It was a spur of the moment decision to visit Stewart’s at Brookleigh in Upper Swan, however I could not think of a more lovelier way to spend my Wednesday night. The property straddles the Swan River and it’s made up of accommodation, a health & day spa, an equestrian centre and of course Stuart’s…
There is a classy cool elegance about Black Swan Winery. Two of my favourite things about this Swan Valley property came about before I even stepped foot inside! First there was the ‘Black Swan shuttle service bus’ parked out front which shows this spot likes to have a bit of fun, yet in a responsible…
This is one of those places that makes it to my ‘Must Visit’ list of Swan Valley pit stops… Olive oils, spice rubs, jams, sauces and meal-packs to create at home – Providore is your one-stop-gourmet-shop in the Swan Valley. But that’s not all folks; they also have the Coward & Black wine range (made…
Sticky date pudding, butterscotch sauce, brandy snap and rum and raisin ice cream – does life get better than this?! I admit it, I absolutely love food photos – taking them and spending hours scrolling through them. So when I saw photos on the Riverbank Estate Facebook page of their new winter menu, well I…
One of the most unique dining experiences I have come across in Perth… When I saw an ad on Facebook for a free drink with any pizza ordered on Thursday nights at Chapel Farm in the Swan Valley I simply couldn’t say no. Located in the Middle Swan, not far from Midland central I was truly…
A glass of bubbles with brekkie for only $5!! I’m starting to think Autumn may be one of my favourite times of year to visit the Swan Valley. The vines are gorgeous shades of yellows, reds and oranges and the days are still sitting around 20 degrees. Not too cold or too hot. So when…
Our own mini-degustation… I have been very selfish, I have been putting off writing this post for sometime because I have perhaps stumbled across the Swan Valley’s best-kept secret. Fillaudeau’s Café Restaurant is located at the Pinelli Estate Vineyard in the Swan Valley. Manu, the French Chef behind the amazing food and his wife Jasmin…
Waters Edge Estate in the Swan Valley closing down 30th June 2013.. I was planning on writing a series of posts aimed at public transport goers keen to experience the Swan Valley. Butttttt… The first one I choose to go to, and the closest winery within walking distance from Guildford train station (2.5kms) is closing…
It’s just a pity they don’t serve up wine… It’s safe to say Alfred’s Kitchen is famous in Perth. Having been serving up burgers at their roadside hamburger bar since 1946, you can’t miss the bright neon Alfred’s sign and blazing log fire out the front. Alfred’s sits in the heart of Guildford, a mere…
