With so many restaurants and cafes in Adelaide, and the constant flow of new ones opening, one can get away with not visiting the same place twice. Of course, if my last dining experience was a memorable positive experience, there is really no hesitation with a revisit. That’s how I feel with Thai Chef. As…

Da Won Waffle & Coffee
Da Won is a small cafe located on a side street in Hindmarsh. Literally translated from Korean it means “Tea House” but also has a double meaning in a different Asian language. While the name of this place promotes coffee and waffles, I think the items of interest on their menu are their homestyle Korean…
Olea
Located on level one of the historic Electra House, Olea provides a modern take on traditional Greek cuisine. With ingredients imported from Greece and South Australia’s best produce, diners get to experience flavours that are Mediterranean based. Like most eateries around these days, sharing in the form of tapas is encouraged. The menu is simple…
Zu Zu Mamou
Zu Zu Mamou is a pop up cajun and creole restaurant and bar that is open for the duration of the Fringe. The place is named after a song sung by the New Orleans R&B artist Dr John. For a pop up restaurant, the variety is good. There is a selection of 10 creole tasters,…
Mazzoni Gelato
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. As far as the food goes, there is a basic breakfast menu that goes till 11:30am. From 11am, there is a selection of salads, wood fired pizzas, pastas, foccacias, piadinas, schiacciatas….
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. The menu is fairly stock standard with chickens, burgers, seafood, salads and hot packs. The chicken shop is more spacious than some of the others. It has…
