We came to Ga Bin by chance tonight as the restaurant we were supposed to go to didn’t serve food until 6pm. I had heard reports that this place wasn’t very good, so I came here with little to no expectations. Ga Bin call themselves a Korean restaurant, but as one other reviewer had said,…

Hahndorf German Arms Hotel
Every time I’m up in Hahndorf, I usually eat at the Hahndorf Inn, but after my first visit to the German Arms, I was pleasantly surprised. The venue is considerably spacious, and the decor is traditional with good use of timber. Adjacent tables are a good distance apart, and the dining space over different levels…
Cocolat – Rundle Place
The Cocolat franchise is expanding. If walking to the end of Rundle Street was too hard for you, there’s now a store inside the Rundle Place food court. The desserts are pretty much the same, although I did see a few new ones on their menu. I’m not sure whether there has been an across…
River Cafe – Festival of Food 2013
Having been to the fine dining restaurant upstairs a few weeks ago, I already had high expectations of this place. Located in the same building as the Red Ochre restaurant, the River Cafe also provides fantastic views of the city and the Torrens River. The setting is elegant and modern, and the service is excellent….
Tea House Yum Cha
For me, yum cha is starting to taste the same where ever I have it, particularly with the mass production of a lot of the food items. I was even more skeptical when someone suggested we have it in a food court. When I approached Tea House Yum Cha in the Rundle Place food court,…
Cafe de Vili’s
There’s nothing like a 24 hour bakery on the outskirts of the city. With decor straight of the 80’s, this place serves everything you would find in a corner tuck shop, but on a larger scale. I’ve had the chips and gravy from here before, but this time I went for the Caramel and Banana…
Mylk Bar
Adelaide will no longer be known as the “City of Churches”, but more the “City of Bars”. Mylk bar is one of the latest bars to open up in Adelaide. Located on Flinders Street, at the Victoria Square end, most of the clientele that visit here are white collar workers. The external facade of this…
Thai In A Wok
Thai In A Wok is a small to medium sized place on the north western side of Hindmarsh Square. The decor is basic and neat, with the use of commercial chairs and tables being quite prominent. There’s adequate space between adjacent tables, which is a good thing. My initial impression of this place wasn’t a…
Outback Jack’s – North Adelaide
Outback Jacks is another steak franchise that has stores across the country. Located on the second floor of North Adelaide Village, I didn’t realise it was there until I really looked for it. The decor here is fairly similar to it’s other stores, with the main feature being the giant styrofoam crocodile hanging from the…
Sebel Playford Adelaide
Eating a lunch time meal at the bar is one thing, but dining at the restaurant is a totally different experience. Tonight, I had a perfect 3 course meal with absolutely nothing to fault. The meals came out 15 minutes after ordering, and each subsequent course was very well timed. SPICY SOY GLAZED QUAIL –…
