STM Loves: Kikiva Karrinyup, Pinchos, Strange Company turns 11 and Come Alive!

Pinchos

If your mouth has been watering scrolling through the latest chip charcuterie trend on social media, this Leederville institution has a version that you don’t need to construct yourself. There are of course the obligatory potato crisps layered with jamon, manchego, guindillas and further flavour bombed with honey, dukkah and chorizo friend bread crumbs. The Patatas de Picoteo is available from 12-5pm, Tuesday to Sunday, for $18.

Kikiva

This Perth-founded activewear brand with Kia Buckley at the helm is going from strength to strength. From its viral social media content to opening its first bricks and mortar store in Karrinyup — that attracted a massive line, including fans sleeping overnight to secure their spot at the front — it’s incredible to see a young female entrepreneur making her mark. Find in store at Karrinyup, or online at kikivacollection.com.

Come Alive!

Relive the magic of anthems like Rewrite The Stars and This Is Me as Come Alive! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular swings into Crown Perth. Performed inside a purpose-built hippodrome, the performance brings together a talented line-up of acrobats, dancers, actors and singers promising to dazzle against the iconic film soundtrack. The Perth season opens August 27, tickets available at comealiveshow.com.au.

Edition 91
