At Adelaide Food Central, we do love our Roast Pork Banh Mi. With new stores popping up all the time, it’s difficult to try every single place in Adelaide, however, I have done my best. I also understand that there isn’t a single place that can consistently produce a great Vietnamese roll, so experiences may…

KKY Vietnamese Meat Rolls
Vietnamese street food is all the craze at the moment with yet another new store opening on the outskirts of the city. Located in a small complex amongst other shops and eateries is KKY Vietnamese Meat Rolls. This quaint little store is neat and well presented with everything shiny and new. Seating is limited with…
Samurai Teppanyaki
For those that know nothing about Japanese food, teppanyaki is a style of Japanese cuisine that utilises a hot iron plate to cook food. “Teppan” literally translated from Japanese means “iron plate”, while “yaki” means “grilled”, “broiled” or “pan fried”. There aren’t too many Japanese restaurants in Adelaide that do Teppanyaki, and the only one…
Sit Lo
As someone who eats out quite often, I see a lot of trends in the food industry. Last year, burger joints and dessert bars were quite popular, while this year there are eateries with Latin American influences and Vietnamese street food. Sit Lo is located on the new revitalised Bank Street and is the lastest…
Yummy Banh Mi
With the rising popularity of Vietnamese rolls in Adelaide, it just wouldn’t be right if there wasn’t a local store down Semaphore Road. Located close to the beach, Yummy Banh Mi is situated amongst popular pubs, cafes and restaurants. As their name suggests, Vietnamese meat rolls are their specialty with 8 types of filling to…
Soonta – James Place
Soonta has 3 stores within the Adelaide CBD and is one of the better known Vietnamese takeaway joints in Adelaide. I’ve eaten at their Rundle Place store before and wasn’t very impressed, however, I thought I’d give their James Place store a go to see how they fare. Their menu is simple and straight forward…
Yen Linh – Adelaide
Those that live out west in Croydon Park would be familiar with Yen Linh. Well, they’ve expanded and opened a new store on Field Street in the city. Specialising in Vietnamese cuisine, their offerings are a slightly cut down version from the parent store. The entrees have been renamed “small plates”, and there are new…
Roll’N On Bower
I’ve read good things about Roll’N on Bower, and it was my mission to have a Vietnamese roll here if I was ever in the area. The store itself is small with a handful of seats, but the place does have a warm and cosy vibe about it. The food offerings here aren’t extensive but…
Yu Feng Tai
Yu Feng Tai is a small eatery in the Renaissance Arcade food court. While many of the businesses come in the form of stalls with shared seating, this place has it’s own store with seating downstairs, upstairs and in the food court area. Their offerings include Shanghai buns and a selection of Taiwanese dishes. For…
Adelaide City Snack Bar
I recently downloaded a smartphone application called “Banh Mi Locator” which tells me all the nearest stores where I can buy Vietnamese rolls based on my current location. Looking at the list generated, I discover I haven’t visited the Adelaide City Snack Bar located further down Angus Street. The application tells me that their Roast…
