The Green House, Perth
The green house Perth. A great little place for breakfast while you watch the pulse of the city start to beat for the day. As the office workers came in drones, coming and going like worker bees to a flower bed, ever conscious of maintaining their queen… I sat and watched… And many gathered around…

bangers and mash on the fire
BANGERS AND MASH SAUSAGES AND MASHED POTATO SAUSAGE AND TWO POTATOES (that could be something different) It’s an old skool pub favourite but, just like everything else in the cheffy wanky world, it needs to be revisited, reinvented and damn well re-rodgered*.
