It’s been 18 months since my last visit to Patisserie Jin. We just had an unsatisfying meal at a nearby restaurant, and thought we would fill ourselves up by paying this place a visit. A glance of the menu indicated nothing much had changed in terms of their dessert offerings. There’s the fondant, apple tartin,…

Esplanade Hotel
The Esplanade Hotel, better known as the Espy, is located opposite the jetty on the picturesque shores of Brighton beach. As far as dining goes, there is a cafe on the ground level and a bistro upstairs towards one side. Today, I decided to eat at the cafe as it had better lighting for the…
Cheesy Street
There was a time when I wouldn’t even contemplate paying $10 for a cheese toastie, merely because they’re so simple to make. I’ve even been to an upmarket place that flogs them off for $20 a pop, so I guess there are people out there that have more dollars than sense. Cheese toasties are becoming…

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…

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….
