What the engine says about Menora
Demand 5/10: a small, affluent, quiet leafy suburb between Yokine and Mount Lawley (2,691 residents; median age 57, the oldest of its pocket) distinguished by its long-established Jewish community (Judaism ~8.2%, the Perth Hebrew Congregation synagogue and nearby Carmel School) — a settled, older residential enclave with little local retail.

Competition 4/10: the one genuine niche is a kosher/community-oriented or destination-quality format serving that community and the school-and-synagogue precinct — otherwise spend leaks to Mount Lawley's Beaufort St; not a general walk-up market.
