Okay – if you want a seriously great dining experience, take the drive to Leonard’s Mill in Second Valley, SA. This food is not only up there with the best I’ve eaten in South Australia, it’s some of the best I’ve had in my travels around the country. Owners Jane Mitchell and Alan Greig have…

Windy Point Cafe – Festival of Food 2015
Located just below the Windy Point Restaurant is the more casual Windy Point Cafe. The menu is different and so is the decor, but you still have the spectacular views of the city. Part of the Festival of Food deal is to visit all eight participating restaurants in order to redeem a $100 bonus off…
Ellen Street Restaurant
Ellen Street Restaurant has been open for about a year and half now – so why didn’t I find out about it until a few weeks ago!? Never mind – better late than never – and what a find! Tom Boden sure can cook! You’ll fine Ellen Street at Maxwell Wines on the rise of…
Kristian’s Kitchen
It’s not uncommon for a business to undergo re-branding in order to change their fortunes. The owners of the former Ambient have done just that by renaming themselves to Kristian’s Kitchen. The former was a restaurant and I was told that that put customers off, so they’ve now opted for a more casual setting. There…
Windy Point Restaurant – Festival of Food 2015 – Revisit
After a not so perfect evening a fortnight ago, Adelaide Food Central was invited back to Windy Point Restaurant for the re-creation of the experience. Once again, it was the Festival of Food journey with the Entree Tasting Plate, a main course of our choice and the Petit Fours. The House-made Ciabatta was so much…
River Cafe – Festival of Food 2015
I usually make an effort to visit every participating Festival of Food establishment each year, but it’s nearly two years since my last visit to the River Cafe. With the introduction of the smartphone application, we’ve been given a lot more time to visit each restaurant, as compared to the leaflet which had to be…
Juniper and Pine
Just 3 weeks old, Juniper and Pine is the latest cafe and restaurant to open it’s doors in the seaside suburb of Brighton. Like most new places these days, the focus is on using fresh locally sourced ingredients. With the breakfast menu on hand, I counted 15 items on offer, most of them fairly standard….
Gully Public House & Garden – Winter Menu Launch
There’s no better excitement than the discovery of a fabulous new dining and drinking location somewhere where you’d least expect it. Tea Tree Gully is a little way off my usual beaten track, but with offerings like The Gully Public House and Beer Garden I will be sure to venture from my usual CBD locations…
Windy Point Restaurant – Festival of Food 2015
One of my favourite restaurants in Adelaide is Windy Point. Not only does this place boast breathtaking views across the city, the atmosphere, quality of food and service has always been exceptional during my previous visits. For me, this place sets the benchmark by which I compare other restaurants and I always come here with…
