No need to climb Mt Everest for Nepalese tucker, it’s all here at the Himalayan Kitchen. Located on the northern end of Melbourne Street, this cosy little restaurant offers all your Nepalese favourites. To remind us of where we are, the place is decorated with pictures of the Himalayas. The staff are warm and inviting….

Star House
So many places to choose from when it comes to yum cha down Gouger Street. I must admit I’m a regular at the place across the road, but this place isn’t too bad either. The decor at this place is simple and the service wasn’t too bad. They have a large selection of yum cha dishes…
Gourmet Glaze
When it comes to plain glazed donuts, Krispy Kreme have perfected the recipe and other donut stores just don’t seem to get it right. When it comes to variations of donut styles and flavours, Gourmet Glaze are pretty good. I get weak at the knees with their Vanilla Iced Ring donut. The donut is soft…
Montezuma’s – Melbourne St
I’ve been to Montezuma’s several times over the years and the menu hasn’t changed. The menu offers a range of dishes, and various combinations of those dishes. While the food is not authentic, it is reasonably cheap. The restaurant has a Aztec theme about it with all the Mexican paraphernalia hanging off the walls. The…
Nanyang Cafe
When my Malay friends tell me that Nanyang serves the most authentic Malaysian cuisine in Adelaide, I believe them. Located in the Renaissance Arcade, this two level cafe is always busy and the majority of their customers are Asian. The number of Asian customers in an Asian eatery is a true litmus test as to…
Tasty Thai By Meow Thai
Tasty Thai is a long rectangular store on Bank Street. It’s not the most conventional looking place, but it certainly has frontage. The decor is modern and elegant, the staff were warm and inviting, and the service was quite good. I decided to go for their Beef Curry. The vegetables were fresh and the flavours were…
Caffe Prego
After an 8km walk to Glenelg and back, a group of us were feeling a bit peckish and were in the mood for some Italian. Located metres away from Brighton Jetty, Prego has a menu that is not too different to those Italian cafe franchises. Unlike the other reviewers, I didn’t have too many problems…
Pondok Bali
For authentic Balinese cuisine, look no further than Pondok Bali. The place is decorated beautifully and it’s just like being in Bali without being in Bali. I came here after a recommendation and was pleasantly surprised. This is now my regular place for Balinese food. The staff here are warm and inviting and the service is…
Le Riad
Le Riad is the first Moroccan restaurant that I have ever been to and I was not disappointed. Located on Pulteney Street, this place is decked out like you were actually in Morocco. The staff are warm and inviting and the restaurant itself is nice and cosy. The menu is reasonably priced and offers all…
Payneham Chinese Restaurant
Payneham Chinese Restaurant as you would expect is found in Payneham. The owners used to have a restaurant in the city centre and served up some pretty good yum cha. With rising rental costs, they moved their restaurant out to the suburbs and took their chefs with them. The new premises are nicely decorated and…
