Our gastronomy extravagant first began with a breakfast buffet at The Gate Bar & Bistro at Cockburn. This is the second time Serene and Meng How took us there. The first was for a dinner in one of our previous trips to Perth. The unique thing about this restaurant is that a play area is set aside at one corner of the restaurant where kids brought along by young patrons with children can enjoy a good meal with minimum disruption by their kids. Two ladies are on hand to take care of the kids. One is exclusively assigned to do painting on the kids' faces. It's truly an innovative idea!
**********************************
During our stay at the Four Elements Farm Stay in Margaret River at one weekend, Meng How and Serene took us to a highly recommended restaurant in Margaret River, Knee Deep in Margaret River. True to its reputation, we were turned away when we turned up one afternoon without advance reservation, "Sorry, we are fully booked!". Immediately, we made reservation for lunch for the next day to avoid another disappointment.
******************************
Unlike Malaysia, Father's Day is celebrated at the first Sunday of September. For the Father's Day celebration, Serene and Meng How took us to this Quarie Bar & Brasserie, which is situated a short distance from their home in Success suburb.
*********************************
Each time we went to Perth, we never missed eating the Fish & Chip at one of the seafront outlets at Fremantle.
**************************************
We were privileged to be taken by Meng How and Serene to have lunch at a celebrity restaurant owned by Jamie Oliver in Perth, Jamie's Italian. Apparently, he owns two such outlets in Australia, the other is in Sydney. Business is good everyday. Even at around 5-10 min before its opening at 11am, we had to queue behind 5 other customers who turned up earlier than us.
************************************
Beside dining outside, we did have special meals prepared by in-house chefs. At the Farm Stay, we had barbeque by Meng How.

At home, my wife did come up with a number of nice dishes: Ngau Nam Mee (Beef Noodle), braised lamb shank and roast lamb just to name a few!
Chef was busy at work
