Adelaide Asian Street Food
With street food being all the rage in Adelaide at the moment, it’s no surprise to see a new generically named store, Adelaide Asian Street Food. Located towards the King William Street end of Hindley Street, this store is run by the owners of the Go-In Hot Pot Train that was previously opened across the…
Namaste Nepalese Restaurant
Set in a quaint little cottage on the outskirts of the city, Namaste provides authentic Nepalese food which is influenced by the neighbouring countries in the region. There are a few traditional items that adorn the modern yellow and purple walls, while the white table cloths give this place an elegant touch. As a complimentary…
Cafe Pantai
Cafe Pantai is a Thai and Malay eatery tucked away in the Oaks Plaza Pier Hotel in Glenelg. The signage isn’t great and it’s not the easiest place to find, but if you walk along the beach side entrance of the hotel, it’s the first place on the right as you go through the revolving…
100 Food Station
I’ve driven past this store on many occasions and was intrigued to find out what they’re all about. The name 100 Food Station doesn’t reflect how many items that are on their menu but rather the numeric location of their store. The decor is neat and basic with the highlight being their unique solid timber…

The opening of Gin Long Canteen on the popular O’Connell Street cafe precinct sees the emergence of street food on Adelaide restaurant tables. From the same people that brought you Concubine, the menu has a focus on…
Yum Yai Thai Kitchen
There’s quite a few Thai restaurants down Henley Beach Road, and Yum Yai was one of those places that I had yet to visit, until today. Located across the road from Foodland shopping centre, this medium sized restaurant offers all your traditional Thai dishes. The decor inside is warm and cosy, although, it can get…
Hang Bakery
Hidden away in the Foodland Shopping Centre on Henley Beach Road is Hang Bakery. They sell an assortment of sweets, pastries, fresh bread and your common variety of Vietnamese rolls. The first thing that blew me away about the food here was the price. There is a selection of Vietnamese rolls for $4! There are…
Chanay Thai Fusion
You would think a place that uses the word “Thai” in their name would have some Thai dishes on their menu. Well, they don’t, and it always pays to have a look at the menu before you sit down at the restaurant. Set in a long and narrow building, the interior of this place is…
Kintaro Sushi – Norwood
Kintaro Sushi is a small sushi train store located on The Parade. My initial impression of this place was a good one, mainly because the place was packed and there was a steady stream of customers waiting for a seat. As far as sushi train stores go, this one is very modern and nicely presented….
