The Brown Spoon


The Brown Spoon is a small cafe located in Victoria Park in Perth. Upon entering, you instantly feel the cosy atmosphere the cafe has to offer, with its beautiful dry flower decorations and brown and white colour theme. This cafe is known for its sweet desserts such as pancakes, honey bread, croffles, and their cakes. I decided to get the strawberry croffle (a pancake and waffle together) with an iced coffee, along with their s'mores dip with crackers. 

I have to rate the croffle itself a good 8 out of 10. The strawberry sauce was not overly sweet, so it was genuinely enjoyable with the strawberry pieces as well. The croffle was very soft and easy to eat and mixed with ice cream, gave it a rich creamy taste. The presentation of the croffle was amazing with the ice cream in the middle, strawberry pieces around the edges topped with a strawberry sauce. The s'mores dip came with unlimited slightly salted crackers. I have to give this a 6 out of 10. For my personal liking, it was extremely sweet, and I could only finish so much along with the croffle. The salty crackers helped balance out the sweetness from the marshmallow and chocolate that was underneath, however, after about 5 crackers it became too sweet to continue. 

The iced coffee was also a 6 out of 10. Usually iced coffee are either sweet or not depending on the store. The iced coffee from here was slightly sweet. It was quite large, came with ice and had a beautiful nude and white ombre before I mixed the drink. Not much to say about the drink, however, I think it could be better paired with ice cream. 

The overall experience was very serene. The atmosphere was warm and cosy, a very good place to grab something sweet and to catch up with a friend. The staff was very friendly and quick with service. I would definitely recommend this place, especially during winter!

Kumo is a popular pancake restaurant located in Northbridge, Perth. There are a variety of flavours to choose from pancake wise such as pandan, strawberry, mango, chocolate, and a variety of drink flavours such as matcha, chai, lychee, and more. It is best to go to this place in the evening as it gets very packed at night! Luckily there was no line when I went. The scenery of the restaurant was minimalistic with a white and green colour scheme. There were fake green leaves as decorations on the wall with a big LED sign saying 'Kumo' lit up. They also accompany for single dining! I decided to get the chocolate cloud pancakes with their strawberry kisses drink. I would rate the pancakes an honest 4 out of 10. It slightly disappointed me in comparison to the hype it got online. I thought the pancakes were TOO fluffy to the point where it was too light as if you weren't actually eating something. There was a light creamy taste but not as much as I would have liked. The strawber...

Milky Lane is a hamburger restaurant, popular for its street aesthetic. It has paintings of famous rappers on the wall including Snoop Dogg, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, and Kanye West. There is a noticeable colour theme of neon purple, blue, and black along with white graffiti designs. There are inside and outside seating areas, but no matter where you sit you can definitely hear the pop music that is very loud. This restaurant has a variety of burgers named after popular rappers, small sides, and a few desserts along with numerous drinks such as cocktails, mock-tails, milkshakes and more.  I decided to focus on the desserts at this place. I got the caramilk and biscoff cookie dough skillet. The presentation of this dessert was very appealing with the ice cream, biscoff cookie bits, bisoff cookie, and sweet sauce topping. I give this dessert a 9 out of 10. It was very good, and you can control how sweet it is because the biscoff sauce came in a small cup so you can pour as much as you wa...
