Naan Tandoori

Naan Tandoori is a take away food outlet in the Southern Cross food court. My sources tell me that the owner is Pakistani, but the food served here is primarily Indian. There are 4 vegetarian curry dishes, about 6 classical meat dishes, vegetable samosa’s and naan bread. The vegetable curry is $6 and you can…

Breadtop – Grote St – Adelaide

Breadtop is an Asian bakery franchise with over 60 stores around the country. With 80 bread and pastry products and over 70 types of cakes on offer, there’s really something for everyone at this store. I really like the self serve purchasing concept that they have here, and how everything is baked fresh on the…

Ruby Red Flamingo

For those who intend on eating here, no bookings are accepted at this Ruby Red Flamingo. If you come early enough, getting a seat shouldn’t be a problem. The dining area is a combination of formal and semi-outdoor. We were escorted to the semi-outdoor area which consisted of a mismatch of decor. The glasses at…

Bad Boy Burger Bar – North Adelaide

I’ve read some really bad reviews about the Bad Boy Burger Bar, and prior to coming here, I was expecting a disappointing meal. The decor here is basic, slightly modern, kind of funky and a bit cluttered. To me, this place was like a new age Greek take away joint that offered gourmet burgers. Tonight,…

Thai Cuisine

Thai Cuisine is a take away food outlet in the Myer Centre food court. Normally, you can only get Thai food from a restaurant or a cafe, but never from a food court. This particular store is interesting because it is run by the same staff from the Asian Delights food outlet next door. When…

Dim Well Cafe

Dim Well is a relatively new yum cha eatery located in the Gouger Street cafe precinct. The menu is your stock standard yum cha fare which is prepared as ordered. The place is relatively small with the tables close to each other. There’s no way a yum cha trolley is going to make its way…

Buckingham Arms Hotel

Located outside the fringe of the city is the Buckingham Arms Hotel. I have been here several years ago for a coworkers service anniversary lunch. It wasn’t great back then and it still isn’t that great now. I guess they should get bonus points for consistency. The decor here is old. I wouldn’t be surprised…

Soonta – Rundle Place

Soonta is take away joint in the Rundle Place food court and is also part of a franchise with several stores around the city. Their menu mainly consists of Vietnamese rolls, salads, cold rolls and spring rolls, however, some of their ingredients are Japanese inspired. Setup similar to a Subway store, customers order from one…

Ricky’s Kitchen

Ricky’s Kitchen is pretty good for food court food. The food is freshly made and you get restaurant quality food at food court prices! How good is that? Their Barbecue Pork with Bok Choy and Noodles is the bomb! The meat is lean and well marinated, and plenty of it. The vegetables were well cooked…

Le Carpe Diem

Located on Grenfell Street, at the East Terrace end, is a new French creperie, Le Carpe Diem. Their food menu is basically made up of two main items, sweet crepes and savoury galettes. For those that are not familiar, galettes are flat round crusty cakes. The decor here is traditional Parisian style. The paintings, the…
