A touch of Sweden in the heart of Perth.....
After traveling the world Miss Maud (Maud Edmiston) landed in Perth, fell in love with the people, weather, beaches and never left, but there were certain things she missed about her homeland, Sweden, and thus the first Miss Maud's cafe in Perth was opened in 1971 and following on it's success with the Perth public, Miss Maud's Smorgasbord Restaurant on the corner of Pier and Murray Street in the heart of the City was established (now with a Miss Maud's Boutique Hotel next door) . Since those early days there are now 15 Miss Maud's at different shopping centres around Perth. Who would have thought Perthites would fall 'hook, line and Gravlax' for Swedish food, mind you the pastries and cakes are pretty special. I'd say Miss Maud definitely picked the right place to fall in love with and the mutual admiration is still going strong.....!! Very wet and blustery here in Perth this morning.....
