Cows, Pigs and More

Home cooking is the norm in Perth, unlike Singapore, where eating out is common, and cheaper for a young couple.  Trips to Woolworths and Coles take up most of our time spent outside the home and I've found it is worth while getting to know the local grocers better.

We are currently on the hunt for cheaper meat and are sourcing for wholesale butcheries around Perth because, well, we love our meat, and it is getting expensive to keep buying from the big supermarkets.
