“If you are ever anywhere remotely near Perth, and if you even remotely like food…the number one thing you have to do is take a tour with Food loose. Oh my gosh! I did one on my first night in Perth and it was the most fun and delicious night ever!”

“It was our first time doing this and OMG were we blown away!!! Their knowledge of not only the local food scene, but also the history and changing ways of Perth, coupled with their passion for international food…made this an enjoyable night. We learnt so much about where to eat and drink in Perth. The food was amazing and we walked away with our stomach’s full…We would highly recommend this to locals and tourists alike.”

“A magic evening! Our guide was not only knowledgeable but was passionate about the numerous eating and drinking attractions in Northbridge. The area has great life and walking from venue to venue up lane ways adorned with street art makes the area so attractive for locals and visitors…An excellent way to see some of the highlights of our great city and to enjoy the hospitality it has to offer.”

We headed to @propeller_northfreo for brunch on Sunday to celebrate a family birthday. It’s been a while since I was there (it’s been one of our faves for a while now), and I’m happy to report that they’ve lost none of their touch during this whole coronageddon debacle. Their middle-eastern influenced menu was on point - we shared the tomato flatbread with a side of black pudding and the mushrooms & halloumi on charred sourdough with a side of bacon - and the coffee was smooth and full-bodied. The birthday boy (aka Dad) and I also indulged in a little pre-midday drinking in the form of a dangerously delicious Bloody Mary each. Fab work, Propeller, you were every bit as amazing as I was hoping you’d be!

More cooking adventures from the socially distant chef: super easy spinach & ricotta lasagna. There’s something comforting about starting the week knowing that you have a whole load of delicious, nutritious food in the fridge waiting for you. That’s why I often like to whip up a large meal on a Sunday afternoon, and this veggie lasagna ticks all the boxes of being easy, cheap and very tasty. It’s also very freezer friendly, so it looks like Casa Del Food Loose is set for work lunches/easy dinners for a while now! #winning #ifyoudon’tlikelasagnatheressomethingwrongwithyou

Yesterday was horrible and rainy - which was bad. To counteract the awful weather, we sat inside at @clancysfremantle and ate a seafood platter, some spicy "Fried Mice" jalapeño poppers, a sizzling brownie and drank some delicious beers - which was good. The @moondogbrewing "Cake Hole" Black Forest Stout was particularly delicious when paired with the decadent chocolate dessert.

Had some friends over last night for burgers. We hit up Melville Heights Meat Supply for the first time and we're really impressed with their burger packs. The @ilgraninobakeryperth potato buns and hi-melt cheese we're as good as other times we've had them, but what really impressed us was the burger mince. It had a great "beefy" flavour and went down a treat when cooked medium/medium rare. We cooked them on the grill and got some nice smokiness as well. At $22 for 6 burgers, it's also great value. We had a couple of patties left over, so we made some bacon & egg cheeseburgers for breakfast (which is what's pictured), which was just the ticket seeing as we were all a bit dusty...

Hit up @fenway.subiaco for lunch with the work crew today and am happy to report that they're back with a vengeance! I had the "Hit & Run" (buttermilk fried chicken, cheese, hit & run hot sauce & blue cheese slaw). Great take on a buffalo wing-style burger. Was a bit messy to eat (lots of blue cheese sauce and hot sauce all over the joint), but was super tasty, held together well and the chicken had lots of great crunch. The onion rings also deserve a special mention too - the whole table was of the opinion that they were some of the best that we'd had in a long time. The batter was light, very crispy and not oily at all. Their beer range lacked some of the cool craft options that they usually stock, but that's to be expected what with all of the covid craziness. I'm sure they'll get some craftier brews on tap as soon as they can, and anyway, a pint of @feralbrewing Hop Hog is always a sold go-to burger accompaniment. Well played Fenway, it's good to have you back in the game!

We're having a cookie bake off competition at work today, so I whipped up a batch of my go-to @donna.hay easy chocolate chip cookies. The trick is to cook them on the day that you want to eat them, and to bake them so that the edges are crispy and chewy while the middle is still soft. A good cookie as much about texture as it is about flavour Speaking of flavour, I prefer a dark chocolate chip for some extra richness and a touch of bitterness to balance out all the sugar. Fingers crossed my simple-but-delicious effort takes home the win!

More cooking adventures from the socially distanct chef: harissa chicken tray bake with cous cous tabouleh and mint yoghurt sauce. This @jamieoliver 5 ingredient tray bake is a great, easy, chuck-it-all-together-and-bung-it-in-the-oven style recipe that's perfect for a weeknight meal. I slightly fancied it up by making some cous cous tabouleh and a mint yoghurt sauce, but you could easily serve it with rice and some natural yoghurt dolloped on top if you wanted to keep it simple.

A couple of weeks ago we hit up @madalenas.bar for our first post-covid meal out with friends. After so long at home it definitely felt a little strange to be dining and drink at a restaurant again, but it was fantastic to spend some time sharing good food and good drinks with great people. As is always the case with Madelana's, everything was totally on point and delicious. Fingers crossed that things continue to go well, that we're all able to enjoy going out again and that our poor hospitality scene is able to recover quickly!

Fancy meals and living the high life when you're travelling is great, but sometimes the best experiences involve spontaneity and life's simple pleasures. When we were in Granada, Spain a couple of years ago, we walked up the hill through the Albaicín (the historic Arab quarter) to watch the sun set over the Alhambra. We'd spotted a position with a great view while exploring the area the day before and resolved to check it out. Before setting off we grabbed a couple of small bottles of cava, a baguette and some goat's cheese for a makeshift picnic. Everything about it was great, from the fascinating buildings, architecture and laneways on the way up to the stunning scenery and our simple-but-delicious picnic spread enjoyed while sat on a stone ledge. If you ever head to Spain, we thoroughly recommend checking out Granada. It has a fantastic blend of history, atmosphere, great food and fantastic tapas bars.

Lately I've really started to nail my homemade "grandma-style" pizzas (thanks to a great dough and sauce recipe from @munchies ). Forget what people might have told you about needing a super fancy over or pizza stone to make a good pie in the comfort of your own home! All you need is baking tray, an oven and a little know-how. 😉 I've also started naming my creations after Brooklyn Nine Nine characters (as Jake Peralta's favourite toppings are sausage, peppers and mushrooms - a combination that I'm also quite partial to). I called this one "The Vulture" (because made it with whatever I could scavenge from the fridge on a Friday evening): spicy salami, pepperoni, olives, sundried tomatoes, olives & anchovies.

More cooking adventures from the socially distant chef: beef, broccoli and black bean noodle stir fry. Quick, simple and satisfying, this @donna.hay recipe is a real winner for an easy meal that packs a lot of flavour. Beef wise I went for sliced rump steak as it has a great mix of flavour and texture when cooked quickly. The black beans also add a great salty kick to the dish. I added in some thick bamboo kneaded egg noodles from @dbigmama - which are my favourite and hands down some of the best noodles I've ever had.

What do you do when your mum calls in desperation and needs you to go to @therejectshop to buy a huge-ass box of @biozetattack laundry powder that's on special? (If she had to choose between her preferred laundry powder brand and her children, I'm not sure who'd come out on top...). Well, you make the most of the situation and stop into @dolce__and__salato for a coffee and a snack. While the coffee was pretty average, the delicious sfogliatelle totally made the trip worthwhile. If you've never had one before, the shell-shaped Italian sweet treat has lots of layers of crispy pastry wrapped around a vanilla custard filling. The perfect morning or afternoon tea bite! Also, mum now has enough of her precious Biozet to last until the end of time, so everyone's a winner...

More cooking adventures from the social distant chef: veggie cottage pie. This fab @jamieoliver recipe is a great comfort food dish perfect for the cooler weather. It's big on flavour and rustic charm while also being pretty healthy and super nutritious. Root veggies and lentils are used instead of meat in the filling, and who doesn't love a big layer of mashed potatoes? I tweaked the recipe by subbing in parsnips and white sweet potato for celeriac, adding some seeded mustard to the mash and topping it all with a some grated romano before popping it in the oven. If you're trying to convince people that you don't need meat to make a meal hearty and delicious, this is the dish for you!

Today was a big day! I ordered a drink while standing at the bar of a pub (the @thelocalhotel in South Freo). It was a pint of @otherside_co Anthem IPA, and it was bloody delicious! We then sat down and I drank my pint while leisurely munching on some chips. It's almost like a once-in-a-hundred-year pandemic never even happened! We really are super lucky here in WA to have been spared the fate of other countries and are able to open up again so soon. We hope that you're all able to enjoy heading out this weekend, and that you spare a thought for all people around the world that aren't able to do so at the moment.

It might not be the sexiest-looking meal around, but a big bowl of homemade minestrone doused in grated parmesan and chilli flakes is oh so good for the soul. Bonus points if you have some home baked sourdough toast on hand for dippin' purposes.

A bit hit of comforting carbohydrates, fat and salt. A whack of MSG-fuelled umami with a dash of spice. A delicious meal whipped up in seconds - what’s not to love about instant noodles? My favourite noodles are @nongshim_australia (from Korea) - specifically their Shin Ramyun and Chapagetti varieties. I tend to pimp them up by adding some frozen peas and some Lao Gan Ma (for the Chapagetti only - the Shin Ramyun are insanely spicy on their own), poaching an egg or two in the soup and topping it with some fried shallots and garlic. Definitely not the healthiest meal, but when it comes to maximum satisfaction with minimal expense or effort, they’re pretty damn hard to beat! Do you have a favourite brand of instant noodles?

A real brunch with real coffee from real cups and real food from real chefs eaten while sitting on real chairs and being served by really lovely people at @duckduckbrucefreo. On the weekend my fabulous wife took me out for a mystery brunch date. I was more than happy to learn that we were booked in for bunch at @duckduckbrucefreo, as they do some of the best breakfast food in all of Freo (if not the whole city). We shared the “Tower of Power” (a fried chicken breaky burger) and the “We’re Going To Need A Bigger Boat” (essentially a full English fry up). Both were delightful, as was being able to enjoy a nice meal in a cafe once again.

There was a family birthday celebration today, so the Food Loose husband & wife cooking team sprang into action to whip up some tasty treats for lunch. I knocked up an olive, rosemary & sundried tomato focaccia (using an @adamliaw recipe for the dough) to accompany the antipasti platter. My amazing wife did a @jamieoliver Comfort Food Hummingbird Cake (which we had for dessert with with a cuppa). Great day & a great lunch with great people. Happy birthday @linda_fari !
