Don’t judge a restaurant by its crappy decor. This rings very true, particularly for this place. The external appearance of this place reminds me of a run down crack house, while the internal is a bit more presentable. I would never have considered this place had I not read some positive reviews of the place….

Hypnothaized
Don’t be fooled by the lack of Thai people that work here! There could have been a team of Thai chefs slaving away in the kitchen, but that couldn’t be verified. Whatever the case, Hypnothaized is one of the best Thai restaurants in Adelaide. From the same team that originally opened Tongue Thai’d in Mile…
Mint Leaf
Mint Leaf is a brand new store that has just opened on Gawler Place. It’s so new that some parts of the store haven’t been completely renovated. Specialising in Vietnamese cuisine, this contemporarily decorated store seats about 50 people. The menu is not that extensive, however, I see this as a good thing as the…
Basil and Lemongrass
Basil and Lemongrass is a cafe on Prospect Road. The place offers all your traditional Thai dishes at prices that are on par with their competitors. The decor is modern and stylish, and you could easily fit 50 into this place. Tonight, we decided to go for the banquet, to get a good taste of…
Taste Baguette – Adelaide Uni
I was so impressed with the Taste Baguette Rundle Street store, I couldn’t wait to see what their Adelaide University store was like. Located inside Hub Central, this particular store is a bit more spacious, and I was delighted to see that their pricing was a bit lower. While Hub Central appears to be a…
Kim’s BBQ
I’ve always been reluctant to try Kim’s BBQ, mainly because of the look of the stall never appealed to me. But then again, none of the stalls in this food court set each other apart. It was only until I read positive reviews that I decided to give this place a go. Today, I ordered…
Sushi Bar Genki
Sushi Bar Genki is the latest sushi train style place to open up in Adelaide. The store is run by the grandmaster of sushi, Chef Ikeda. Most of the Japanese restaurants in Adelaide will have owners or chefs that have worked under him. His presence is felt, as he stands in the centre, directing the…
Cherry Blossom Sushi – Pulteney St
Cherry Blossom is a small store located just outside Adelaide University on Pulteney Street. This particular store has a bit more variety than the other stores. They sell your usual sushi, sushi packs, udon noodles and bento boxes. The store itself is quite small with seating only available for 14. Today, I decided to order…
Taste Baguette – Rundle St
I’ve walked past this place on many occasions without really knowing what it was. The exterior of the store is dark and the signage is not clearly visible unless you’re up close. It was only when I read some reviews on the place did I realise this was the same place they were talking about….
Yakitori Takumi
Yakitori Takumi is a Japanese restaurant located close to the eastern end of Melbourne Street in North Adelaide. Unlike other conventional Japanese restaurants, there is no sushi or sashimi at this place. Their main specialty is yakitori, which refers to skewered food. The dishes come in small portions and the place is really a Japanese…
