Beaufort St Merchant - breakfast

I have not been very good with prices of late. I think this was $A16.

Lincoln St Cafe - Salmon Bagel

Not sure how much this cost. Maybe $A7
Simple, but perfectly fresh and high quality ingredients - delicious.

Fish ball noodle soup

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong.
A hot bowl of noodles with sliced fish cake and fish balls, topped with a sprinkle of Tianjin preserved vegetables. Ready within minutes of ordering.

Congo potatoes

These were from a grocer in Mt Lawley (opposite Antonio's, the Italian small good shop) on Beaufort St. I think they were grown in the Atherton Tabletop, which is in Queensland. At $6 per kilo they are not cheap, and being purple on the inside, you can bet that your kids will refuse to eat them. . .

zamia challenge $A18.50

One of the most generous and tasty servings of cholesterol, I have come across in my hunt for the ideal Perth breakfast. . .

Tianjin preserved vegetables

I think this cost less than $A2 (double that, if you count the cost of the bottle I accidently dropped on the floor), from Chinatown in Northbridge. I bought it from shop 88, which is near Viet Hoa, though on the opposite side of the road. It smells strange - cooked cabbage, malt and something vaguely fermented, and looks like cadaver flesh. . .
