Seeking out West End Cake Shop one day on SixThousand's advice, I spied The Food Store across the street and ventured inside for a simple coffee. Taken aback by a display case filled with appetising savoury treats, all prepared within the open kitchen behind the counter, I decided upon lunch (even though it was 10.45am). The salmon, spinach and egg kosher bagel was fantastic, as was the gigantic strawberry and white chocolate muffin that followed.
With gluten-and-wheat free options, the menu changes daily, so nothing ever becomes stale. With the attentive wait staff and a manager that knows all the regulars by name (go on, give her a pop quiz!) I felt like becoming a regular myself. Now all we need is someone to seek out The Food Store and stumble upon another place to review for SixThousand, so the circle can continue.

About
SixThousand is a subcultural guide to Perth, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Perth writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence SixThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
