Opening for its third weekend in The Market Shed on Holland is The Travelling Greek. Set up as a small stall towards the rear, this place offers a small selection of hot meals, salads, sweets and savoury products. The Vegetarian Mezze Plate was of interest as you get a bit of everything, however, there is…

Olea
Located on level one of the historic Electra House, Olea provides a modern take on traditional Greek cuisine. With ingredients imported from Greece and South Australia’s best produce, diners get to experience flavours that are Mediterranean based. Like most eateries around these days, sharing in the form of tapas is encouraged. The menu is simple…
Electra House – Launch Party
Adelaide Food Central was invited to the launch party of Electra House. All food and drinks were provided free of charge. Like many of the side streets around the Adelaide CBD, our main thoroughfare, King William Street, is also being revitalised. Electra House is set in an early 1900’s building and has undergone a $10…
Spargo’s
Spargo’s is located on the second level of the Westfield Marion shopping complex and has been around for as long as I can remember. As far as the food goes, there is a basic breakfast menu that goes till 11:30am. From 11am, there is a selection of salads, wood fired pizzas, pastas, foccacias, piadinas, schiacciatas….
Bar Torino
From the son and daughter of the owners of Chianti Classico comes Bar Torino, a new vermouth and tapas bar which is located right next door to the successful and acclaimed establishment. Bringing the best of both Italian and Spanish cuisine, the menu offers a selection of snacks, cured meats, tapas dishes, larger dishes, sweets…
De Corso’s Pizzeria
It was only through the power of social media that I became aware of the existence of De Corso’s. It’s a local suburban pizza bar within a small complex in Tranmere. With dine in specials 3 nights a week, we chose to visit on a Thursday night where they had “all you can eat” traditional…
Verve Bar & Kitchen
Verve Bar & Kitchen is located on the second floor of Westfield Marion Shopping Centre just below the cinema complex and is surrounded by other eateries. The menu consists of some simple breakfast and lunch options and then the rest is categorised into bruschetta, pizza, burgers, pasta and mains. I thought the decor was modern,…
Villa 77
Unlike many of the other eateries down Unley Road, Villa 77 is a Spanish tapas restaurant located in a converted character home. The menu is short and sweet with 8 tapas dishes, paella and cured meats. They also have a small selection of desserts made up of churros, helados and flan. The one thing you…
Schnithouse – Adelaide
What was once Alfresco on Rundle, and Sliders on Rundle, is now the Schnit House. Having made many first day appearances at this address, I was a bit skeptical as to whether this place would be any good. Gourmet schnitzels are nothing new as a place called House of Schnitzel already has a similar concept….
MP3 Cafe
I must admit I was a bit reluctant about visiting MP3 due to the number of negative reviews. My past experience also suggests that a place that does “international” cuisine usually produces average food all round. Anyway, the only to find out whether this place was any good was to actually go there myself, albeit…
