Pigs On Fire

Vegetarians look away! There’s a Dutch pop-up BBQ called Pigs On Fire that makes it’s appearance at the Garden of Unearthly Delights only once a year. The BBQ is something to marvelled at. It’s constructed from timber logs and  iron grates built in the form of a teepee. Just about every part of the pig…

La Vita Ristorante

I’ve driven past this place so many times and I always notice that their carpark is full. I took this as a good sign and it became one of my places to check out. The venue itself is deceptively large. From the street frontage, the place looks small, but when you walk into the place,…

Lamb Spit BBQ – Semaphore

I’m already familiar with Lamb Spit BBQ as they have a store in the Central Markets. Located on Semaphore Road, literally metres away from the beach, I think this place is in a much better location, although, they are located next door to the number one fish and chip shop in Adelaide. The venue is…

Cafe Ivy

Set amongst all the other Italian cafes down The Parade is Cafe Ivy. With mediterranean inspired mains, pastas, salads and pizzas, the menu is very stock standard one. The decor is contemporary and casual with the use of browns prominent throughout. With it’s prime corner position, there is plenty of seating both inside and outside…

Borsch Cafe is located on King William Street in the law precinct just outside Victoria Square. They’re open for breakfast and lunch during the week, and in the evening on Friday night. They’re specialty is Polish cuisine with a modern twist, and they utilise fresh local ingredients to give them that edge. The decor is…

Jam The Bistro

Located away from the hustle and bustle of the Chinatown precinct is Jam The Bistro. The venue is very quaint with a small number of seats available both inside and out. The decor is modern and contemporary with some nice flashy light fittings. Certain parts of the bistro feel a bit cluttered, and the indoor…

Ambient

Ambient is perfectly located on Moseley Square and is only metres away from Glenelg Jetty. Open practically from morning till night everyday, the location alone is good enough to give this place a steady turnover of customers. The decor is modern and funky with bold red walls and stylish polished concrete floors. Barrels and bamboo…

Alfonso’s Continental

Alfonso’s Continental is located down the popular Hutt Street precinct and has a reputation for serving up delicious breakfasts. I must say that their other meal options aren’t too shabby either. With pizzas, pastas, risottos and all your other Italian favourites, there really is something for everyone here. The inside looks deceptively small but you…

Wine Underground

After reading all the negative reviews of this place, I came here with little expectation and was pleasantly surprised. Wine Underground is located towards the centre of Pirie Street in a nice modern building (it used to be in an old building that exploded and was then redeveloped). The decor is sleek and stylish with…

Earth’s Kitchen

Right at this very address used to be one of my favourite Italian restaurants. It’s replacement, Earth’s Kitchen, just made things a whole lot healthier. Located on the corner of Pirie and Hyde Street, this place prides itself on everything fresh, local, organic and gluten free. The menu isn’t too overly complicated with a selection…
