If you want Russian cuisine, you basically have to be Russian to get it in Adelaide. Taldy-Kurgan bucks the trend and is one of the few places that offers Russian street food. Their most popular menu item, the piroshki, is a fried yeast bun with filling in it. I ordered two varieties, the Spinach and Ricotta Piroshki,…

Lucia’s
Apparently Lucia’s is an Adelaide institution. Located in the Central Markets, this place has been around for over half a century. I’ve seen this place packed every time I’ve walked past, so it’s obvious that they’re doing something right. The decor probably hasn’t changed since it first opened, and the atmosphere is relaxed. The staff…
Public
On a street not known for it’s cafes, Adelaide’s newest eatery has just opened its doors. Public on Franklin is run by a husband and wife team and has been six months in the making. Located on the ground floor of a newly developed office block on Flinders Street, this store offers food with a…
Lamb Spit BBQ – Central Market
Lamb Spit BBQ is a little takeaway store located outside the Central Market Plaza food court. The store mainly sells Yiros but also offers other items you would find at a local fish and chip shop. The staff were friendly and the service was good. Today, I ordered the Lamb and Chicken Yiros Plate. As…
Barendoe
Barendoe is a small little Italian restaurant just off Hutt Street. We came here in a group of 30 and took up most of the place. The restaurant is modernly decorated and offers tapas as well as your traditional Italian dishes. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about their menu offerings. Tonight, I ordered the…
La Trattoria
I find it annoying that most restaurants close their kitchens by about 9pm. La Trattoria is one of the few restaurants in Adelaide that buck this trend. Located on King William Street, this restaurant offers all your traditional Italian favourites. This family run business has staff that are warm and inviting. The service here is…
The Marquis
Wow! The Marquis is an elegant and stylish restaurant. Located towards the eastern end of Gouger Street, everything about this place just oozes style and substance. The restaurant is essentially a glass box where one half is a bar and the other half is the dining area. The main areas are divided by book cases…
Good Life Pizza – Adelaide
Good Life pizza’s are good because they’re organic and the ingredients they use are locally sourced! The Hutt Street store is located in a blue stone cottage in the busy cafe precinct. The inside dining area is a bit small and is rustically decorated. The outdoor dining area is not bad either, particularly on a…
The Greek On Halifax
There are many good Greek restaurants in Adelaide and this is one of them! Located on Halifax street, this place offers all your traditional Greek favourites as well as a few modern ones. This place is so busy that it pays to book ahead. The staff were warm and inviting and escorted a dozen of…
Scoozi Caffe Bar
I’ve been to this place so many times and every time I’ve been here it’s always been busy so they must be doing something right! On my most recent visit, I came to the restaurant with about a dozen people. We selected this place because we knew we would get seats on a busy Friday…
