Cocolat – Adelaide Airport

People usually go to airports because they have to fly somewhere, they’re in transit or they’re seeing someone off. Rarely do they come here just to hang out, but today, a group of friends and I just came to the airport for dessert. It sounded crazy, but in the end it was a good decision…

Windy Point Restaurant – Festival of Food 2013

If I was planning on proposing to a woman, one of the locations where it would possibly happen, would be at the Windy Point Restaurant. I would book a table for two, seated by the window, overlooking the city at night. Towards the end of the dinner, I would order two glasses of champagne. While…

Milkaholic

Milkaholic is a cute little dessert bar located on Edward Street, just off The Parade. Their specialty is desserts, however, they do offer a range of beverages and light snacks. Situated in a long narrow block, there is enough seating for about 40. The venue itself is very homely, but you don’t notice very much…

Nanna Hot Bake

Nanna’s Hot Bake is Central Market’s best kept secret. Specialising in Asian style sweet and savoury buns, this place makes them really good! Particularly, when they’re piping hot and straight out of the oven. For around $2, this is just small change for food that is of a high quality. Today, I ordered the Custard…

Lenzerheide

I’ve only ever heard good things about Lenzerheide. This place really sets the benchmark in fine dining, and if you’re got your heart set on that special woman in your life, this is the place to take her. We were given arguably the best seats in the house, table number 38. A table for two,…

Bakery On O’Connell

I’ve heard good things about the Bakery on O’Connell. While looking for a lunch destination, I thought it was time to check it out. Open 24 hours a day, this bakery is conveniently located at the beginning of O’Connell Street, where night time revellers can grab a bite to eat to help soften their hangovers….

The Mac Factory

No, this place doesn’t supply Apple products! The Mac Factory makes every macaron flavour under the sun, and they also do breakfasts! It’s no surprise that a place that specialises in making macarons does them so well. Firm and crispy outer shells with light fluffy fillings that melt in your mouth. Today, I came here for…

Bake A Break

It’s not uncommon to see at least one food court store sell pies, pasties, sausage rolls, cakes and coffee these days. For the Myer Centre food court, Bake A Break is the store. Today, I was intrigued by their cute little Penguin Meringues. At $3.50, these sweets are way overpriced, but they certainly make a…

Dessert Story

My mother would actually love Dessert Story. The sago and tofu puddings, the taro and bean desserts and the various jellies and ice creams are what Mum would have had when she was growing up. I’m not so sure about the bubble tea or shaved ice, as that appears to be a relatively new concept….

Creperie Bruxelles

A friend told me about Creperie Bruxelles several weeks before it opened. I could have rocked up on the first day, but I find new businesses need to find their feet, in order to show customers what they really can offer. Knowing this, I decided to wait a few weeks and let the hype die…
