Driving down Grange Road, I know of 4 different stores that sell Vietnamese Roast Pork Rolls. You Like Rolls is one of the first stores you’ll come across as you drive out the city. The store is quite small with a handful of seats, while the menu is simple and straight forward with a selection…

Vietnam Sunrise
I’ve driven past Vietnam Sunrise so many times without giving this place much thought. The black exterior just makes this place uninviting, however once you walk in, it is a pleasant surprise. The restaurant is open plan with beautifully polished timber floorboards and imposing high ceilings. On one main wall, there is a mural that…
Bici Espresso e Pasticceria
I have previously read about this place and knew it was somewhere on Hutt Street, but it was never obvious to me exactly where it was. It was only one day when I was driving down towards South Terrace did I notice the big signage. The venue itself is modern and spacious with two counters…
Tiger Lilly
Tiger Lilly is a small cafe on the busy Melbourne Street cafe precinct. Seating exactly 44, the chairs and tables are nicely spaced without being too close to each other. The decor is nothing to write home about with a few decorative fans and paintings adorning the walls. The place does look it could do…
Mango Tree
After hearing rave reviews about Mango Tree from a friend, I thought it was time to check this place out. Located close to the beginning of Port Road heading west, the restaurant appears to be nothing special when you look at it’s narrow frontage. The inside is deceptively spacious with curved arches that separate two…
Sun Mi’s Sushi
Don’t be mislead into thinking this is a Japanese place because of the name, it’s actually Korean. When the Japanese occupied Korea between 1910 and 1945, they introduced kimbap, which is the Korean version of sushi. What’s the difference? The Japanese use vinegar in their sushi rice, while the Koreans use sesame oil. Anyway, I…
Chinatown Cafe
Chinatown Cafe is located close to the centre of the Grote Street and Gouger Street entrances on Moonta Street. This place has two things going for it, it’s location and it’s cheap prices. The amount of foot traffic that goes past this place alone would keep the cash register ticking, however, all their main meals…
Yankee Cafe
With the number of American fast food stores opening up around the city, South Australia is slowly becoming the next American state. Yankee Cafe is the latest to open it’s doors and is located literally metres away from Henley Beach. The cafe is tastefully decorated with patterned wallpaper and picture frames along the wall. The…
Pigs On Fire
Vegetarians look away! There’s a Dutch pop-up BBQ called Pigs On Fire that makes it’s appearance at the Garden of Unearthly Delights only once a year. The BBQ is something to marvelled at. It’s constructed from timber logs and iron grates built in the form of a teepee. Just about every part of the pig…
Gelatissimo – Rundle St
During mad March in Adelaide, the Rundle Street precinct is a buzz with people and shops try to capitalise on the influx of people that venture into the city. With the numerous dessert stores along the strip, Gelatissimo is strikingly busy, particularly on a warm night. It’s quick and it’s easy, and people order their…
