With the issuing of small bar licences, Adelaide’s laneways are becoming more vibrant. One of the side streets that is slowly evolving is Gresham Street, which is the first street west off King William. Replacing a former clothing store is Bibliotheca Bar & Book Exchange, which is the first of two bars to open along…

Hains & Co.
The newest bar to open up in Adelaide is Hains & Co, which is located on Gilbert Place, right in the heart of the Adelaide CBD. It’s headed by the award winning Marcus Motteram, who has already established several successful bars in Melbourne. Like most small bars in Adelaide, there’s some sort of theme. Hains…
Market on Maxwell
The Market on Maxwell is located within a small group of shops about half way down Maxwell Terrace in Glenelg East. My experience with small cafes down side streets is quite good so I had rather high expectations when coming here. Unfortunately, once I had a look at the menu, I thought the food offerings…
Goody’s Chicken and Seafood
The local chicken shop in Black Forest is Goody’s Chicken and Seafood which is located in a small shopping complex on busy South Road. Some people might say that all chicken shops are the same. When it comes to the menu, that’s fairly true as there is a selection of chicken, burgers, seafood and salads…

Fancy Ices
If you’ve ever watched cooking shows, you would have seen liquid nitrogen being used in the kitchen at one point or another. Some fancy restaurants like to use it to freeze food or drinks, or to merely showcase its vapour when it’s exposed to air. With a tank full of liquid nitrogen nearby, Fancy Ices…
Pickle In The Middle
Pickle In The Middle was originally a stall in the Central Markets. Now, turned cafe, in the Unley location, the menu has since expanded while still retaining the back to basics approach to food. A lot of their ingredients are made in house which involves the use of fresh produce as well as pickling, preserving…
2KW Bar and Restaurant
What a great idea to have a roof top bar on top of an iconic building such as 2 King William Street. Customers are escorted from the ground floor and have to take two lifts to reach the venue. Once upstairs, you’re treated to spectacular views across the city. With a restaurant, outdoor bar and…
Ming’s Palace
Ming’s Palace are renown for the best Peking Duck in Adelaide. My last visit to this restaurant was over a decade ago and it was time to pay this place another visit. If you want to order either the Peking Duck or Fortune Chicken, you’ll need to tell them by the morning of your dinner….
