  • #homemade After spending the start of CNY in MR, there was a roast pork craving that needed to be filled. So I made some, done Chinese style on top, Western on the bottom. 2 days of drying in the fridge for the rind, then baked with a salt crust to get that crackle. Then a salt rub made from fresh sage, thyme, rosemary and garlic, all crushed in a mortar and pestle, applied to the rest of the meat. . . . . . #roastpork #homecooking #porkcrackle #siewnyuk #siobak
  • Pork belly okonomiyaki from Drift Cafe in Margaret River town. You can't see the okonomiyaki but it's hidden under all that egg and pork, and the pork tasted like tao you bak (stewed soy sauce pork)! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #margaretriver #australiassw #australiassouthwest #southwestaustralia #westernaustralia #westisbest #mustdowa #experienceperth #margslife #perth #breakfast #driftcafe #driftcafemr #margaretriverbreakfast #okonomiyaki #porkbelly
  • The Berry Farm in Margaret River was a happy little accidental detour for afternoon tea. The food is pretty wonderful. The pastry was so light in everything we had and the sweetness and tartness in everything was just right! Pictured is a passionfruit cheesecake and lovely freshly baked scones in the background. And as an added bonus, pretty little birds came by to say hi! (Birds posted on my other insta in profile). . . . . . . . . . #margaretriver #justanotherdayinwa #australiassw #australiassouthwest #southwestaustralia #westernaustralia #westisbest #mustdowa #experienceperth #margslife #margaretriverbakery #perth #afternoontea #theberryfarm

  • Supermoon rising. . Took a whole series of shots and made quite a few rookie mistakes while trying to get the supermoon with a foreground. Ended up ditching the foreground in the composite altogether and managed to put this together. It's not as sharp as I would like it, but it was a good learning experience! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #supermoon #supermoon2019 #moon #perth #moonrising
  • Something else a little closer to home - Island Point Reserve in Mandurah at sunset. And we've discovered that we can't shoot here on weekends, because it's chock full of crabbers. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #justanotherdayinwa #westernaustralia #soperth #perthisok #perth_life #perthlife #perthbest #amazing_wa #perth #thisisperth #seeperth #icwest #amazingwa #destinationwa #westernaustraliauncovered #westisbest #mustdowa #experienceperth #mandurah #islandpointreserve #perthhiddengems
