In Subiaco's Rokeby Rd restaurant enclave, Meeka combines Modern Australian cuisine with the flavours of the Middle East and North Africa. Of the many meze dishes try the local tempura whiting (fish) with eggplant puree and pomegranate salad, while a lamb tagine will send you home full-bellied. At $60, the chef's multicourse menu is excellent value.
