The competition for the dessert dollar is certainly getting tough down Rundle Street with the opening of Mazzoni Gelato down the eastern end. The point of difference at this place is that they offer biodynamic artisan gelato, with “biodynamic” referring to the method of organic farming that holistically views the farm as a self nourishing…

Burger Club – Henley Beach
It seems to be a trend at the moment for established burger joints to open up additional stores. The first Burger Club store was opened in Mawson Lakes, but since then the store has been franchised and a further two stores have been opened, one in Henley Beach and the other in Kilburn. For those…
The Family Bakery
There’s definitely a lack of Vietnamese roll shops along the beach side suburbs, however, if you’re down the Henley Beach way, The Family Bakery has all your bases covered. It’s only natural that a Vietnamese bakery progresses into selling meat filled Vietnamese rolls because they’re already making the bread. Of course, if you’re feeling like…
Electra House – Launch Party
Adelaide Food Central was invited to the launch party of Electra House. All food and drinks were provided free of charge. Like many of the side streets around the Adelaide CBD, our main thoroughfare, King William Street, is also being revitalised. Electra House is set in an early 1900’s building and has undergone a $10…
Spargo’s
Spargo’s is located on the second level of the Westfield Marion shopping complex and has been around for as long as I can remember.

Fat Chicken – Plympton
Every suburb in Adelaide has at least one local Chicken shop. For Plympton, it’s the Fat Chicken franchise, which is located in a small complex on Anzac Highway.

Bononia
There’s nothing like a refreshingly cold gelato on a warm Summer day. While walking down Melbourne Street and in need for some relief from the heat, I came across Bononia, a small gelato store. As their name suggests, gelato is their specialty and there are a fair few flavours to choose from. They also have…
Chickens on Diagonal
Every suburb in Adelaide has at least one local Chicken shop. For Warradale, it’s Chickens on Diagonal, which is located in a small complex on Diagonal Road. The menu is fairly stock standard with chickens, burgers, seafood, salads and hot packs. The chicken shop is fairly neat and well presented. One interesting point about this…
The Jungle Restaurant
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…
Bar Torino
From the son and daughter of the owners of Chianti Classico comes Bar Torino, a new vermouth and tapas bar which is located right next door to the successful and acclaimed establishment. Bringing the best of both Italian and Spanish cuisine, the menu offers a selection of snacks, cured meats, tapas dishes, larger dishes, sweets…
