Coco's Perth plus Joy Rides, Feb 2016

👩‍🦰 Another birthday, another example of Aaron spoiling me rotten and setting a very dangerous precedent for future birthdays! He asked me to dress snappy and showed up looking very dapper indeed in a lovely silver suit.

I learned that he was not to be my chauffeur for the night and not long after he showed up, the most gorgeous vintage car arrived. I don’t know much about cars but I love that old-school aesthetic and this car was just stunning. The driver was very friendly as well and knew his photography angles which always helps!

Rather than just head straight to the restaurant, we took a scenic route to get there, popping by the beautiful King’s Park to take some piccies before continuing on our way to Coco’s in South Perth. I’d never actually been to Coco’s myself but it’s one of the most popular fine dining restaurants in Perth, and it’s Aaron’s favourite restaurant - no ulterior motive there for the restaurant selection choice haha! His family goes there for special occasions and I was super excited to check it out.

After we arrived in style, we were sat out on the balcony to enjoy not only the gorgeous views but the warm Summer air, and it was just beautiful! The food was amazing as well, unsurprisingly - my favourite was the bombe alaska for dessert that came enclosed in chocolate which they then poured the sauce over the top to melt. Just so pretty.

Aaron is probably more a fan of their extensive wine list than the food even haha! Safe to say that my Coco’s experience lived up to the hype! If you’re really looking to impress someone or even just have a fantastic meal in a wonderful spot, Coco’s is definitely the way to go.
