C.R.E.A.M.

Tucked away in an alley on Jetty Road, Brighton is a brand new cafe called C.R.E.A.M. (Coffee Rules Everything Around Me). Open during the day, they have a gourmet breakfast and brunch menu that consists of 15 offerings. The most interesting item that I could see was the Glazed Donut Breakfast Sandwich. Apart from that,…

Giallo Wine Bar

Giallo, which means ‘yellow’ in Italian, is a small restaurant/wine bar tucked away at far-east Rundle Street. It’s been open for three years now but there are still a lot of people who don’t know it’s there. Even though it’s right there on Rundle Street, it doesn’t really stand out so it’s easy to drive…

The Haus Hahndorf

The Haus Hahndorf is located right in the heart of the Adelaide Hills and is a popular destination for both locals and tourists. Open everyday for breakfast, lunch and dinner, they’re known for their use of fresh and seasonal produce. Adelaide Food Central was invited for lunch today and was immediately impressed by their extensive…

Somerled Wines

Somerled is the brainchild of winemaker Rob Moody who spent more than 30 years working at Penfolds and has been involved in some of Australia’s most famous wines. Their cellar door is located on the main street in Hahndorf and has plenty of sunny courtyards for you to sit back, relax and enjoy their wine….

Mexican Society of Chinatown

Some say that every restaurant should have a good story line. The story behind the Mexican Society of Chinatown is that a group of Mexicans immigrated to Australia and moved into Adelaide’s Chinatown area. The result is Mexican food with Asian influences as reflected on their menu. All the dishes that end in 88 cents…

Sir Cafe – Gouger St – Adelaide

Anybody that has worked their way down Rundle Street would already be familiar with Sir Cafe. Taking over the former BTS store on Gouger Street, Sir Cafe have opened their second store within the Chinatown cafe precinct. They’ve retained the quirky yet stylish decor that was once there, which is pretty much in line with…

Star Dumplings

Businesses often undergo rebranding in order to revitalise their business. The owners of Star Dumplings have done just that and have adopted a more generic and easy to remember name. The menu is still the same as what I remember from April last year. For lunch, I ordered the Fried Chicken Dumplings. The dish arrived…

AsiaFest 2015 – Teppanyaki Degustation

Adelaide Food Central was invited to a 9 course Teppanyaki degustation meal at Asiafest on Thursday. All the food and drinks were complimentary. I love food adventures, especially degustation meals due to its variability and continuity in the courses. On top of that, the menu design often portrays the food passion of the chef. This…

Mazze on Rundle

Scoozi Caffe Bar had been on Rundle Street for as long as I can remember, and I was almost in shock to not see it there. In its place is Mazze on Rundle, which offers a similar type of cuisine. Offerings include entrees, bruschetta, wraps, foccacia, schiacciata, pizza, calzone, pasta, risotto, salads and meat dishes….
