I came to Jack Ruby nearly 5 months ago on their opening day. My first review of this was probably little unfair as they were still finding their feet. Today, I decided to give this place another go to see whether anything had changed. For lunch, I ordered the Pulled Pork and Slaw Burger. Complimentary…

Ed Castle
The Ed Castle is located towards the western end of Currie Street in a building that is nearly 2 centuries old. Considering the city of Adelaide is not that old itself, this particular venue has historical significance. The first thing you notice when you enter the place is the set of pool tables. I initially…
Hypnothaized
Don’t be fooled by the lack of Thai people that work here! There could have been a team of Thai chefs slaving away in the kitchen, but that couldn’t be verified. Whatever the case, Hypnothaized is one of the best Thai restaurants in Adelaide. From the same team that originally opened Tongue Thai’d in Mile…
Mint Leaf
Mint Leaf is a brand new store that has just opened on Gawler Place. It’s so new that some parts of the store haven’t been completely renovated. Specialising in Vietnamese cuisine, this contemporarily decorated store seats about 50 people. The menu is not that extensive, however, I see this as a good thing as the…
Maiz & Mezcal
I’ve heard reasonably good things about Maiz and Mezcal, so I was happy to make the journey out east to see what all the fuss was about. The place is located on busy Magill Road and is of a reasonable size. Taking up the floor space of 3 small shops, it could easily accommodate over…
Yvonne’s Yiros Cafe
Yvonne’s Yiros Cafe is located towards the eastern end of Rundle Street and has been open for the last 8 months. The owner, who is Turkish in origin, has only been in the country for 10 years. He has run 4 other yiros stores in the past, and knows exactly what it takes to run…
Big Table
As crazy as it sounds, I popped in to the Big Table with a friend on a Saturday morning at 7am before a wine tour. Surprisingly enough, their main tables, as well as the bar area in front of the counter, were already occupied with customers. Their menu is fairly standard with the exception of…
Basil and Lemongrass
Basil and Lemongrass is a cafe on Prospect Road. The place offers all your traditional Thai dishes at prices that are on par with their competitors. The decor is modern and stylish, and you could easily fit 50 into this place. Tonight, we decided to go for the banquet, to get a good taste of…
Little Miss Miami
From the same people behind Little Miss Mexico, is a brand new themed pop up bar just around the corner, called Little Miss Miami. Unlike their predecessor, this venue is indoors in a double storey building, however, the upstairs section wasn’t accessible in its first opening to the public. The decor here is aimed at…
Culshaw’s
I’ve had this restaurant on my “to eat” list for quite some time, and tonight I got to experience some fine modern Australian cuisine. Located on the ground floor of the Majestic Hotel, the place is not particularly large, however, it is beautifully decorated. The large stylish light fittings, the chique open bar, the classic…
