I’d have to say that the only place better than the Windy Point Cafe is the restaurant with the same name upstairs. With breath taking views across the city, the only difference between the two establishments is the slightly cheaper price point and the lower view elevation. The decor is more casual than what you…

Wine Underground
After reading all the negative reviews of this place, I came here with little expectation and was pleasantly surprised. Wine Underground is located towards the centre of Pirie Street in a nice modern building (it used to be in an old building that exploded and was then redeveloped). The decor is sleek and stylish with…
Stunned Mullet
It’s no surprise that some of the top fish and chip shops in Adelaide are located in beach side suburbs. Located on a side street just off Henley Beach Road is the Stunned Mullet. It’s not a particularly large store with most of their clientele being take away customers as they head towards the beach….
Afghan Charcoal Kebab House
We’re fairly lucky living in a multicultural society as we get to experience a wide range of cuisines right at our doorstep. Today, I stumbled upon the Afghan Charcoal Kebab House which is about three eighths down Hindley Street coming from the Rundle Street end. Parwana is the only other Afghan eatery I’ve been to…
Lockleys Hotel
Lockleys Hotel is located out in the western suburbs, not far away from Henley Beach. Like all good pubs, they have weekday lunch specials, which is the selling point that drew me in. The place itself is quite large and there is plenty of parking outside. Not only is there a bar and dining area,…
Earth’s Kitchen
Right at this very address used to be one of my favourite Italian restaurants. It’s replacement, Earth’s Kitchen, just made things a whole lot healthier. Located on the corner of Pirie and Hyde Street, this place prides itself on everything fresh, local, organic and gluten free. The menu isn’t too overly complicated with a selection…
The Taxpayer
When one bar closes, another one opens. With the closing of the much loved Dragonfly, comes a brand new bar, The Taxpayer. Set in the prime location of Victoria Square, this venue is a little bit of everything. This place serves breakfast and lunch throughout the week, but as you head towards the weekend, it…
From Orient
With Chinese food available just about everywhere you go, some people are a bit hesitant about paying a premium for something they can get cheaper elsewhere. There are very few fine dining Chinese restaurants in Adelaide, with Concubine being the only other that comes to mind. Located on Pirie Street, From Orient is tucked away…
Viet Charm
Based at the same location where Sugar Cane once was is a rebadged restaurant called Viet Charm. Apart from the change in signage, the decor is pretty much the same. The tiled flooring, the timber furnishings and the earthy colour tones give this place a warm cosy feel. With floor to ceiling windows along it’s…
Holy Guacamoly
Adelaide’s love affair with everything Mexican continues as a new eatery called Holy Guacamoly has recently opened in the trendy Norwood cafe precinct. If you can imagine a Mexican version of Subway, this is it, although places like Burp, Arriba Grill and Zambrero already follow a similar concept. First off, you need to choose the…
