Food and Drink

Pickleball and padel ball are Perth's biggest wellness obsessions since pilates and strawberry matcha lattes. We're calling it, this is going to be the biggest sporting trend of the summer. 

When it comes to dining on Rottnest Island/Wadjemup, good food is as much a part of the experience as the turquoise water and quokka selfies.

You don’t need to speak French to enjoy this coffee. If you’ve spotted a Mont Blanc on a Perth café menu lately and wondered whether you’re ordering a mountain, a dessert, or a coffee – the answer is: delightfully, a bit of all three. Inspired by the classic French chestnut dessert named after the Alps landmark itself, a Mont Blanc is a layered, creamy, indulgent drink that’s as pretty as it is sippable. Think cold brew or espresso as your base, topped with clouds of whipped cream (sometimes mascarpone or coconut cream), topped with citrus zest, cocoa, or nutty notes. It’s rich yet refreshing, decadent yet balanced and oh-so-Instagrammable.
