Seacliff Beach Hotel

About a decade ago, the Seacliff used to be my usual hangout for drinks on a Friday night. I used to live a few suburbs away and I had friends that lived in the area. Of course, things change and so do people’s circumstances, and I found myself not frequenting this place anymore. Fast forward…

Umi Sushi – Glenelg

Umi Sushi is a franchise that started back in 2006 with a handful of stores both here in South Australia and New South Wales. The Glenelg store is located inside the Bayside Village Shopping Centre, and with it’s small open plan kitchen area, it offers just over a dozen seats for customers to dine in….

Schnithouse – Adelaide

What was once Alfresco on Rundle, and Sliders on Rundle, is now the Schnit House. Having made many first day appearances at this address, I was a bit skeptical as to whether this place would be any good. Gourmet schnitzels are nothing new as a place called House of Schnitzel already has a similar concept….

Ben and Jerry’s

Since last year, Ben & Jerry’s ice cream has been readily available from Adelaide supermarkets. It’s only recently that Adelaide’s first scoop shop opened, and the sixth such store to open in a Hoyts cinema complex. How does Ben & Jerry’s differ from other ice cream places? I’d have to say it’s their creative inventive…

MP3 Cafe

I must admit I was a bit reluctant about visiting MP3 due to the number of negative reviews. My past experience also suggests that a place that does “international” cuisine usually produces average food all round. Anyway, the only to find out whether this place was any good was to actually go there myself, albeit…

Kenny Wang’s

From the same owners as the Wright Street Hotel, is a new pop up bar right next to it called Kenny Wang’s. Anybody that has eaten at the hotel would be familiar with the quality of their meals, and with Kenny Wang’s modern Asian inspired small plates menu, one should expect a similar standard. From…

Sushi Q Restaurant

Adelaide certainly has it’s fair share of sushi train style eateries, and for most of them, the dishes are pretty much the same. At Sushi Q Restaurant, there are 4 coloured dishes with varying prices, but what brought me here this Sunday morning were their amazing $2 plate deals between 11am and 2pm. Other places…
