James Buns

From the same people that brought you Moodle and Asian Puzzle Canteen, now bring you James Buns. I’ve seen businesses perform a re-branding, but rarely have I seen it done twice within a short space of time. I admire their persistence and think it’s a clever way to get me to visit their establishment on…

Pera Kahve

I’ve noticed that most of the eateries down Jetty Road are concentrated towards the western end. It was my desperate search for food that lead me to Pera Kahve as there wasn’t much else near by. Pera Kahve is open for breakfast and lunch and offers a unique selection of Turkish dishes, as well as…

Glenelg Burger Bar

When we thought we’d seen enough burger joints in Adelaide, another one pops up. While there are other places that offer burgers near by, Glenelg Burger Bar is the only place dedicated to burgers along Jetty Road. What makes this place different to the others? The meat is marinated using Middle Eastern herbs and spices….

Botanic Gardens Restaurant – Festival of Food 2014

It’s almost 12 months to the day since I last ate at the Botanic Gardens Restaurant. I don’t normally visit the same restaurant twice, but if my past experience was favourable, I don’t mind coming back and ordering something else. Of course, this is the second year in a row that we’ve come here with…

The Little Cake Tin

I find the food truck concept very appealing, especially when you have a variety of food products that can be prepared on or off site and then sold on the day. There’s no rental costs, the utilities would be cheaper and you can move your business to different locations. The Little Cake Tin is one…

Clay and Coal

I have a habit of knowing what I’ll be ordering when it comes to certain cuisines, and Indian food is no different. Clay and Coal is located on Goodwood Road in Cumberland Park amongst other popular eateries. There’s a decent selection of dishes on offer with all your western favourites. They do have a selection…

The Stranded Store

Not only is the southern part of Goodwood Road becoming a bit a food hub, the inside streets even have their own trendy little cafes. Locals may be familiar with The Stranded Store, but if you’re a visitor to the area, you’ll need to look up the address on a map. This quaint little store…

Spill the Beans

If it wasn’t for social media, I would have no idea that Spill the Beans existed. I’ve been following this place on Instagram for many months now and it’s always been on my list of places to visit. Spill the Beans is located on what you would describe as a “collector” road out in Linden…

Nico Cafe

A friend had recently told me that a new Japanese cafe had opened up around the corner from the Adelaide Central Bus Station. Keen to see what they’re all about, I made my way to the new establishment. The frontage is unique in appearance with numerous thin timber slats blocking the brunt of the northerly…

Ryo’s Noodles

Ryo’s Noodles is a Japanese ramen franchise that has stores in Sydney, Jakarta and Hong Kong. The latest store to open it’s doors is on Gouger Street, amongst all the other Asian eateries. According to my Japanese sources, this is the place to go for authentic Tokyo style ramen. There are exactly 33 items on…
