Nom Nom in Perth

When we planned for this trip to Perth, one of the things I look forward to was the food. Western food is not new in Malaysia. But to have one that is authentic from the originating country (sort of), the thought excites my taste bud.

So here's the food we ate while in Perth...

First day:
Simple English breakfast at one of the small cafe inside Myer Hypermall, Perth CBD. This breakfast lasted me till 5pm!

Second day:

There is this cafe called Opal Cafe on a road side that we'd definitely passed by on the way to the CAT bus stop. It was our breakfast stopover for almost half of the mornings we were in Perth.

Egg and Bacon on toast.

At Cape Lavender Farm; Lavender infused scones. Honestly, this was my first bite on scones. ^__^

Our lunch during the wine tour at Edgecombe Brothers; the asparagus is home-grown and freshly picked daily. Perfect lunch with chilled white wine.

Next, we tasted their hand-crafted ice-cream served with muscat wine. Superb!

In the evening, upon returning to the city from the countryside, we stopped by at Han's Cafe to try out the Vietnam cuisine which hubby remembered was good. Well, not anymore. Or perhaps, the ones back home are much better.

After dinner, we went to Belgian Beer Cafe, a treat by our Sabahan friend, Timothy

Bommen and Granaten (Bom and Grenade), a Belgian handcrafted flat beer made by monks. The bottle's mouth is sealed with wax and it costs a whopping AUD60.00!! It tasted sweetish and it packs quite a punch (14% alcohol). My first time ever drinking flat beer (beer with no gas). Two glasses and that's enough to get me warm and funny.
