Rob Broadfield reveals his best restaurants in Perth and the SW
Popular food critic Rob Broadfield will launch a new food website, The Man Who Ate The World, in coming days ahead of a month-long trip to Italy.
The self-proclaimed “eater at large” joined Liam Bartlett on 6PR Mornings to discuss cooking the perfect piece of meat for a steak sandwich, and the soaring price of dining out across Perth.
“At the end of the day, if you don’t want to spend $300 for a meal for two, and that is getting up there, I think certain places aren’t for you,” he told Bartlett.
