I’ve been to Mekong Thai at least half a dozen times over the years, but today I decided to check it out to see whether anything has changed. Well, it hasn’t. The dishes are still the same. The decor and furniture are the original. The interior is dark and dingy, and perhaps a little bit…

Etica Ethical Pizzeria & Mozzarella Bar
When a pizzeria advertises they use “organic” vegetables, you know you’re going to be paying a lot. When they also say the meat they put on the pizza has been farmed using “ethical” practices, you might as well hand over your wallet. What was once a dental practice on Gilles Street, is now home to…
Lime and Lemon
Lime & Lemon have been around for a very long time, long before their two Thai competitors came on to the scene. This cafe offers all your traditional Thai dishes, and from what I could see of the menu, very little has changed since I was last here many years ago. The cafe is long…
Roll and Roll Sushi – Bank St
Roll and Roll isn’t the cheapest sushi store in town, but you shouldn’t be put off by the slightly higher prices. After reading some positive reviews on the place, I decided to give it a go. Upon entering, you notice the store is rather small with seating available for about 5 people max. The sushi…
Fuji Sushi
Fuji Sushi is a small little sushi joint close to the corner of Grenfell Street and Gawler Place. The place is indeed small as it would seat 6 people at most. The main products in this store are sushi rolls, sushi packs and cold rolls. The decor here is kind of traditional with clever use…
The Bath Hotel
The Bath has been around since 1856 and is located at the eastern end of the Parade. The pub specialises in Modern Australian and Seafood, however you can still get your traditional pub fare. The decor here is modern and stylish, and the venue is quite spacious. The highlight of the place is the beer…
Yiros Plus
What would a food court be without a Yiros food outlet? At the new Rundle Place food court, Yiros Plus is the new kebab store in town. Besides the usual Lamb and Chicken Yiros, this place also sells a variety of Turkish Pides (also known as Turkish Pizzas) and Baked Potatoes. Today, I ordered the…
Warong – Rundle Place
Warong is one of the new Asian specialty food outlets that has opened in the food court in Rundle Place. The store offers your usual Asian dishes and finger food. The presentation of the dishes is a bit unique as meals are served in small baskets on top of waxed paper. Today, I had the…
Rosemont Hotel
The Rosemont is somewhere I would never normally go. The place is so dark and dingy, I couldn’t tell what time of the day it was. The majority of the light came from the 39 flat screen televisions they have scattered across the room. I felt like I was one of those 24 hour security…
