With the number of Asian eateries down Gouger Street, it’s only fitting that the China Chilli restaurant opens it’s doors along this popular cafe strip. As their signage suggests, this place specialises in two things; Sichuan cuisine and hot pots. Sichuan cuisine refers to a style of Chinese food that originates from the Sichuan province…

Cherry Blossom Sushi – Henley Beach Rd
Cherry Blossom Sushi is a sushi franchise that has 7 stores across the state. One of their newer stores is located on Henley Beach Road in Torrensville. Unlike some of their other stores, this particular store is standalone and has seats for just under a dozen people. While their normal seating is practical, I found…
Matcha House
For those that don’t know, matcha (also known as maccha) is a fine powder green tea. Japanese tea ceremonies centre on the preparation, serving and drinking of matcha, however, in modern times, it’s used to flavour and dye foods. I actually came here not knowing what matcha was, but true to their name, most things…
Moonsoon
When I first briskly walked past this place at the beginning of the year, I initially thought the name of this restaurant was “Monsoon”. It seemed a bit odd that they would use the same name as an Indian restaurant also in North Adelaide. After a bit of research, I discovered they were “Moonsoon”, a…
Bim’s Bar
Bim’s Bar is a new take away store located at the former Sushi Crane site. Based close to the corner of King William and Pirie Streets, this store extends the previous Japanese offerings to include Korean cuisine as well.

Located on Gawler Place, on the former site of Mama Pierogi, the cafe offers home style Vietnamese dishes, Vietnamese rolls, snacks and sweets. The cafe is family run…
Roll In Saigon
Roll In Saigon is a small store on Goodwood Road just before the tram stop. Based on the food keeping warm under their heat lamps, I would say their roast pork, grilled chicken and spring rolls are their best sellers. In the other cabinet, they literally have piles of vegetables for their Vietnamese rolls. This…
Strawberry Fair Bakery
Strawberry Fair Bakery is a small family owned store located on busy South Road in Clovelly Park. One of the advantages of being a bakery is it’s fresh supply of Vietnamese rolls. This compliments their food offerings quite nicely. All their clientele are take away customers as there is no seating at this bakery. For…
House Of Pearl
House of Pearl used to be located amidst the hustle and bustle of Gouger Street, but has since moved to a quieter side street within the area. The restaurant specialises in Malaysian food, and their menu is quite extensive. The menu offerings are divided between entrees, rice and noodles, vegetables, seafood and meat dishes. They…
