The Qantas Wine Awards are Western Australia’s most prestigious wine show which has been running since 1978. I was completely blown away to be invited along by the lovely team at Evans & Tate to the Awards Dinner at the Hyatt Regency in Perth. The night was full of glitter and glam as the winners of…
I have ate at the Rose & Crown in Guildford more times than I can remember. At one stage it came to a point where I would only order the pork belly, I was obsessed! It wasn’t until recently after yet another excellent meal there that I realised I hadn’t blogged about it. To start…
It was like visiting my Grandma’s house. And by all accounts that is not a bad thing! The café is so cosy and homely that I could of easily spent a few more hours there. The café is housed in the old tractor shed that sits elevated above the vineyard with large glass windows so…

Sandalford is the oldest and largest privately owned winery in Western Australia and for that reason I had put off visiting them. I had thoughts of it being over-priced, overly touristy and completely commercialised. I was 100% wrong on all accounts. Having started out in the 1840’s, Sandalford now has 40 hectares in their Swan…
After 15 years of selling off their grapes to commercial wineries, the Tyler’s thought it was about time they started producing wine of their own.
