With fond memories of my previous visit to Red Ochre, I almost jumped at the opportunity to eat here again. Just as we did last year, we were armed with the Festival of Food voucher. For $34.50 (Monday to Thursday), each person was entitled to an entree tasting plate, a main course (or select an…

The Mile End Hotel
The Mile End Hotel is located just outside the city on Henley Beach Road. I had organised for a group of 40 to have dinner here and was surprised to easily get seating after a last minute booking. Either this place was large and could easily accommodate, or this pub just isn’t that good. There…
Thyme
Thyme is located on the north western side of Victoria Square amongst other popular eateries. The breakfast offerings look fairly standard with over a dozen options, while the lunch menu is a combination of pub and Mediterranean inspired. Set in a long skinny floor plan, the decor is neat and well presented with artworks for…

Windy Point Cafe – Festival of Food 2014

Botanic Gardens Restaurant – Festival of Food 2014
It’s almost 12 months to the day since I last ate at the Botanic Gardens Restaurant. I don’t normally visit the same restaurant twice, but if my past experience was favourable, I don’t mind coming back and ordering something else. Of course, this is the second year in a row that we’ve come here with…
The Stranded Store
Not only is the southern part of Goodwood Road becoming a bit a food hub, the inside streets even have their own trendy little cafes. Locals may be familiar with The Stranded Store, but if you’re a visitor to the area, you’ll need to look up the address on a map. This quaint little store…
Whipped Bake Bar Cafe
I have a dear friend who works till the early hours of the morning and lives by the beach. When we catch up for lunch, it’s her first meal of the day and she usually wants something a bit light. Knowing this, I pick a place that serves an all day breakfast, as well as…
