By definition, a Commissary is a cafe in a movie studio, but it’s also the name of an exciting new restaurant just outside the city. Located on the ground floor of a high rise apartment complex on Fullarton Road, this swanky new business offers modern Australian food with some inspiration from the owner’s Greek and…

Tigris Take Away
In the last couple of years, the business names at this location have changed so often, I’ve found it difficult to keep up. The latest business to open its doors here is Tigris Take Away, a middle eastern fast food outlet serving up chickens, burgers, yiros, seafood and salads. These offerings are all very similar…
In N Out BBQ
For a very long time, there have been two take away stores on O’Connell Street that are favourite hangout spots amongst university students, particularly after a late night drinking session. Competition in the area has just heated up with the opening of In N Out BBQ which specialises in a range of charcoaled meats. The…
Levant Eatery – Hindley St
You know how you hear “Hindley Street” and instantly feel a shiver down your spine? I, for one, have always actively avoided walking down this infamous street for its notorious status. However, upon walking from the other end (not from Rundle Mall side), I was pleasantly surprised at how different the street is and how…
Houda’s Kitchen – Opening Launch
Have you ever been to a restaurant and automatically you feel like you’re part of the family? Sincere greetings, no hands without a drink and staff that aren’t afraid of telling you they’re nervous about the big media night. Houda’s Kitchen; a Mediterranean and Lebanese eatery located in Hindmarsh was the perfect reminder that most…

This new restaurant, which opened its doors on Thursday on Port Rd in Hindmarsh, specialises in Mediterranean and Lebanese cuisines.

Rumi Palace – Revisit
Typically my first visit to a restaurant is when it first opens and during that time, they’re still settling in and sorting out any teething problems. It’s not uncommon for an average experience, but from what I recall, it was quite good. 6 months later, Adelaide Food Central was invited back to the restaurant to…
Afghan Sunrise Charcoal Kebab
Right after Vietnamese food, Afghan eateries are also popping up all over the place. At the same location that was once two different fish and chip shops comes something that is a bit more unique to the area. Customers get to choose from kebabs, skewers, chicken, biryani, falafel and other authentic dishes. Have no fear,…
The Middle Store
Eating out every night rarely gives me the opportunity to switch on the television. I felt slightly embarrassed when I met Rose from Masterchef fame and failed to recognise her. Even more embarrassing, I got her mixed up with her sister, with whom I met the previous week. The Middle Store is a quaint little…
Mado
The last two businesses at this exact same location were kebab shops so it was no surprise that Mado was one as well. Located close to the middle of Gouger Street, this place offers a selection of dips, char grilled kebabs, salads and yiros. Almost perfect for the late night crowd looking for a hangover…
