PERTH: Wildflower @ Como


Went for my first work related trip interstate to Perth! And I have always believed that when you are holidaying *cough*, you have to stay well and eat the best.

Managed to snag a table for 1 at Wildflower. Named 2017 #1 Restaurant in WA and #65 in Australia, it's housed in this really pretty ( and expensive ) hotel.

I opted for their 5 course seasonal tasting menu ($145 per pax) because seriously if you're a table for 1, its stupid to order a la carte.
It was really busy for a week day I thought. And I looked around, I was the only table for 1. And I hate it, absolutely hated it when the staff kept coming by me to ask if the food was okay. I guess it's a nice gesture, maybe they did that so that at least I was able to interact with humans during my whole dinner experience lol. But yes, I guess I would prefer if I was left alone, in the comfort of my iphone haha.
Oh, not to mention, there was this dude from the table just across me who kept looking over and staring at me, I felt so uncomfortable, I was so freaked out.

Started the night of with some cocktail, yes!

I seriously thought my night was going to shit because this first dish was extremely terrible. It sent the couple next to me choking/coughing for a good 2 minutes. 
Terrifying start.

BEST BREAD + BUTTER. 

Blue swimmer crab, avocado, preserved kohlrabi, sea blight, macadamia, finger lime
THIS WAS SO GOOD

BIG PRAWNS my my.

Berkshire pork, sweet white onion, sour quandong and mustard 

Beef


Chocolate

Overall, a good meal apart from the first course. However, hmm, #1 restaurant in WA, really? I don't know.
