Lunch at the Indiana..



  Yesterday I took a good friend to the Indiana, formerly the Indiana Tea House for her birthday. You've seen the Indiana before but it's almost impossible to visit and not take photos.. especially when the sea is a stunning turquoise blue, so beautiful it almost makes one forget about the sharks :) Described as 'an iconic WA landmark located on the pristine white sands of Cottesloe beach, offering diners uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean from all tables'.. Is it just me or does this building evoke memories of colonial times! It was a sunny, cloudy at times 25C, encore today, perfect! Happy Thursday, take care and stay safe...

  5. The Indiana is a beautiful design in a gorgeous setting. Yes. It does seem to have a colonial flavour. The arched tall windows and the corner features seem to connect with colonial designs.

  9. Very much like a colonial building, although it was only built in 1994. Regardless, it is wonderfully photogenic and a very pleasant place to lunch.

  15. Awww, such a beautiful place always, Grace.
    Except for the sharks, that is! Three times when we were there! Well, in Perth and such, not Cottesloe...

  17. Love the building - great design and the beach is to die for. Stay away from sharks, though, 'cause they can do a lot of damage...we have lots of them in the Atlantic on our east coast.

  18. That building does have a colonial look to it. It's gorgeous. Take me there when I visit Perth. :-). It looks like you had a gorgeous day to be by the sea.

  23. It is a handsome old building. With no knowledge at all to back it up, it is the kind of architecture that I associate with Brighton on the southern coast of Britain. (Off to Google . . . )
