I’m a big fan of sushi that comes on a train, so when I heard Saizen did $3 plates on a Sunday night, I was on the first train there! Saizen is located on the northern end of O’Connell Street. The decor is traditional with a nice high divider that separates the customers on either…

Oyster Shop
The Oyster Shop is a small fish and chip store located down the busy end of Jetty Road. As their name suggests, they also serve oysters, shipped from Coffin Bay. There’s a take away section at the front, and a dine in section around the back. Not surprisingly, the take away menu is slightly cheaper…
The Store
The Store is a beautifully decorated bistro located on the trendiest part of Melbourne Street. With plenty of seating both inside and out, this really is the perfect place to relax on a Sunday afternoon. I particularly like their round concrete outdoor tables. They’re so bold and low maintenance, and yet so practical. Today, I…
The Original Yiros House
If I am partying down Rundle Street, the Yiros House would be my stop off at 3am in the morning. There’s nothing like a Yiros for a hangover cure. Mind you, the food tastes a lot better when you’re completely drunk than when you’re semi drunk. Last night, I ordered their Lamb Yiros. Their pita…
Dragon Tea House
Knowing that the Dragon Tea House was relatively new, and that there were some positive reviews about this place, I thought it was a safe decision to bring a group of friends along to check it out. When I first walked in, I was impressed by the traditional and elegant decor. The table we were…
Thai Spice
For a restaurant, Thai Spice is deceptively larger than it appears. With entrances from the front and rear, I think you could easily fit 80 people in here. With that being said, there is limited parking at the rear of the restaurant, so I can’t see this place ever being a full house. The decor…
Paddy’s Lantern
Paddy’s Lantern serves simple delicious meals using quality ingredients. The Smoked Ocean Trout that I ordered was beautifully presented and tasted simply amazing! I absolutely loved the crunchy texture from the pumpkin seeds on the bread. The horseradish cream cheese was smooth and had nice depth. The smokey flavours from the ocean trout was quite…
Blue Lemon
On my way to a big drinking session at the Adelaide Wine Centre, I stumble (no, I wasn’t drunk yet!) onto Blue Lemon who offer a traditional selection of baguettes. Conveniently located across the road from Adelaide University, a lot of their clientele are university students. Today, I ordered their Smoked Salmon Baguette. It was…
Atomic Burger Bar
I’ve driven past this place so many times when it used to be called something else. In recent times, it’s been given a face lift and is now known as the Atomic Burger Bar. While the signage and menus look more modern, the place itself still looks like an old fish and chip shop. I…
Burger Theory – Union St – Adelaide
Burger Theory now has their own store in the city! The 2 classic burger offerings are there, as well as 2 new ones, although one of them was a kid’s burger. There’s a new breakfast menu as well as a selection of beverages. The new staff were put to the test by dealing with real…
