If the reviews about The Jungle are anything to go by, we were going to have a poor dining experience. With that in the back of our minds, we came here with low expectations. The Jungle specialises in Churrasco BBQ, where cuts of meat are placed on swords and then cooked over charcoal. The meat…

Hogs Breath Cafe – Glenelg
Having been to many Hog’s Breath Cafes around the country, no two stores are the same when it comes to the execution of the meals. I’ve known for some time that the Glenelg store is one of the better ones in Adelaide. This place even has beach views if you look out the balcony and…
Glasshouse Hotel
The Marquis used to be one of my favourite French restaurants, but most recently, the venue had been renovated and rebranded to become The Glasshouse Hotel. It’s not a hotel by the way, so don’t think you can sleep there overnight. In line with the name change, the menu has also been revamped with a…
Glenelg BBQ Inn
The Glenelg BBQ Inn is a steakhouse that has been around for over 50 years. As you walk in, you can see the premium cuts of meat behind the front counter refridgerator, and at the rear, there are sizzling meats cooking away on the charcoal grill. The menu is simple and straight forward, offering a…
Stumps Bar & Kitchen
My friend and I had just finished dinner and we were wandering aimlessly down King William Road looking for a venue that served dessert and coffee. The place also had to have a flat screen TV so that she could keep up with the football scores. She’s a huge Port Adelaide supporter and didn’t want…
The Little Hunter
The Little Hunter is a new steak and ale bar located down a small side street next to the Playford Hotel. There was a restaurant with the same name in Melbourne that shut down late last year, but I’m not sure that they’re related. As their signage suggests, steak is what they specialise in, with…
The Maylands Hotel
The Maylands Hotel is located deep within a side street in a popular outer fringe eastern suburb. I’ve actually eaten here many moons ago, and have fond memories of the experience. The place has undergone renovations since my last visit, and I must say the venue looks modern and elegant. There’s a decent selection of…
Fire On Unley
Latin American cuisine seems to be all the craze at the moment with one of the newer stores being Fire On Unley. Located on the popular Unley Road cafe precinct, this restaurant specialises in Argentinian cuisine as well as wood fired pizza. The first thing that strikes you about this place is the stylish and…
La Boca Bar and Grill
I just happened to be walking to a birthday party at The Stamford last week when I was distracted by the wonderful smells of barbecued meats coming from La Boca. In the same location that was formerly Swish, is a newly opened Argentinian restaurant that specialises in cooking meats over the asador (fire pit). The…
Pigs On Fire
Vegetarians look away! There’s a Dutch pop-up BBQ called Pigs On Fire that makes it’s appearance at the Garden of Unearthly Delights only once a year. The BBQ is something to marvelled at. It’s constructed from timber logs and iron grates built in the form of a teepee. Just about every part of the pig…
