Are you sick of the typical Asian take away places where the food is greasy and loaded with MSG? There’s a new cosy little store that has opened up close to the corner of King William and Pirie Street called Mamachau.

Long House Cafe
While having dessert at Sir Cafe, the owner tipped me off about a new Malaysian cafe on Hutt Street called Long House. Keen to see what they’re all about, I decided to pay them a visit. The first thing you notice about this place is the pink facade. As you enter the cafe, the main…
Miyabi Sushi
When one sushi place closes on James Place, another one opens. The new player in the sushi game is Miyabi Sushi. The decor here is modern and contemporary with nice use of earth tones in the form of timber facades. The full length mirror across the bar seating area gives this place a sense of…
Chocolate @ No.5
I’ve only ever heard good things about this place, and you know what? Every word is true. Located towards the end of the main street in Hahndorf is Chocolate @ No.5. Set in a beautifully restored cottage, the polished timber flooring and stone walls give this place a warm and cosy atmosphere. The menu is…
Hahndorf Inn
My favourite place for German food is the Hahndorf Inn. When ever I’m in the area, I will make sure that I have lunch there. Hahndorf is a good 20 minute drive from the city, but for premium quality dishes and authentic German cuisine, it’s well worth the drive. The decor is traditional and it’s…

The menu is fairly standard for a dessert store. Coffee, hot and cold beverages, a small selection…
Sir Cafe – Runde St – Adelaide
Sir Cafe is a cute little dessert and tea house located on the first floor of a Rundle Street terrace building. The signage is small and it’s one of those places that you actually need to look for. The decor is both charming and tasteful, which is totally opposite to its nearby neighbour. The elegant…
Golden Boy
The Botanic Bar has replaced what was once a seating and pool table area with a new Thai restaurant, Golden Boy. The venue is not particularly large with a long tiled bench running across the centre of the room. Surrounding the bench is a booth, a series of small tables, and a bar towards the…
Tin Bin Bo
Tin Bin Bo is a small Vietnamese eatery located on Grange Road. They specialise in Vietnamese rolls but also offer a selection of rice vermicelli dishes as well as other small snacks. The place itself is in a long narrow building with garage and cooking facilities at the rear of the premises. The service and…
Sliders On Rundle
Joining the burger bandwagon is Sliders on Rundle, which is located at the former site of Alfresco’s. This place is not purely dedicated to burgers as your pizza and pasta options (that were available at Alfresco’s) are still on the menu. You could almost say that this place has become Americanised Italian, with the addition…
