 Carlisle – the most unlikely of suburban hosts to house Perth's latest raw food café. Raw by Chris is by no means new – Chris has been selling her delicious products to plenty of cafes around town including two of the best; suburban neighbors Antz Inya Pantz and Harvest Espresso. It was only recently that the Romanian born, ex-UN employee settled her commercial kitchen into a gutted and cleaned real estate agency.

 Purveyors of Filth – that's the A-grade tagline representing Soggybones. If you haven't come across Soggybones before you should know that the brand has been around since 2010, a bi-annual print magazine focusing on skate and surf. It's the brainchild of down-south brothers Justin and Luke Ward – their ambition has seen them document culture in the sharpest of lights and even open up a skate shop down in Dunsborough in 2012. Now Soggybones has moved into Perth and to put it simply – it's more than your average spot.
