A sticking point does not mar perfection

by Cellobella on Sunday, August 7, 2011 · 3 comments

I went to dinner at Unraveled last night. Took some doing. Mainly because in my head I thought I was trying to book “Entangled”. Which isn’t a bad name for a pasta restaurant I thought. Anyhow I couldn’t find a reference to my imagined destination online but I could find the number to the restaurant [...]

At Ezra Pound

by Cellobella on Friday, April 1, 2011 · 3 comments

I discovered a new bar in town last night. A bar that made me feel like I was in Melbourne. Maybe it was the street art vibe… Maybe it was the fact I was out on in Northbridge with friends for the second night in a week. Ezra Pound was of course a famous American poet at [...]

Tapas in Fremantle

by Cellobella on Friday, December 24, 2010

We checked out Gypsy Tapas in Fremantle and you know what? It was good. They offer an all you can eat for $40/head option but we were stuffed by plate 11 so I suspect you wouldn’t get great value for the all you can eat option unless you were a real piggy pig. And we [...]

Harvesting a good time

by Cellobella on Monday, October 11, 2010 · 3 comments

Saturday night we went out to dinner with some close friends at Harvest in Fremantle. We chose Harvest because it was in our Entertainment Book (so we got a discount) and it was half way between our houses. And as a bonus – right next to our table – Liz Green sang for us. Liz [...]

Two days in Sydney

by Cellobella on Thursday, August 26, 2010 · 1 comment

Following my last post, after two days in Sydney I can no longer fit into my daughter’s size 5 jeans (size 5 is about a 9 in real language). A pork roll from James’s favourite cheap lunch spot. Lasagne! At least I have avoided all the yummy pastries from the (count them) five gorgeous bakeries [...]

Tasting Pink Zulu

by Cellobella on Monday, July 5, 2010

A couple of new restaurant/wine bars have opened near us and today we popped into one of them, Pink Zulu, to check it out. The coffees were great as was the hot chocolate but for Dippity the highlight was the Zulu Rose dessert. Almond and date filo coil, vanilla bean ice cream, rose syrup and [...]

Lunch at Mosmans

by Cellobella on Friday, December 18, 2009 · 2 comments

The girls: The grandmas: The daughters: The daddy: And me: We met for lunch at Mosmans to discuss Christmas. A serious subject indeed. Who would cook what? What time? Actually I’m not sure we discussed that apart from a general understanding of “evening”. What are we doing about presents? And the answers? Well we’re doing [...]

Pata Negra Restaurant Review

by Cellobella on Sunday, October 4, 2009

See… now the logo makes sense! I don’t usually do restaurant reviews on this blog but Friday night we went to Pata Negra, the new Tapas bar open on Stirling Highway… opposite my fave Vietnamese restaurant TQR. It was fantastic. The food was ALL good. Of course I am rubbish when it comes to Tapas. [...]

A perfect life

by Cellobella on Thursday, July 23, 2009 · 4 comments

What would you do next if you were at the top of your game in a Melbourne restaurant? Open another restaurant? Get even more busy? Well the fellow who runs this place got it right I reckon. He has a restaurant in Albany which he opens when he feels like it. Maybe he’ll open the [...]

Lunch at Cape Clairault

by Cellobella on Thursday, January 29, 2009 · 10 comments

For our anniversary lunch, Groover took me out to Cape Clairault, Yallingup. OMG the food is to die for.  See menu. This was Groover’s starter. The food is not cheap. The starters were about $20 each. They were perfect. Tempura prawns with zuchini flowers and peach slices. Oh and our starters weren’t on the menu [...]
