moting whole food in Perth for the last two decades or so.

Seek hands-on inspiration with a cooking class at Wildwood Valley near Yallingup or Foragers Field Kitchen
near Pemberton.
The best value can usually be found at the top end, and then budget spots like farmers
markets and Northbridge's Asian eateries.
