A taste of Latin America in a prime Cottesloe spot.
From possibly Perth’s longest pop-up to becoming an established name in Cottesloe’s oceanside dining scene, there’s lots to like at Indigo Oscar. There’s no mistaking the iconic location, in what was previously the Indiana Teahouse, and those right-on-the-beach ocean views. And the fact that it’s fun. It moves to a beat that chimes with its Latin American-leaning menu. You could, if you were inclined to, just graze on the smaller plates. Order big on scorched corn arepa, tuna tostada with avocado salsa, or scene-stealing empanada filled with beef cheeks slow-cooked over 12 hours. Large plates of woodfired meat hit the mark for groups, or for those looking to box some up. Lamb shoulder with red chimichurri is great wrapped in grilled arepas. While beachside, a beer or a chilled white often seems appropriate, but they do a stellar job for those hitting the non-alcoholic list. Big names in that space like Lyres, Seedlip, Heaps Normal and NON all feature.
