Before I start this review, I’d like to go into how I rate places. Every place starts off with 3 stars. For every point I feel is positive, they go up a star, and for every negative they go down. Of course, depending on bad the negative point is, they might go down 2 stars….

Yiros Centre
If I’m looking for alone time, I’ll grab a yiros with extra garlic sauce and onions. My breath will be so garlicky, even the vampires will stay away. Usually the only people I can speak to, are the people that had a yiros with me. With the amount of mess a yiros makes, it’s not…
Two-Bit Villains
Two Bit Villains (TBV) is a soda bar, diner and clothing store in the upper level of the beautiful Adelaide Arcade. I knew there were shops upstairs, but I didn’t even know the location of the stairs until tonight. Coming up here was a real treat because you could closely admire the magnificent architecture of…
Bali Corner
Bali Corner is a take away store in the International Food Plaza food court in Chinatown. The place offers traditional “Warung” style Indonesian food and their menu uses fresh locally sourced ingredients. Fresh spices and chili are predominant in their dishes which are essential to Indonesian cuisine. Today, I ordered the Beef Rendang. The dish…
Windy Point Restaurant – Festival of Food 2013
If I was planning on proposing to a woman, one of the locations where it would possibly happen, would be at the Windy Point Restaurant. I would book a table for two, seated by the window, overlooking the city at night. Towards the end of the dinner, I would order two glasses of champagne. While…
Vegie Village
Vegie Village is a small Malay vegetarian eatery located in the western part of the city. The place is basically decorated with IKEA tables, chairs and glasses, and seats a maximum of 25 people. There’s a good variety of dishes on their menu and enough to satisfy the pickiest of vegetarians. The staff are nice…
Swinging Bowl Satay
Swinging Bowl Satay is a small take away place on Stephens Place, which is on the eastern boundary of the Myer Centre. The place specialises in authentic Malay dishes, more so from the northern Malay region, based on the spiciness of the dishes. The decor here is pretty basic. The plastic seating, the fold out…
China Bar
If there was a prime location within Station Arcade, China Bar would have it. Located right at the entrance on Hindley Street, the food stall is divided into two sections. One side serves your traditional Chinese take away dishes, while the other side serves sushi and your usual Japanese fare. Tonight, I ordered their Salmon and…
Babanusa
Babanusa is a restaurant located on Prospect Road. It has been open for 18 years and is Australia’s only Sudanese restaurant. The place must be doing something right to last that long. The decor here is basic and slightly traditional. The bongo drums, the ornaments hanging off the walls and the extensive use of timber,…
Andre’s Cucina & Polenta Bar
I’ve only heard good things about this place and tonight, my expectations were more than exceeded. Andre’s is located on the ground floor of the Mantra on Frome hotel complex. The place is small to medium in size, and has the capacity to seat about 50 people. Some of the tables did seem to be…
