The Renovation of David Jones in the City is finally coming to fruition. No more entry/exit into the Queen Street Mall, access is from inside Queens Plaza. All the Old Brands are back, with New ones as well. Is that Jimmy Choo over there near the Louboutin's? And can I see a Tom Ford Counter, decked out like his New York Flagship? Yes, I can! Unfortunetly there is one thing missing, and boy, is it a dissappointment.
Where is the David Jones Foodhall?
Millions of Dollars has been spent Restoring the Old DJ's Building and Extending it into Queens Plaza, without even the sight of a Cheese Counter!! The David Jones Foodhall in Central Perth is something to relish in. Coffin Bay Oysters with a crisp Pinot Grigio. Fresh Seafood cooked right in front of you. Sushi. Chinese. Italian. And don't forget the Fresh Meats and Desserts to die for. The City is in desperate need of a Top Quality Foodhall, somewhere that does'nt scream FOODCOURT!! We need demonstrations from Maggie Beer and Christine Manfield and products available straight from Queensland Farms.....not to mention a guilt-free enviroment where you can sit back at lunchtime, have a glass of Red, while rocking your
2 year old to sleep!
I suppose I'm preaching to the converted or should I say...the Refurbished. Anyway, I suppose for now, we'll just have to keep making the pilgrimage to James Street Markets, which is'nt at all bad, it's just a hell of a commute for the Office Worker/Foodie in the City, and I am sorry, as much as we love good old Coles, it just does'nt cut it!!!

You wrote, what we're all thinking.
It is a shame.

Bring back the DJ's cafeteria. Yes, it is shame the foodhall won't happen. a stupid shame.
Moreover, so sad that the old 'Shingle Inn' won't be back. What a bloody shame!
