Tongue Thai’d
I love restaurant names that are puns. Located on the outer skirts of the city, Tongue Thai’d is a breathe of fresh air in what is a dreary part of Henley Beach Road. With a maze of indoor and outdoor seating areas which seats about 150, this place is tastefully decorated. The Buddha ornaments, the…
Sato
Sato is small, and consists of a combination of traditional and normal tables. The seating capacity is about 40. The decor here is traditional, however I have seen more authentically decorated Japanese restaurants. Tonight, we were seated at one of the traditional tables. Each traditional table was setup on a split level floor with space…
I Am Thai

Giwa
Giwa is a modern Korean restaurant located on the King William Road cafe precinct. The decor here is classy and stylish with good use of colour coordination on their wallpaper, leather seating and light fittings. The neutral colours used create a calming effect, and coupled with the relaxing sounds of jazz music playing in the…
Simply Sushi
Simply Sushi is a sushi train store on Jetty Road in Glenelg. The first thing you notice about this store is the poor signage, particularly during the evening. Anyone who didn’t know where it was may have had trouble finding the place. Upon entering the store, it appeared to be another Sushi Train imitation. The…
