Benevento Wood Oven Pizzeria

Benevento used to be located down Henley Beach Road, until that particular store was bought out by a former employee and renamed “Nostra Casa”. Benevento then reopened on Port Road, however, both pizza stores have an almost identical pizza menu. Having dined at Nostra Casa recently, I already had a good idea of what to…

Devour Cafe Patisserie

Devour are like pioneers on the dessert scene as they were one of the first to open up a dessert bar in Adelaide. Branching off on their success is the Devour Cafe Patisserie which is located in the back streets of Richmond. As a cafe, there is a small selection of food offerings for both…

The Little Hunter

The Little Hunter is a new steak and ale bar located down a small side street next to the Playford Hotel. There was a restaurant with the same name in Melbourne that shut down late last year, but I’m not sure that they’re related. As their signage suggests, steak is what they specialise in, with…

Chicken Time – Norwood

Chicken Time has been around for over 23 years and has three stores in Adelaide. The Norwood store is located on the western side of The Parade and is situated on a nice corner position opposite Norwood oval. The store specialises in the use of Ingham free range chickens, however, they also offer your traditional…

The Maylands Hotel

The Maylands Hotel is located deep within a side street in a popular outer fringe eastern suburb. I’ve actually eaten here many moons ago, and have fond memories of the experience. The place has undergone renovations since my last visit, and I must say the venue looks modern and elegant. There’s a decent selection of…

Set in a gracious Victorian villa, customers are brought back in time with elegant dining rooms and a gorgeous marble fireplace.

Dorsal Fin Cafe

Dorsal Fin is a new cafe located upstairs in City Cross Arcade and occupies the premises where Billy Baxter’s once was. The establishment is neat and well presented, and although there no natural light coming into the place, the floor to ceiling windows does make the place feel less enclosed. One of the main walls…

The Bowery Kitchen & Grocer

Rebranding of businesses seems to be going on a lot lately, whether it be due to a change of owners or just to reinvigorate interest in an existing business. The place used to be called the “Wave Gourmet Cafe and Bar” but is now known as “The Bowery Kitchen and Grocer”. It’s still a supermarket,…

Roll’N On Bower

I’ve read good things about Roll’N on Bower, and it was my mission to have a Vietnamese roll here if I was ever in the area. The store itself is small with a handful of seats, but the place does have a warm and cosy vibe about it. The food offerings here aren’t extensive but…

Yu Feng Tai

Yu Feng Tai is a small eatery in the Renaissance Arcade food court. While many of the businesses come in the form of stalls with shared seating, this place has it’s own store with seating downstairs, upstairs and in the food court area. Their offerings include Shanghai buns and a selection of Taiwanese dishes. For…
