Menu Magazine subscription

HELLO and welcome to the 27th edition of Menu Magazine. In this issue we have a huge feature on Western Australia’s burgeoning brewery scene – an outstanding work by our writer Jeremy Sambrooks who spent many months researching the nuances of WA’s beers and brewers’ stories. The Minister for Tourism Hon Paul Papalia opens the magazine with much vigour about WA’s new hotels catering to the influx of tourists visiting our State. We had to check it out for ourselves, with a piece about the outstanding dining options some of these hotels are serving, including Uma Restaurant. Situated in the Pan Pacific Hotel, this is one of Perth’s unique restaurants where the bold Peruvian flavours may blow your mind as much as your tastebuds. Speaking of hotels, in the Technology column Tecsec shares some exciting intel about the innovative ways to check-in remotely; avoiding the rigmarole of hotel check-ins is something I’m sure all travellers are looking forward to. Scott delves into the perceived fallacy of salad intolerance – seriously, it’s an actual thing. Not something that he has personally encountered during his many restaurant reviews or any of the events he’s attended, including the 2019 Perth Airport WA Accommodations Awards for Excellence and the Perth Royal Food Awards. We hope you enjoy reading about innovative dining in the aged care industry and take a journey through New York City’s Lower East Side in search of the best Jewish food. We have also included an update from OneMusic Australia on music royalties and how they’ve thankfully simplified the music licensing laws – instigating a collective sigh from cafes and restaurants all over town. As the warmer weather will soon be upon us, it’s the perfect opportunity to get out into the sunshine and explore the many food and beverage offerings WA dishes up in spades. Bon appètit!
