Brunch, Lunch, Munch: Mary Street Bakery, Ribs and Burgers, La Cholita

BRUNCH: Mary Street Bakery

The Mary Street Bakery was a little confusing, we couldn’t work out if there was table service or if you ordered at the counter. Eventually a waiter took our coffee order, but then promptly forgot it.

We ordered some food, that was amazing, Their spin on American styled chicken and pancakes was super tasty. How you create a pancake that thick is a mystery. The baked eggs with chickpeas was incredibly filling and great value for money.

LUNCH: Ribs & Burgers

Sometimes everything you need to know about a restaurant is right there in the name. At Ribs & Burgers you can expect the most varied selection of burger combinations in a supersaturated gourmet burger market and a range of ribs so fabulous you’ll think that the chef has raided the waste bin outside Cher’s plastic surgery. To Die For.

Located at Railway Lane in the CBD.

MUNCH: La Cholita

La Cholita may serve up Perth’s tiniest tacos but at six bucks a pop they are beyond value for money.

We sampled the full range of their meat and vegetarian options and all were pretty amazing; but the pulled pork and pineapple taco is a game changer. Teamed with a classic Margarita pulled from the tequila menu boasting over 100 brands that will kick your ass in the good way, it’s a winning combination.

It also doesn’t hurt that the staff seem to be universally hot. Between myself and my three other dining companions we didn’t even have to fight over who we would go “off menu” for. Add to that flattering lighting and prime William St people watching vistas and La Cholita delivers on all fronts

La Cholita is at 57 Aberdeen St, Northbridge.
