I’m a freelance food writer with special interest in cultural and ethnic cuisines. I have been published in Feast, a national monthly food magazine associated with SBS and Agenda City Perth. Please feel free to contact me to discuss writing opportunities.
AGENDA CITY, October 2012: Ristretto Coffee Wall and Northbridge Roastery
FEAST, October 2012: Joe de Silva : Bhooni
A profile of Joe, who shares his Goan and Anglo Indian heritage through his favourite dish: bhooni. I tried the recipe and it was delicious – comfort food at its best.
AGENDA CITY, September 2012: The Perth Food Engineers share their top 5 hot date spots
AGENDA CITY, September 2012: Let them eat bread! Yoke’s top 5 eats
AGENDA CITY, September 2012: Took Be Gi
FEAST, September 2012: Feast Food Awards
I was lucky enough to be the Perth judge for the inaugural Feast Food Awards. Ten categories. 1 winners and 2 runners-up in each, it was a blast. Buy the September issue now to see Perth’s best eats.
AGENDA CITY, August 2012: Canton Bay, Perth
AGENDA CITY, August 2012: Core Cider, Pickering Brook
AGENDA CITY, July 2012: Stirling Farmers’ Market, Stirling
AGENDA CITY, July 2012: Smoult’s Continental Deli, Maylands
AGENDA CITY, July 2012: Neighbourhood Pizza, Mount Hawthorn
FEAST, June 2012: Elby Grabe: Biltong
A profile of Elby, who kindly made a huge batch of biltong for the shots! They are seriously addictive. (Thanks Elby!)
FEAST, May 2012: The Prophet
Run by father and son duo, Jihad and Christian, The Prophet is indeed a special place in East Vic Park. What you eat on the menu are Jihad’s special dishes – his mum’s omelette, his raw lamb kibbeh nayeh – all passed down to his son Christian, who inexplicably improves on his father’s work. One of my favourite restaurants in Perth.
FEAST, March 2012: Kakulas Sister, Perth
One of my favourite stores in all of Perth – Kakulas Sister in Fremantle. There’s a Kakulas Sister in Nollamara too.
FEAST, January 2012: Myaree & Winthrop, Perth
If there ever was a delegated Malaysian district in Perth it would by Winthrop! All the nationalities (and food) that represent Malaysia – Baba Nyonya, Chinese, Indian and Malay – are in these two suburbs.
FEAST, November 2011: Wabi Sabi
A wonderful Japanese retreat just metres away from the Kalamunda township, Adele and Gino offer Japanese hospitality within their ryokan and expertly manicured gardens. As part of a ryokan stay, a kaiseki meal – a multi course personalised meal – is cooked by Gino. This is wear you come for the complete Japanese experience without leaving Perth. Amazing stuff.
FEAST, September 2011: Koreatown, Perth
This ’In the Neighbourhood’ article was published in the first edition of SBS Feast. On the eastern fringe of Perth’s CBD shopping district, I explore the various Korean shops, eateries and meet the owners and hear their stories. An excerpt of the article can also be found here. Another Perth based story was printed in the first issue, see Wild Sourdough below.
FEAST, September 2011: Wild Sourdough
Yoke’s intimate knowledge of sourdough fermentation goes beyond bread and into diet, passion, health and general good living. I went along for the beginner sourdough which I highly recommend to anybody interested in baking bread. That’s me petting Yoke’s flour eating jack russell terrier, in my Henry the 8th apron bought from the Tower of London gift shop. :)
SUNDAY TIMES STM magazine for Eat Drink Perth 2011
My first ever mention in the world of published media. :)
