Lums Wine Bar.

Lums Wine Bar: Where everyone seems to have won the DNA lottery

The first time we visited Lums, we lasted about five minutes and bolted. First impressions can be wrong.

Buns at Lotus.

Exciting, bombastic: The Beaufort’s Lotus takes it up a notch

The food is not an afterthought at Lotus, but a small part of the unbridled fun that occurs every evening at the Beaufort once the curtain goes up, the bars fill and the fun begins.

Isola Bar e Cibo on Rottnest Island main picture. Pictures: Rob Broadfield

A perfectly cooked rare steak on Rottnest? And not on your own barbecue? It exists

It’s not hyperbolic to suggest Isola Bar e Cibo has the bones, aesthetics, and casual refinement of a beachside restaurant in Italy’s north-west.

Brisket: Delicious. A must-have.

Rosie’s Deli isn’t haute cuisine - it’s the real deal

Rosie’s Deli is not so much a restaurant as dinner at a mate’s place. And what a dinner it is.

Miss Mi makes staying at the Novotel for dinner worth it

There’s no weird stuff from try-hard chefs, just solid technique, bold flavour, imaginative cookery and a casual, likeable approach.

Vin Populi owners Dan Morris and Emma Ferguson.

This Freo restaurant ‘rewards serious wine drinkers’, and has an impeccable menu to match

The gentrification of a suburb can best be gauged by its restaurant and bar culture. And Vin Populi is right up there with the best the port city has to offer.

It may just be a suburban take-away joint, but Rym Tarng is the real deal.

‘Sorry mate’: Why we had to review this suburban Perth take-out

Rym Tarng reminded us of those roadside street hawkers that appear from nowhere at about 6pm on some of Bangkok’s busiest thoroughfares.

Sana’s offering is an authentic retelling of Middle Eastern street food in the heart of Fremantle.

Middle East meets Freo in authentic retelling of Levant dining

Sana’s dishes are on par with the best street food we’ve eaten in the Middle East with presentation worthy of a warm afternoon in the Jordan valley.

Not a bad setting.

Frosty rosé and stunning river views, but you could find the same food in a roadhouse

It was bloody perfect. A champagne day. Sitting on a balcony overlooking the shimmery Canning River. Food is not the main game at a place like this.

The Terrace, Cottesloe Beach Hotel.

Give the steak a miss when you join the haves and have yachts at The Cott

It’s not half bad. In fact, in the pantheon of Perth pub grub it’s a cut above.
