Miss Kitty's Saloon, Inglewood

For those that know me, you will agree that I’m not a calm or quiet person. Nor do I tend to run out of things to say. With some people I can sense this personality trait of mine can be a little over bearing yet with others it creates a spark for even more animated conversation.  One of my dear blogging friends Amanda from Chew Town shares a similar passion for words and during one of her return trips to Perth we caught up for some brunch and a “talk-off”. We cannot agree between us who can talk more and happily settled for a tie after this round. She is always keen to try new places around Perth having left our sunny city some years ago so after throwing a few options around we agreed on Miss Kitty’s Saloon in Inglewood.  I mean, anything that refers to felines in its business name has to be good!

Miss Kitty’s is a quirky new-ish venue on Beaufort Street in Inglewood. Their menu is inspired by Canadian and American cuisines and they shamelessly have a pig’s head suspended in one of their fridges behind the bar.  Our delightful waitress proudly informed us they buy the “whole pig” and pretty much use all of it in their dishes.  The pig’s head specifically features on their evening menu in the form of Pig’s head nuggets!

There are a number of gluten free options and the chef seemed happy to fiddle around with some options to accommodate me.  Our stand-out dish for the day was undoubtedly the char-grilled tamarind pork ribs.  I’m not normally a big pork fan, nor do I often order ribs, I often find that they are too fatty and grisly for my liking. Additionally getting all the meat fibres stuck between my teeth drives me mad.

After eating Miss Kitty’s Saloon ribs, I am proud to say I am a converted rib fan.  The meat pulled off the bones in one clean bite and the mapley after taste was enough to make me weak at the knees.  Our more heart conscious choice of the fennel salad balanced the syrupy sweet ribs with some acidity and freshness. Surely all that summer on a plate negated the sugar and fat in the ribs?

Although I had already had breakfast, I couldn’t resist ordering a serve of their devilled eggs.  The cute presentation of these little beauties was enough to make me giggle. The seasoned whole boiled egg gave me my much needed egg porn of the day and if I had showed better self-control and not already eaten earlier that morning I would have been happy to do another round of eggs and ribs.

Hello sunshine!

At this point in time our entertaining waitress had caught eye of my conspicuous SLR camera and shimmied back to our table for a laugh and a chat. She was such a crack up, even to herself, and she confessed that she was obsessed with reading Miss Kitty’s Saloon reviews on Urbanspoon to see what things people said about her and her fellow colleagues.  It turns out that she is also gluten intolerant and we shared stories of our experiences eating out.  After finding out there were no gluten free desserts on offer she offered to us a de-constructed gluten free version of their Banoffee pie.  Finding her wide eyed energy and joy hard to resist we found room in our bellies and ordered dessert to share.

What came out was the most hilarious Banoffee pie I have ever seen; thick syrupy banoffee pie contents sans casing filled the plate and was decorated with chocolate nibs, fresh banana and kitsch bright yellow dyed cream. Amanda and I could not stop cracking up at this comical dessert.  Although it was super sweet, the lack of pie casing didn’t stop us and we sat giggling like school girls as we spooned it into our gobs.

Cute

My late morning brunch has definitely incited my interest in this venue and I am determined to come back and try their evening menu. All the staff were vibrant, passionate and looked like they loved their jobs and enthusiasm is very infectious.  I can’t wait to see what the Boy thinks of Miss Kitty’s!
