging around the walls of the place.


I ordered the Hey pesto Burger which consist of hand made CAAB Angus beef patty with fresh basil leaf, shaved parmesan, basil pesto and tomato relish on a bed of salads.


I really liked their tomato relish in the burger as well as a dip for the chips however the burger itself did not blow my mind away. It was a decent burger but I did not crave for it. Otherwise, real nice atmosphere and lovely presentation.

Lunch at Jean Pierre Sancho

Lovely Fel & I

Finally got to visit Jean Pierre Sancho with the lovely Fel, on the corner of Hay Street and Shafto Lane. This little french cafe made me feel like I was in Paris again with the delicate pattiseries and the french staff with their uppish attitude. Don't get me wrong, loved the experience and the food was enjoyable. The flavoured macarons were a treat and the potato & tomato soup was amazingly creamy and I wanted more when I was done. The soup-to-bread ratio was not nearly enough but I would have it again. We also tried some layered meringue & cream dessert (not sure what it was called-something in French) that was quite delicious. The decor was simple yet beautiful with the vintage looking furniture, chandelier and beautiful crafted framed mirrors reflecting a French ambiance. If you're looking for a new cafe to try, I would recommend it.

Terrazza Cafe & Restaurant

Third time lucky? This is the second time Jia and I have tried to eat at Il Ciao's but I think we're just not destined to eat there!! First time we couldn't find it, second time... IT WAS FRGN CLOSED!! Anyhoos, we ended up at Terrazza Cafe & Restaurant instead and the food was alright, wasn't that great. Looked better on the menu.

This is what I had.

BRUSCHETTA (2 slices)...................................
Fresh Tomato, Basil, Onion and Olive Oil on Garlic Bread

GRILLED SPANISH CHICKEN....................
Half deboned marinated Spring chicken served with our own
Spanish glaze, fresh Garden salad and fries

Doesn't it sound spectacular! But yeah I've had better :) Ended up going shopping at Habour Town and Jia got new boots which came with a free pair of uggs and we got matching dresses that were on sale!! Nothing like Retail Therapy!!

Coffee and Cake

On Saturday afternoon, I went to the Merchant Tea and Coffee House in Fremantle with a couple of friends from Uni. We were meant to go to Norfolk Pub but we just wanted some coffee and cake so we decided to look around for a cafe. We all sat down and ordered our food, I don't think anyone actually ended up getting coffee. I must admit the food there wasn't spectacular, I ordered hot chocolate and a choc mint fudge cake which was alright. My friend who loves her Chai Lattes said that they make the worse Chai lattes ever!! Although we did sneak over to Dome next door to take away carrot cake, that was delicious!

The best cakes are at utopia, Myaree! I also like their bread selections, reminds me of the bakeries in Singapore. The evening ended up in timezone where we took a couple of photo stickers and we won a Minnie mouse toy.
