Bambi’s Kitchen

Having been here 5 months ago when it was Horner & Pratt, I only recently discovered that Horner had moved on, and this place had since been renamed Bambi’s Kitchen. With the exception of the signage, everything still remains the same, which includes their delicious menu. For lunch, I ordered the Pulled Pork Wrap. The…

Burger Club is one of the last recognised burger joints in Adelaide that I’ve yet to visit, until today. Located way up north at the entrance of Mawson Lakes Shopping Centre, this place offers a dozen different burgers distinguished by country (this excludes their temporary special burgers). Strictly speaking, if you’re going to organise by…
