Last week Megan French hit Perth’s most Instagrammable cafe. This week, Laura Newell typically has the opposite rule: If it’s the hottest thing, it’s the last place you’ll find her. This spot changed her mind.

This might be the first time you’re seeing a blonde bolognese: it uses milk to bring the ingredients together, making it creamy, fragrant and jam-packed with flavour. I guarantee it will become a favourite.
Melanie Lionello
Growing up the para-athlete felt in between worlds, never fully belonging in the disability or able-bodied community. Now, ahead of the Commonwealth Games, she sees it as an opportunity.

This time I’m in South Korea and seeing as I’ve been here for, like, days now, I feel qualified to wax lyrical about the things I’ve seen. Let’s call it cultural exchange.

Four-time gold Logie winner Lisa McCune reflects on motherhood ahead of her anticipated return to Perth in Steel Magnolias.
This pie is one of my absolute favourites to make on a cold winter’s day – and it’s so simple. By scrunching instead of layering the filo pastry, you get an amazing-looking pie without the fuss.
After the next Western Derby, it might be time for West Coast supporters to do something that feels deeply uncomfortable. It might be time to get behind our friends who like to wear purple. Hear me out.
