Gail Williams
FOOD WRITER
SHE’S the undisputed queen of food writing in Perth and seems to know everybody who matters in the hospitality scene. Gail has interviewed everybody from the Queen to Heston Blumenthal, and thanks to her background as a home economics teacher, she can ‘bash her way around a kitchen,’ she says, as well as critiquing the food in restaurants. It’s a role that’s kept her busy for the past 20 years and one we are very glad she’s decided to continue under the Galley Press moniker. She has also written for the Sunday Independent, Sunday Times and The Australian.

Di says that a good meal can keep her on a high for two days and in Perth, her favourite neighbourhoods are Subiaco, Leederville and Mount Hawthorn, home to some of the best Italian eateries in the city. It’s Di’s dream to live down south in summer, and in the winter, live in Italy. She wishes she could surf, pretends to keep fit and loves the sound of fast cars. She’s a people watcher, a recovering chocoholic and shamelessly addicted to travel and proper coffee. Bear in mind that if it’s Italian, it’ll get her attention.
