Panadera Las Nazarenas
Josefa Maraminillo, an Afro-Peruvian slave from the Cañete Valley, known as Doña Pepa, suffered badly from paralysis and ventured to Lima to pray to El Señor de los Milagros, an image of Christ, and asked him to cure her. Soon after, she felt better and no longer suffered pains in her arms and legs. In a dream, saints appeared to her and gave her the recipe so she could give back. The next day, she walked through the crowds at Las Nazarenas and began to hand out this layered anise-flavored nougat drizzled with chancaca syrup and topped with sprinkles and candy. Every October thereafter, she would come to Lima and do the same, a tradition that has continued at this bakery near the church.

At Frishman Sabich, the smell of frying eggplant fills the street’s corner, appealing to hordes of fans hungry for its Israeli sandwich.

Super Falafel

Hashomer 1
Shashouska, a dish of eggs poached in a sauce of tomatoes, chili peppers and onions, is believed to have a Tunisian origin. At Hashomer 1, shashouska goes to the next level with a variety of flavors, including tomatoes and coriander, black-eyed peas and pickled lemon, aubergine and cheese and the favored shashouska: hummus, spinach and lemon mixed with perfectly cooked eggs, which give each bite a blast of tastes.

The Modern Eatery
When it comes to good sushi, The Modern Eatery does it well. With beautifully constructed plates of freshly made sushi on order, their shining star on the menu is their salmon aburi sushi, which is slightly fatty, smokey from being torched and has that umami rich sauce that all good aburi sushis use. Price-wise, it's not the cheapest Japanese in town, but if you're in the port city of Fremantle exploring, it is definitely worth a visit and an indulgence in some tasty food.

Rockpool Bar & Grill Perth
The brainchild of famed chef Neil Perry, Rockpool is a place for special occasions and romantic nights. From the walk down the barely lit entry way with windows that see into the meat aging cellars, to the intimate tables and immaculate service, this is a place that treats its guests like royalty. Their steaks are pricey, but the quality is incredible, and for those who aren't fans of beef, they deliver on some outstandingly fresh seafood, creative spins on traditional pasta dishes and more. But definitely save room for dessert - particularly the cloudlike marshmallows, the irresistible salted caramels, the generous crème caramel and, of course, the most incredible passionfruit pavlova ever. Stacked high, it is lighter than a cloud!

Pixel Coffee Brewers
Pixel Coffee is a little hole-in-the-wall café in Leederville that has attracted a loyal fan following in a short amount of time. With hot breakfasts, fresh salads and incredible layered cakes, it is no wonder it has become so popular amongst Perthites. For those who are coffee inclined, it's rumored to have the best in the city. Breakfast lovers can pair a cup to pair with this dish of mushrooms, kale, poached egg and polenta.

Lucky Chan's Laundry & Noodlebar
Perth's first crowd funded restaurant boasts late-night Asian eats with a Western twist. Though they like to pride themselves on their ramen, the real star of the lineup are the baos - especially the slow-cooked lamb shoulder with carrot and orange relish and coriander, and the buttermilk-fried ramen chicken with spicy mayo. It's fun, playful and, while not necessarily authentic, a delicious snack to eat before or after a big night out.
