Illy’s Cafe
I often wonder whether businesses change their name in order to attract new customers, particularly when the menu is still the same. They haven’t completely changed though as the menu board inside still bears the previous name. Illy’s Cafe, formerly known as Falafel Stop, is located close to the corner of Gouger Street and Morphett…
Betel Leaf Cafe
I’ve read that Betel Leaf Cafe makes one of the best Roast Pork Rolls in Adelaide, and today, I was here to find out for myself. Betel Leaf Cafe is located on Grange Road in Seaton. The venue looks deceptively small, however it has the capacity to comfortably seat 40. The decor is modern and…
Pasticceria Reggina

Bobo H is a rather odd name for a restaurant, however, it stands for Bourgeois Bohemian. It’s the merging of two classes; the elegance and charm of the Bourgeois upper class and the passion and artistic flair of Bohemian culture.

Scuzzi
Try not to get “Scuzzi” in North Adelaide confused with “Scoozi” on Rundle Street. They are two different places. Scuzzi is located on the corner of O’Connell Street and Tynte Street amongst other nearby Italian eateries. This place has certainly been around for a while as I remember coming here when I was back at…
British Hotel
Situated in the leafy streets of North Adelaide is the British Hotel which opened it’s doors back in 1838. All of the character and charm of the place still remains today as you walk through a maze of corridors to get to the dining area. The undercover outdoor dining area is out at the back…

The Saigon Times
When it comes to street food, one of the new kids on the block is The Saigon Times. Located on the north western corner of Victoria Square, this eatery replaces the former Yumalicious Vietnamese take away store with something that is more modernised. The name of the store is based on a newspaper which is…
