Perth, Australia

 

Coco's
Perth, Australia

 

It may be easier to get there than going over the rainbow but Perth Australia is very much like OZ in that it is a very beautiful city thousands of miles removed from anything else. Coco's restaurant uses that beautiful vista of Perth as an adornment for the restaurant. Coco's sits in south Perth across the huge width of the Swan river to look upon downtown Perth and its balanced mix of colonial architecture and gleaming high rise office buildings. Diners have the option to sit outside on the large veranda or to be seated inside the restaurant.

The story is not about the view alone. The venue draws a large good looking clientele nightly because of the menu and the skill with which it is executed. The menu is a balance of meat and seafood. On my last visit I chose a large strip steak which was served rare as ordered but because of the hot plate and prompt service stayed hot through the meal. It was one of the best steaks I've had. My companion that evening had beef also with similar comments of the preparation and the quality of the beef. The Shiraz/ Cabernet Sauvignon blend by Australia's Penfolds winery was a nice match to the meat.
