I’m a regular at the German Club when it comes to Oktoberfest celebrations. Having been to Germany late last year, I am impressed that certain parts of the venue have been decked out similarly to what you find over there. Every Friday night in October, the place is packed to capacity. The beer and cider…

Il Tempo – Melbourne
Prior to our group flying into Melbourne, we already had an itinerary of all the places we wanted to eat. Some of these places didn’t accept bookings and it was down to luck as to whether we’d get a seat. As we wandered out for breakfast, we discovered we had missed out on our preferred…
Nano
If you’re going to rate this place based on the number of people that come here, it gets 5 stars without much thought. I’ve walked past this place so many times, at different hours of the day, and it’s always busy. This place does a roaring trade and they’re certainly doing something right. Having already…
Saints Pizza Deliveries
My oh my! This place makes really good pizza! I’m usually a bit reluctant to pay too much for gourmet pizza because I know there are cheaper alternatives. Compared to your pizza chains, I’m paying double for a 12 inch pizza. Having said that, this pizza tasted 10 times better, so it was all worth…
The Original Yiros House
If I am partying down Rundle Street, the Yiros House would be my stop off at 3am in the morning. There’s nothing like a Yiros for a hangover cure. Mind you, the food tastes a lot better when you’re completely drunk than when you’re semi drunk. Last night, I ordered their Lamb Yiros. Their pita…
Blue Lemon
On my way to a big drinking session at the Adelaide Wine Centre, I stumble (no, I wasn’t drunk yet!) onto Blue Lemon who offer a traditional selection of baguettes. Conveniently located across the road from Adelaide University, a lot of their clientele are university students. Today, I ordered their Smoked Salmon Baguette. It was…
Hahndorf German Arms Hotel
Every time I’m up in Hahndorf, I usually eat at the Hahndorf Inn, but after my first visit to the German Arms, I was pleasantly surprised. The venue is considerably spacious, and the decor is traditional with good use of timber. Adjacent tables are a good distance apart, and the dining space over different levels…
Cafe Di Mare
I’ve had some ordinary meals at the Grand Chancellor Hotel on Hindley, so when we came to Cafe Di Mare, which is inside the Grand Chancellor Hotel on Currie Street, I had very little expectation. The literal translation of Cafe Di Mare from Italian is “Cafe of the Sea”. Not surprisingly, seafood dishes make up…
Delectaballs
For the past month now, Mr Darcy has been flashing his balls around Adelaide. Delectaballs is Adelaide’s only meatball food truck. The truck itself, also known as Mr Darcy, likes to put all sorts of toppings and flavours on his balls, for everyone to wrap their lips around. Mr Darcy’s balls are nice and big,…
Pizza E Mozzarella Bar
They say if you want to properly review a place, you need to go there several times and try all of their dishes. For me, I don’t have the time or money to revisit every single place in Adelaide. Funnily enough, almost 11 months to the day, I find myself at Pizza E Mozzarella for…
