Homestead Brewery, Mandoon Estate – Swan Valley

A few months ago, we had the praises of the Mandoon Estate and its casual dining restaurant – the Homestead Brewery – sung to us, so we decided to make a day trip of it to the Swan Valley and check this place out. We […]

  • Northbridge is always reliable as a source of late night food, especially when @the.industrious.kwokka finishes work late. It was back to City Garden Chinese Restaurant to try their recommended Sichuan Chilli Chicken with Bones. 🌶 🔥 🌶 ♥️ . . . . . . . . . #perthfoodblogger #perthfoodie #northbridge #northbridgeeats #perthchinesefood #citygardenchineserestaurant #perthlatenighteats #shotoniphone #chinesefood #chinesefoodlover #spicyfood #spicyfoodaddict
  • YES, so happy this place has opened near home! The food is interesting and delicious and the coffee is GREAT. The hash with the black pudding is actually crispy and flavoursome, and the smooth blue cheese sauce on the burger is light, velvety and pleasant. The place has been busy since it opened half a week ago and deservedly so. It’s the third cafe to open in this spot, and here’s hoping it’s the last for a long long time.👌👍👍 You can find 115 Groundhouse at the Harvest Lakes village shopping centre in Atwell, right outside the Woolies. . . . . . . #breakfastinperth #perthbreakfast #brunchinperth #perthbrunch #perthcafes #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #cockburncafes #perthfood #pertheats #perthcafe #atwell #aubingrove #cockburn #shotoniphone
  • Today’s food styling and photography workshop by @olympus_au and @thebestludik was super educational! Food really does look so much prettier after being styled by someone who knows what they’re doing! Thanks heaps for running the workshop, and it would be awesome to have more events like these in Perth. 😊 And the yummy looking cakes are apparently from @pixelcoffee in Leederville. 💕🍰 . . . . . . . . #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #pixelcoffeebrewers #pixelcoffee #foodphotography #foodphotographyandstyling #witholympus #olympusinspired #cakes #granola #dessert #olympusaustralia
  • To avoid the weekend Mother’s Day crowds, mum opted for a super early celebration instead. 😂 And we were well rewarded with no wait time at Dragon Palace Cockburn Gateway. Makes me wonder if anyone else decided to skip the actual day altogether for similar reasons. 😂😂😂 . . . . . . #earlymothersday #dimsum #yumcha #dragonpalacecockburn #perthbrunch

  • The rain stopped long enough for me to head to the beach and capture some long exposure shots at the SS Wyola wreck. ◾️Both pics taken using the Olympus EM1.2 at 40mm, ISO64, CPL filter on, plus the below ND filters at different settings: ▪️1st pic: Hoya ND400 filter at 10 sec exposure, F7.1 ▪️2nd pic: Neewer ND8 filter at 1 sec exposure, F13 . I picked up a pack of Neewer ND2/4/8 filters from Amazon on a whim. Going at just AUD19.99, the thought was “Why not?” For that price, the result isn’t bad! (Although ND2/4/8 is still a liiiiitle light for the Aussie sun, but I’m sure I can put them to good use anyway.) . . . . . . . . #neewerfilters #neewer #cyoconnorbeach #wyolashipwreck #sswyola #shipwreck #shipwreckbeach #northcoogee #coogee #perth #WesternAustralia #westernaustraliabeaches #longexposure #longexpo #longexposures #sea #oceanlongexposure #perthisok #cityofcockburn
