As far as I am aware, there aren’t too many places that offer Indonesian cuisine in Adelaide. Ketut’s Kitchen has recently opened on the busy O’Connell Street cafe precinct in order to fill that void. It also takes advantage of the fictional character name made well known by the AAMI insurance advertising. The place itself…

Gong Gong Makan Place
Gong Gong Makan Place is located in Renaissance Arcade food court at the eastern end of Rundle Mall. From what I could see, this place does a variety of Asian cuisines, and on this particular occasion, they had a Vietnamese menu. Seating is plentiful as they are one of the few stores to open on…
Pattaya Thai – North Adelaide
When most kitchens are closing up after 9pm, Pattaya Thai, on the northern end of O’Connell Street is still cooking up a storm. The decor is neat and elegant, although some parts of the store aren’t as well lit as others. The menu offers all your traditional Thai favourites and the seating at this place…
Go-In Hot Pot Train
Go-In Hot Pot Train was previously located on Hindley Street but has now moved to a more convenient Gouger Street location. Believe it or not, this is the first time I’ve ever been out for anything like this and personally, I think the concept is fantastic. Don’t be deceived by the name, there actually is…
Pira Thai
Pira Thai is a small restaurant located outside the city fringe in Unley. This place came highly recommended so I came here expecting a good meal. I’ve also read reviews about how the decor isn’t that great. I’d have to agree. It’s fairly basic, however, it’s still neat and well presented. Their menu offers all…
Banh Mi – Grenfell Plaza
If anybody has been to Chinatown down where the old food court is, they would be familiar with Banh Mi. Well, they happen to have another store at Grenfell Plaza, right behind the Hugo Boss store on Grenfell Street. Besides the fact I was craving for a Vietnamese roll, I couldn’t help notice the busy…
Ginza Japanese Restaurant
There are few Japanese restaurants that I haven’t been to in Adelaide, and Ginza was one of them. I’ve heard plenty of reports of how good their yakiniku (grilled meat) barbecue is, so I was here to try it out. The front of the restaurant is the formal dining section which looks quite modern and…
Noodle and Dumpling House
The thing I love about the Central Market is that the food is cheap, and we’re not even talking about sitting inside a food court. Noodle and Dumpling House is a prime example. The food is typical Chinese with main meals around the $15 mark. The store itself is deceptive in size but efficiently used….
Thu Nguyen
If it wasn’t for the name of this place you’d think it was just a typical lunch bar selling sandwiches and rolls. They do sell these items, however, the Vietnamese owner also has Roast Pork rolls on the menu. Without any hesitation, I ordered one. Made on the spot and packaged in a blank white…
You Like Rolls
Driving down Grange Road, I know of 4 different stores that sell Vietnamese Roast Pork Rolls. You Like Rolls is one of the first stores you’ll come across as you drive out the city. The store is quite small with a handful of seats, while the menu is simple and straight forward with a selection…
