This review is for Belmont Tavern, Cloverdale WA

verified email - 07 Feb 2015

This is situated in the corner, adjacent to a liquor store; lots of parking as it is within the Belmont Forum property. The Resto has indoor/outdoor dining setup, good selection of food. I have tried their Pad Thai, which was not bad, but wasn't that great too. The portion though was enormous! Staff are attentive, and service is quick and efficient.

Great value for money. Hotel has Scandinavian interior design - minimalist, neat, organised. The standard room is quite large too. No need to go out of the hotel to dine as they also have a restaurant with great food selections.

Approximate cost: $250

My favourite little honey spot! Lots and lots of honey that come from in different jar sizes. Free honey tasting. Love their honey ice cream, and you can also dine in for a light tea! Love their scones too.

Lovely location, along the Southbank. We ordered the Wagyu beef and the Pork Belly - delish even though the service size is a bit tiny. Great selection of wine. Dessert? Tried their chocolate fondant, 'twas the best!

This review is for The Rialto, Melbourne VIC

A heritage building that is turned into a contemporary 5-star hotel located along Collins Street. The hotel reception is not grand compare to most 5-star hotels. In fact, it's quite hidden, almost unnoticeable. The deluxe king room is only 32sq.m. but beautifully decorated. Great service, but it being advertised as a 5-star hotel, I would expect the same level of service.

Approximate cost: $350

This review is for The Coffee Club, Perth WA

Came here last week to have takeaway coffee. Great location right at the CBD, indoor/outdoor dining. Quick service, friendly staff. They have lots to choose from in their menu, so I'd definitely come back and dine in next time.

This review is for Botanica Bar & Bistro, Innaloo WA

Love, love, lot this place. It really loved up to its name with pillar of roses decorating not only the entrance of the restaurant but also the whole compound. It has options for indoor & outdoor dining, with a bar section too. Love the pit fish and chips, and also their spring rolls! Generous servings!

This review is for C Restaurant, Perth WA

verified email - 22 Jan 2015

Being the only revolving restaurant in Perth and showcasing great views of the cityscapes, C Restaurant is one of its kind. Food is really good, but pricey (which is expected as you pay for the view). I was disappointed however as regards the neatness of their female restroom. It seems as if they have not paid much attention on maintaining the cleanliness especially during the peak hours. To see used tissues on the floor and untidy countertops is last thing you would expect from a Class A restaurant especially if you paid high to get there!

Approximate cost: $40

This review is for Catalano's Cafe, Victoria Park WA

Great pizza and pasta. I usually order their spaghetti carbonara, so creamy and full of goodies. The restaurant is always packed and the noise is quite loud! So when we come here, we usually just order a take away as dining in is not really the best with this kind of atmosphere.

Approximate cost: $18

This review is for Pancakes At Carillon, Perth WA

verified email - 22 Jan 2015

There's not a lot of Pancake cafes in Perth, and this is just one of the few - and perhaps the oldest in Perth too? The restaurant interior is average. Food selection is good - with starters, grills, salads, crepes, and of course, pancakes! I come here for their pancakes, the blueberry heaven is my ultimate favourite. Ltheyre ligh and fluffy and served generously! The only downside about the Pancake at Carillon is the waiting time as it's always full and kitchen staff couldn't seem to cope with the number of orders.

Approximate cost: $15
