Viaje Mount Lawley has some great new sandwiches on the menu! This one is curried egg and Branston pickle on roasted ciabatta with a chive & fennel salsa. It's all made in-house and the strong flavours are well balanced. This is no slapped-together sandwich. @viajecoffee.ml

There's a definite English theme and I'll be back for the coronation chicken 👑🐔 With a side of Perth's best hash browns, of course...

Late last year I had the privilege of stepping into the kitchen of Peruvian restaurant UMA to watch Executive Chef Alejandro Saravia prepare a dish he created using Leeuwin Coast akoya oysters.

This dish matches the akoya with a complex XO sauce, stir-fried in a hot wok to open up the akoya’s flavour and bring out the earthiness of the XO. It's garnished with fresh chilli and served on a nest of noodles to add texture.

The new-look Karrinyup has brought some great restaurants including Laksarama, the creation of Brendom Sim (owner of top CBD venues Bar Lafayette and W. Churchill). It’s a love letter to his Malaysian heritage, with a short menu of two laksas and three side dishes – crunchy fried prawns, crispy fried tofu and Malaysian fried chicken. Whatever you order - and chances are you'll want all of it - you won't be disappointed.

Open Wednesday to Sunday from 11am, it's a must-visit for laksa lovers 🍜 @laksarama

Today was my second visit to Tuart Hill's Local Bird in a week, and if you know me then you'll know that's a rare occurrence.

The smashed patty burgers are the star, seasoning is well under control unlike many too-salty examples. Simplicity is the key and this double patty with American cheese, ketchup, mustard & pickles is pretty much cheeseburger perfection 🍔🏆

It's been a while since I visited Besk, the WA Good Food Guide's #3 casual dining venue, so popped in today for lunch. The venue was very busy but food service was quick. @beskbar @beskbottleshop

Dishes pictured here:
- baby corn with fermented chilli, smoked almond and curry leaf
- steak tartare with egg yolk, pickled peppers and dripping toast
- gnocchi with vine tomatoes, mushrooms, brown butter, sage & pecorino
- La Delizia Latticini stracciatella with capocollo, mango, piquillo vinaigrette, basil & sourdough

The dishes were all well made and presented, but the menu faces stiff competition from many of our new bars. The highlights here were the corn and steak tartare.

I had heard these were coming and found them in Woolies today. Presumably leaping on the trend of mixing maltesers with your popcorn, these are the next best (worst?) thing.

As you can see from the label, the flavouring is in the chocolate; to me I can only taste melted butter. No sense of popcorn at all.

I get where they're coming from but I don't like it. Other family members did, so I'll call it a draw. I won't be going back, though.

Here we have two curious "Layers" creations from Cadbury, and it's reasonable to assume there are more varieties to come. The thing is, I can't work out what they actually are, or why they exist.

Let's start with the price. $3 each if you can't find them on special (saw them half price at Coles Express today). At 35 grams each that's close to $100 a kilo. Most of the time you can buy the original bars somewhere for $1.

Swipe for the cross sections. They're both very nice, reminiscent of the original but not quite. I actually preferred the Cherry Ripe thanks to the mysterious goo in the bottom (and I don't like Cherry Ripe).

By all means try them, but don't think about the cost. I suspect there's more to this story...

Yes, I know Christmas has just left us but Caramilk seems ridiculously popular so I thought I'd try these out.

There's not much hot-cross-bun about them, they're just a sweet bun with chocolate. Toasted and covered with butter they're enjoyable but very sweet, which is to be expected. They're excellent quality, and actually hard to fault. They'd probably make a great French toast...

They only come in a pack of 4 so you might need more than one when feeding the family. Get them while they last (presumably until Easter). Available from @woolworths_au

It's been a busy time for Smith's with many limited edition flavours, but this one has been around a few times before. It's a great effort and I'm always surprised that it doesn't stick around @smithschips_aus

It's like a lighter, sweeter version of barbecue and delivers what it says on the bag. If you haven't tried these before, they're definitely worth throwing in your basket.

Found these Cadbury Christmas Mints in Woolworths while looking for post-Xmas bargains. I somehow missed them earlier, and was more than happy to try them for $2 for a bag of 14 @cadburyaust @woolworths_au

There's no great surprise here - dark chocolate, peppermint creme and crunchy mint pieces - but you'll enjoy them if you like the sound of that in a Quality Street size piece. Now where are the orange ones? 😉

Christmas may be a time for good food, but it's also time to rummage through the freezer for long lost snacks. Today's lunch was some forgotten ALDI samosas and I'm pleased to report a pleasant surprise @aldiaustralia

For a very reasonable $4.99, you get six substantial potato & pea samosas and two chutneys. They're filling, flavoursome (spicy enough) and you can see whole spices inside. The pastry is more short than flaky but you can't have everything. For the price, they're very hard to fault.

I wasn't a fan of the mint chutney, but the sweet tamarind-ish one was pleasant and unlike anything else in my pantry.

The first Shelf Life guest report from Perth vegetarian blogger @chubby_vegetarian: Oak special edition gingerbread flavoured milk.

It tastes just as you’d expect, like a gingerbread man blended with milk. It's delicious and tastes like Christmas. It's very sweet but that’s to be expected from something like this. Much better than the other recent milk efforts. Find it in Coles.

Not that I need an excuse to buy snacks, but these caught my eye in Woolies for a Christmas treat. Unfortunately they didn't make it that far 😬 At a very reasonable $4 for a tightly packed 250g bag these are a great buy.

Not quite as sticky as I remember Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs, these have just the right amount of sweetness to be morish but not sickly. Not sure about "pops of joy" but at least they're not cheese flavoured. @woolworths_au

Have you tried Lilt? It's my favourite soft drink, partially because it takes me back to my English childhood but also because I'm a fan of anything citrus / tropical - "totally tropical" in this case 😜

You can usually find it in the UK section of Coles and Woolies, and it's great with gin. Apparently. Like a lot of UK drinks the sweetener is part sugar, part artificial so it's low in carbs. Give it a try 👍

Picked these up from ALDI recently, having high-ish hopes as European flavours are so much better than ours. In saying that, I found camembert & chilli jam flavour a little hard to imagine @aldiaustralia

Unfortunately, these tasted like a generic chilli-like crisp without any real charm. No idea what advantage "slow cooked" has, either. I've had worse, but I was rather disappointed 😔

Stagg Chilli is one of those emergency lunches / dinners that I always keep in the pantry. Add some rice, sour cream and a bit of cheese and it's a perfectly decent meal (as canned things go) @staggchiliaus

I usually get the "Dynamite Hot" variety, there's also classic / vege / chicken but I find them a little dull. So I was excited to find this new "Slow Burn" pork variety in Coles.

Heat-wise it's a bit smoother than the Dynamite, but what I like the most is the pork sausage-like chunks. I wasn't sure at first, but by the time I finished I was convinced. Feels more refined all round. There's already another tin in the pantry.

So many posts to catch up on! Let's start with these fruity soft drinks from Mildura, that are pretty much as you would expect - sparkling versions of their Tropical and Orange & Passionfruit juice varieties.

Unfortunately there's not much to get excited about. I was hoping for something low in sugar and low-carbonated (like a lot of the UK drinks, e.g. Lilt) but these were high in both.

By no means bad, just feels like a wasted opportunity to offer something different.

The milk madness continues with this latest Dare "Toffee Nut Latte" iced coffee creation, and I'm not afraid to admit I was a little scared after the Peanut Butter one 🤢 @dareicedcoffee

Thankfully this is better, although I don't get much coffee or nuts. It reminds me of a milkshake made with cheap caramel syrup, like I was used to as a kid. It's actually quite refreshing, and perfectly drinkable.

Just when I was complaining about the lack of citrus yoghurts (orange in particular), along comes Chobani with this blood orange variety that I found in ALDI @chobaniau

The Greek yoghurt itself is quite thick, and the orange is at the bottom so you can mix it in. I would have liked the yoghurt a little looser and the orange a little stronger, but that's just a personal preference.

My prayers have been answered, so there's no complaints here 👍☺️
