Tara Restaurant

Tara is a restaurant located on Melbourne Street serving up internationally inspired, wholesome, fresh, organic, gluten-free meals. They also have a much smaller presence at The Marketshed on Holland every Sunday morning. On this particular morning, they have two Filipino street food dishes and an Indian mango lassi. At Tara, it’s all about holistic nutrition…

Live a Little Artisan Gelato

There are over a dozen places around Adelaide where you can get Live a Little gelato, however, if you happen to be at The Market Shed on a Sunday morning, they also have a stall there too. There are 6 flavours of gelato available as well as Belgian Waffles and Crepes. At Live a Little,…

Seacliff Beach Hotel

About a decade ago, the Seacliff used to be my usual hangout for drinks on a Friday night. I used to live a few suburbs away and I had friends that lived in the area. Of course, things change and so do people’s circumstances, and I found myself not frequenting this place anymore. Fast forward…

Umi Sushi – Glenelg

Umi Sushi is a franchise that started back in 2006 with a handful of stores both here in South Australia and New South Wales. The Glenelg store is located inside the Bayside Village Shopping Centre, and with it’s small open plan kitchen area, it offers just over a dozen seats for customers to dine in….

Schnithouse – Adelaide

What was once Alfresco on Rundle, and Sliders on Rundle, is now the Schnit House. Having made many first day appearances at this address, I was a bit skeptical as to whether this place would be any good. Gourmet schnitzels are nothing new as a place called House of Schnitzel already has a similar concept….

Cafe 55 at Mayfair Hotel

Cafe 55 is located adjacent to the lobby of the new Mayfair Hotel on King William Street. Quaint and cosy in size, this place offers crusty baguettes, healthy salads, home made soups, artisan pies, cold pressed juices, sweet and savoury snacks and hand crafted coffee. The cafe is located in a modern and colourful space….

Ben and Jerry’s

Since last year, Ben & Jerry’s ice cream has been readily available from Adelaide supermarkets. It’s only recently that Adelaide’s first scoop shop opened, and the sixth such store to open in a Hoyts cinema complex. How does Ben & Jerry’s differ from other ice cream places? I’d have to say it’s their creative inventive…

Windy Point Restaurant – Summer Degustation 2015

Adelaide Food Central was invited to Windy Point Restaurant to sample the Summer Degustation 2015 menu. All food and drinks were provided by Windy Point Restaurant free of charge. Windy Point Restaurant is one of my favourite dining destinations in Adelaide, particularly for that special occasion. Using fresh quality ingredients, the dishes are picture perfect…

MP3 Cafe

I must admit I was a bit reluctant about visiting MP3 due to the number of negative reviews. My past experience also suggests that a place that does “international” cuisine usually produces average food all round. Anyway, the only to find out whether this place was any good was to actually go there myself, albeit…

Lucky Vietnamese Roll – Glenelg

The owner of Yakumi, Glenelg Spices and the former Korean BBQ has changed with the times and now introduced Vietnamese street food in the form of Lucky Vietnamese Roll. Open for breakfast and lunch, the new Vietnamese section is a temporary set up at the frontage of the Japanese section of the restaurant. There are…
