Perth Restaurants and Bars - Eat Drink
From morning to midnight and back again, EAT/DRINK is SixThousand's guide to cafes, bars and restaurants in Perth. We know the best coffee because we drink 20 a day (each), we know the good restaurants because we can't cook, and we'll tell you where to find hidden bars and other places that still let you smoke so that we can ask you for a cigarette when you get there. EAT/DRINK is as voracious as our appetites and a much better filter than our livers, which stopped working a long time ago. Email your EAT/DRINK suggestions to: talk@sixthousand.com.au
Estia
In the fifteen years I've lived in Inglewood, not once did I see a customer go into Inglewood Pizza. Not a soul, just two teenage dudes in aprons standing behind the counter looking bored. Whenever anyone would walk past, their faces would light up at the prospect of some customers, but as the people walked on, their faces slumped and they would go back to staring at their mounds of grated cheese and jalapenos.
Kaditj Café
When it came time to throw a bush dance party, my housemates and I were faced with one very serious problem. We had the matching tracksuits, Rivers. Synthetic Akubra hat knock offs. Didgeridoo remix album. Even a bush band out the front of the house. But we couldn't find quandong jam for the damper, and everyone knows you can't have a bush dance party without quandong jam and damper.
Doughnut Toast
The only way I know how to eat a stale doughnut is fresh out of the microwave - a method that sucks because of the initial hot hot hot juggle, followed by a stale-again ending. Thanks Dad.
Freya Baska (Maja's little sister) recently invented Doughnut Toast. The single best ever way to put those $1 semi-stale supermarket doughnuts to excellent use.
Hawker Food Hall
Law enforcement and severe discomfort didn't force the Thornlie tree man down from his perch a few months ago. Despite having a website dedicated to his cause, the real reason he ended his stand involved not being able to go another day without eating a Singapore seafood omelette from Thornlie's Hawker Food Hall.
Little Willy's
At the wee age of three, our very own Dancing Goat has just birthed a Little Willy! That's right, Hot Rob and Ho(ter) Annie have stripped out the old El Verde Gusto café in Northbridge and fitted the place with hand made table tops made from salvaged timber, refurbished diner booths, and mini stools that you could shine your shoes on.
Macc
The best things in life may not be free, but they do come in threes. Three clicks from the Freo train station is a three-storeyed sculpture studio called the Fibonacci Centre. The balcony of this wrought-iron design centre is a cafe (and sometimes restaurant) called Macc, which serves three types of paper-thin organic dough pizzas topped with handpicked local produce.
La Galette de France
Going to the Subiaco markets at 8.45am on a Saturday morning, feeling a little stale and sore from the night before, it feels serendipitous to arrive to La Galette de France at the exact moment the owner is bringing out chocolate croissants.
The still hot, dark, chocolate is a perfect 70% cocoa, the croissant not too doughy, or crunchy.
