I just discovered your webiste recently. I will be taking my gastranomically adventurous son to yumcha this Friday on your recommendation of the Welcome Inn Teahouse. He first (and last) had yumcha at around 15 months and hoed into it with gusto at a place in Francis street. He has had a life long love of salt and pepper squid and I wish I had video of him desperately devouring the not so tender squid like he was pulling at chewing gum. Thank you for posting pics, as I have been to a few places who do not serve the deep fried meat dumplings. I know them as Taro dumpling from eating them in Adelaide and have sorely missed them.

I too adore curries and non traditional food for breakfast. I am not a chilli wuss by any means and have always defended my love of consuming these foods in the morning by exclaiming “that if nothing else is fully awake my taste buds will be the first”.

I understand you are busy but when you have the opportunity could you please give me your opinion on a good place for Laksa. I live in Dianella, so something close by or between CBD/Northbridge would be great. If you live or visit nearby let me know – I would be happy to give you some of my homemade Thai curry pastes – green, red and Panang. They are not too spicy for the aforementioned junior gastronome.

Thanks for the entertaining blog. I refer to my Gourmet Traveller magazines as food porn, so I found it amusingly coincidental to find a review for your blog in an STM sometime this year.

Take care,
Margot

Hi Margot, thanks for your comment. Great to hear from another non-traditional breakfast fare eater! :P Did your son enjoy Welcome Inn?

We’ve enjoyed the laksa at Penang Foods Restaurant in Northbridge

Hi,
I enjoy visiting your site. I like those Gozleme and farmers market scene. Farmers market is big here in the northwest of U.S.A. I wonder what its like there in Western Australia?

Hi Shane,
Glad you enjoy the site.
We do have farmers markets, mostly on weekends. I must admit I haven’t really been to many – usually have too much other stuff to do, like shopping, running errands etc! My sister Juji went to a farmers market in June that was very good – see the post at her blog: Subiaco Farmers Market

Two recent encounters while at work in Montreal:

1. Montreal Smoked Meats
2. Poutine

Have you had any Perth encounters?

Hey BB!
I’ve missed you. Hope Mrs, Ms and Master B are well. Haven’t had any Montreal food and definitely not poutine. I want to try it though.

Hey,
I just wanted to know if you watch Heston’s Feast on SBS and if you love it. I was thinking of your blog last night when I was watching thinking “oh my gosh, the pictures TFP would take!”

Hi Rebecca,
I’ve never watched an entire episode but what I’ve seen I’ve really enjoyed. I have the Heston’s Feasts Season 1 DVD sitting in my shelf, bought recently – but haven’t had a chance to sit down and watch properly. I will one of these days for sure. YES – it would be awesome to be there at one of the dinners to take photos!

janice,
See the end of this post: Poffertjes (dutch mini pancakes) test run for suppliers of poffertjes mix in Perth.

See this post: Poffertjes Yum premium Dutch pancake mix for information about Poffertjes Yum and a link to their website where they have an online store from which you can order poffertjes mix.

That’s all the information I have, I’m no expert on poffertjes.

Hello! I wasn’t sure where the best place to post this
would be, but here seems as good a place as any…! It was my 21st
birthday party last night, and I thought you’d be hungrified to
know that we had 50kg of roast pig, crackling and all (with bread
rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and salad, of course!). :D We have a
large tupperware of crackling sitting in our fridge and I’m (not
so) slowly working my way through it as I pack to go back to
university. :D I thought of you. ;) I think there’s porky pictures
lurking around somewhere, too – I’ll post them on your Facebook
when I come across them!

reena,
I have nothing to do with O’Mama apart from having eaten there and written a blog post about the experience – you will have to contact them directly.

Just came across your blog while looking for reviews on the Philips Airfryer.
Took a look at the blog. The great food pictures are making me hungry. It is 12.30 a.m. here! Being a photography enthusiast (thought not into food photography yet), I must say you take great food pictures. Keep up the good work (photography and writing) !

I really love your food blog! It has helped me get excited about eating out here in Perth. My friend has just started a Korean Restaurant in Shelley. Its homestyle Korean food cooked with no msg and fresh ingredients. Quite different from the typical Korean restaurants here and certainly worth a try.

Disclosure – My son works there Sat nights and the owner is a good friend of mine :)

Very interesting reading through your blog! I am heading to big noodle house mid week after having red how good value the meals were!

I would highly recommend a cafe restaurant in Attadale which is extremely popular with the locals. Attadales hidden secret, if you will. Its called Charisma cafe and is located within the row of shops on Hislop Road. It doesnt look like much from the outside but i promise it is worth the trip.

There is an all day breakfast however i find 11.30/12 to be the perfect time to head in as you then have the option of breakfast, the specials board with meals from the kitchen, the most amazing fresh salads which appear to change daily, and a hotbox crammed with homemade goodies! I go there regularly and am yet to try the same thing twice. Oh, and they use Fiori coffee.. Need i say more!

The lunch service does appear to be quite early and short, as the kitchen closes at 2 from memory. So 11.30am would be the ideal time to score the salads and food before they all go!

Hey love your works and your website :)
just though give you recommendation on this hidden treasure that i found tucked in Rockingham.
Italian Restaurant call “Andiamo Cafe” check it out and let me know.. As this place blow my mind, and i am not exactly easily impress. So i though you have a better venue to tell more people :)

cheers

Hello TFP,
do you know of a place that is good for roast chicken rice….my friend doesn’t like the hainanese version and we would like to hear your recommendation

love you blog, keep up the good work :)

thanks!!!!

31 TFP December 27, 2011 at 10:14 am

Grace,
My friend Charlene loves the roast chicken rice at Spoon in North Perth. I tend not to get roast chicken rice as I’m tempted by Hainanese chicken rice or other roast meats and rice – will have a think and ask readers on Facebook and hopefully come back with more suggestions!
