This news may be of interest to people living in Perth who appreciate a good bakery - the Miami Bakehouse has opened a Perth outlet!

The original Miami Bakehouse lives on the southern edge of Mandurah, and for years has been hugely popular as an eating stop for Perth people (including me) driving to or from the south-west. Its popular because its bakery products are excellent - no other WA bakery has won more awards. They have a website but at the time of writing it is being revamped.

Yesterday I had the great pleasure (a culinary serendipity) of accidentally finding their new outlet on Canning Hwy, Melville (south side of road, just west of Stock Rd). Being a fan of good bakeries I stopped and conducted some product evaluations, and can testify to the excellence of their cajun chicken pies, turkish bread and vanilla slices. Like the Mandurah store, the new one is a bakery/cafe serving good coffee with both indoor and outdoor seating. A souvenir I bought at their Mandurah shop has the slogan “A taste worth driving for” - it is a great taste, but now the people of Perth don’t have to drive so far for it.
