Residents of Perth's northern suburbs are in for a vibrant and healthy treat this weekend as Duncraig's Healthy Power Meals hosts a special community morning filled with free food, music, and mindful movement.
What's Happening This Sunday
The event, part of the popular Breakfast Beats series, is scheduled for Sunday 23 November from 7:30 am to 9:30 am. The first 200 guests through the door will be treated to complimentary nutritious offerings. They can choose between the cafe's famous Acai bowls or the newly launched Build Your Bowl (BYB) salad option, all washed down with free coconut water.
The BYB concept is a standout feature, allowing diners to craft a personalised salad from a selection of more than 40 fresh ingredients. Patrons can load up their bowl with proteins like chicken, pulled pork, turkey, tofu, or fish, and then finish it with their preferred dressings and toppings.
A Morning of Music and Movement
The morning will be more than just a meal. DJ Cue will be providing a live soundtrack from the decks set up on the grass outside the cafe, creating a lively atmosphere. For those looking to stretch and find their centre, a complimentary yoga session led by instructor Lizette Gatehouse will begin at 8:30 am.
This community-focused series was created by Vesna Spasevski and her daughter Emily to forge a space where locals can connect over healthy food, good music, and mindful practices. The first event earlier this year was a major success, drawing a crowd of over 200 participants.
Building a Healthy Community Hub
Founder Vesna Spasevski shared her enthusiasm with PerthNow, painting a picture of the cafe's morning ambience. "Mornings here at HPM are a whole vibe," she said. "The sunrise lighting up Carine Open Spaces across the road and plenty of the locals stopping by with their pups — it’s a beautiful little hub of energy and connection."
She encourages new faces to come along and enjoy the freebies, promising a memorable experience. "What better way to start the day with an invigorating stretch, fresh beats in the air, watching the sun crack open the day while biting into something that actually powers you up. Seizing the day is a game-changer."
The Sunday gathering is an all-ages, family-friendly event designed to offer a lively and different start to the weekend. Breakfast Beats #2 successfully combines nutrition, movement, and local connection.
Healthy Power Meals has been a staple in Duncraig since it opened in 2016, focusing on providing fresh, balanced meals and meal prep services for families and health-conscious individuals. Its menu extends beyond this event, featuring smoothies, bagels, wraps, salads, and their signature Acai bowls alongside the new Build Your Bowl concept.
