Kaffana

As Australians, we’re very lucky to live in a multicultural society, particularly when it comes to food. There are so many different cuisines right at our door step. Kaffana is a new Serbian restaurant that has opened up on the revitalised Peel Street in the CBD. The owners of this place previously ran the well…

Ambassadors Hotel

Ambassadors Hotel is located right in the heart of the Adelaide CBD on King William Street. The building has a lot of old world charm about it with some things looking like they are in their original condition. Today, we decided to dine in the bar area which is at the back of the building….

Illy’s Cafe

I often wonder whether businesses change their name in order to attract new customers, particularly when the menu is still the same. They haven’t completely changed though as the menu board inside still bears the previous name. Illy’s Cafe, formerly known as Falafel Stop, is located close to the corner of Gouger Street and Morphett…

Pasticceria Reggina

Pasticceria Reggina is a small little patisserie on Grange Road in Seaton. While it doesn’t look like much from the outside, the inside is filled with cabinets full of cakes and biscuits. There are so many choices, you’ll be scratching your head as to what to have. Some of their products are gluten free and…

Scuzzi

Try not to get “Scuzzi” in North Adelaide confused with “Scoozi” on Rundle Street. They are two different places. Scuzzi is located on the corner of O’Connell Street and Tynte Street amongst other nearby Italian eateries. This place has certainly been around for a while as I remember coming here when I was back at…

Gusto on Hutt

Based on the name, one would presume that Gusto on Hutt and Gusto in Norwood are the same restaurant in different locations. The waitress that I spoke to assured me that the restaurants are their own separate entities with different owners who just happen to be friends. While both places serve Italian cuisine, I was…

Il Mondo Caffe Bar

With the introduction of the small bar legislation, locals are really spoilt for choice when it comes to going out for drinks. Located in the James Place alleyway is Il Mondo which translated from Italian means “The World”. This represents the time the owner spent overseas travelling the world as shown by the world map…

Chiaro Bar

Chiaro Bar is located on Waymouth Street close to Light Square. I’ve only ever been to this place at night when it’s a nightclub, so the venue looked vaguely familiar without the beer goggles on. There are plenty of seating options available with bar stools, booths and normal tables. The decor is modern and well…

Tasca Viva

Tasca Viva is conveniently located metres away from Glenelg Beach. I must admit I was a bit hesitant about coming here due to mixed reviews but a friend of mine told me it was one of her favourite tapas places.  The menu essentially consists of small tapas dishes and larger options to share. The decor…

Borsa Pasta Cucina

Borsa Pasta Cucina is a relatively new place located in Grenfell Plaza. The decor of this place is very old school, however, it is slightly modernised by its open kitchen area and exposed ceilings. The menu is made up of 13 simple pasta dishes, 10 antipasto and several mains. Their dry pasta is imported from…
