Talking...Hi Tim, thanks very much for your comment. Talking about good coffee is a dangerous affair, as everyone seems to have violently different opinions on what constitutes good coffee and where to get it. Anyway, here goes. In highgate and its surrounds, we would tend to visit the following:<br /><br />1. Beaufort Street Merchant - although we've had poor long macs on some occassions<br /><br />2. Lincoln Street Cafe on Lincoln Street<br /><br />3. West End Deli on Carr Street West Perth - always excellent coffee, sometimes peculiar service<br /><br />4. Milkd on Angove Street North Perth - never had a bad coffee<br /><br />5. Soto on Beaufort Street - although again, hit and miss<br /><br />If you wanted to go further afield, there are fantastic coffees to be had at Cafe Cafe (there's one on Hay Street in the West end of the city, and another in Subi Centro), and beautiful coffee in gorgeous surrounds at Boucla, at the top of Rokeby Road in Subi.<br /><br />Good luck and enjoy your trip. While you're in the area, make sure you squeeze in a visit to the upstairs bar at the Flying Scotsman.Beaufort Street Bloggershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11446130364850095639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391523647208669081.post-12857304170453797822009-07-02T14:52:24.387+08:002009-07-02T14:52:24.387+08:00... that was me from the last post... that was me from the last postTim Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351014191930352181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391523647208669081.post-15802139402046846512009-07-02T14:48:50.554+08:002009-07-02T14:48:50.554+08:00I went to Veritas a couple of years ago when in Pe...I went to Veritas a couple of years ago when in Perth and was far from impressed with the whole feel of the place.<br /><br />Speaking of being in Perth, I will be there with my family staying in Highgate and would like to know who does the best coffee on Beaufort street; we are spoilt here in Melbourne for good coffee and can never seem to finf anything decent in Perth.Anonymoushttp://cookedandbottledinbrunswick.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391523647208669081.post-25563961694126347132009-06-05T11:01:24.878+08:002009-06-05T11:01:24.878+08:00While in Nanjing last week, a Chineser told me tha...While in Nanjing last week, a Chineser told me that KFC tastes much better in China than perth, so there may be a detectable difference between Red Roosters in Perth and rotto.The Worst of Perthhttp://perthworst.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391523647208669081.post-18237148186705253852009-06-05T10:17:38.465+08:002009-06-05T10:17:38.465+08:00Sorry Lazy Aussie, we're just really shit abou...Sorry Lazy Aussie, we're just really shit about bringing along cameras.

But, as we said, we don't actually mind a bit of attention, and it shows the restaurant it passionate about what it does.

It was all much improved this time around though.<br /><br />The Beer Judges - other than those which are disqualified for not being open for dinner on Thursday night (eg Exomod), we will certainly do them all. We make no claim about what order we will do them in though.
