I have to admire the owners of this place for their persistence and determination, especially with the second re-branding of the business. The cafe was originally Alfresco’s, specialising in Italian cuisine. The store then underwent a facelift and became Sliders on Rundle, which incorporated burgers and hot dogs to capitalise on Adelaide’s American fast food…

Panacea – Festival of Food 2014
My last visit to Panacea was nearly two years ago, and based on what I wrote at the time, the group had quite a good experience. While I had been there for a normal tapas meal, I was curious to see what they were like as part of the Festival of Food deal. For $29.50,…

Anybody that has eaten in Darwin would be familiar with the award winning Hanuman restaurant.

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.

Mestizo Cocina Peruana
Mestizo is Adelaide’s first Peruvian restaurant, and its literal translation means “mixed race” which is a reflection of its rich multicultural history. Peruvian cuisine is a culmination of local practices and ingredients, with influences from it’s indigenous population, Europe (Spanish, Italian, German), Asia (China, Japan) and West Africa. When immigrants first came to Peru, they…
Dulwich Bakery – Glenelg South
Based on the name, I would presume this bakery first started off in Dulwich. Known for their cakes, pies and pasties, they had the recipe for success, and have been able to expand to 7 stores across the state. The Glenelg South store is located towards the end of Partridge Street within a small shopping…
