Taste of the Himalayas

If I was doing this review a few years back, it would have been difficult because there were few Himalayan restaurants around. These days, there are about half a dozen in Adelaide serving similar dishes, so it’s a lot easier to get a gauge of what’s good and what’s not. Taste of the Himalayas has…

Seaview Chicken and Fish

Some people who read this blog have commented on why I even bother reviewing a Chicken or Fish & Chip shop. Top fish and chip shops such as Sotos and Stunned Mullet have been reviewed so it’s only fair to check out what other places have to offer. In this case, when it comes to…

Ginza Miyako – New Autumn Menu

Adelaide Food Central was invited to sample Ginza Miyako’s new Autumn menu. All food and drinks were provided free of charge. Having been open for less than a year, Ginza Miyako continues to re-invent itself with an exciting new Autumn menu. At the helm of the kitchen, is head chef Kazuki Ushiro, who combines fresh…

A Little Splodge of Coffee

When it comes to Food Blogging I often like to try new places and see what they have to offer. With most of the main restaurants covered, I often find myself at small little suburban cafes. Today, I stumbled across A Little Splodge of Coffee. What appears to be a typical cafe on the outside…

Nghi Ngan Quan

People have been raving on about how good Nghi Ngan Quan (NNQ) is for years, but after an average experience at Little NNQ, I was in no rush to see what all the fuss was about. Fast forward 12 months and there’s been a lot of hype in the media about NNQ moving to their…

Mediterranean Mezza

Before I visit a place, I like to read about the experiences of others, particularly on Urbanspoon. Past customers seem to be divided as they either loved it or hated it. I’ve actually been to Mediterranean Mezza for an event but didn’t actually try any of their food. One thing in their favour was that…

Singma Delights

Singma Delights is a small take away store located in the Renaissance Arcade food court. Specialising in Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine, this place offers all your classic noodle, rice and soup dishes. Some of my favourites include the Hainan Chicken Rice, Laksa and the Fried Kway Teow. For lunch, I ordered the Fried Kway Teow…

Nazar Cafe

When you’re out drinking at some of the trendy bars in the Central Market precinct, there’s often a need to grab some hangover food on the way home. One of the few places that does offer food late at night is Nazar Cafe (formerly known as Illy’s Cafe, and before that, Falafel Stop). The menu…

Hyde Park Tavern

When you head down the King William Road cafe precinct, you’re really spoilt for choice when it comes to dining destinations. Of course, as someone who’s already been to most places down the street, looking for somewhere new can be a tad difficult. Today, I find myself at the Hyde Park Tavern, a place that…

Sunny Side Up Cafe

Sunny Side Up is a typical suburban cafe located in a small shopping complex on the corner of Oaklands and Diagonal Roads. Open only on weekdays, they offer an all day breakfast, burgers, salads, hot packs, hot dogs and pizza platters. For lunch, I ordered the Steak Sandwich which was ready after a 10 minute…
