Rumi Palace – Revisit

Typically my first visit to a restaurant is when it first opens and during that time, they’re still settling in and sorting out any teething problems. It’s not uncommon for an average experience, but from what I recall, it was quite good. 6 months later, Adelaide Food Central was invited back to the restaurant to…

La Bonne Table – New Menu

I can’t believe it’s been nearly 18 months since my last visit to La Bonne Table.

Fudd’s

If you were to ask me where I can get gourmet burgers down south, I would probably tell you Fancy Burger in Blackwood. Well there’s a new hotspot called Fudd’s in Aberfoyle Park. Based on the nickname of one of the owners, Fudd’s offers 8 gourmet burger options (9 if you lose the bun) and…
