Important details from the source

• Ask Lucas Fernandes to describe his favourite Western Australian meal, and he doesn’t overcomplicate it: Shark Bay scallops, brown-butter emulsion, finger lime and a glass of coastal Chardonnay.
• For Fernandes, Executive Chef at Perth’s State Buildings and COMO The Treasury, the dish showcases the state’s cuisine in miniature, exemplifying restraint, clarity and confidence in the ingredient.
• For Emma Farrelly, the State Buildings’ Director of Wine and Hospitality, the choice of Chardonnay is no accident.
• “For me, the flavour of Western Australia is salinity,” she says.
• “So many of our great wine regions are in close proximity to the ocean, so we see this beautiful, salty ocean influence across many of the wines.”.
• At both COMO The Treasury and other restaurants occupying the same historic State Buildings, those conditions determine what appears on the plate, what is poured into the glass and how a visitor encounters the city.
• Across Wildflower, Post, Long Chim, Petition, and the precinct’s bars, the proposition is clear: Perth is no longer just an outpost of Australia’s food and wine conversation.
• “This is a defining chapter for Australia,” Fernandes says.
• In his 16 years in Perth, he has watched serious restaurants and wine bars spread beyond Perth’s centre into the suburbs.
• Farrelly sees more than a run of fashionable openings.
