Hahndorf Inn

My favourite place for German food is the Hahndorf Inn. When ever I’m in the area, I will make sure that I have lunch there. Hahndorf is a good 20 minute drive from the city, but for premium quality dishes and authentic German cuisine, it’s well worth the drive. The decor is traditional and it’s…

Dolci Galleria

Dolci Galleria is a cute little dessert store located on Magill Road. The decor is simple and elegant with dark colour tones, a classical wallpapered feature wall, fancy light fittings and contemporary pictures that are also for sale. The menu is fairly standard for a dessert store. Coffee, hot and cold beverages, a small selection…

Sir Cafe – Runde St – Adelaide

Sir Cafe is a cute little dessert and tea house located on the first floor of a Rundle Street terrace building. The signage is small and it’s one of those places that you actually need to look for. The decor is both charming and tasteful, which is totally opposite to its nearby neighbour. The elegant…

Golden Boy

The Botanic Bar has replaced what was once a seating and pool table area with a new Thai restaurant, Golden Boy. The venue is not particularly large with a long tiled bench running across the centre of the room. Surrounding the bench is a booth, a series of small tables, and a bar towards the…

Tin Bin Bo

Tin Bin Bo is a small Vietnamese eatery located on Grange Road. They specialise in Vietnamese rolls but also offer a selection of rice vermicelli dishes as well as other small snacks. The place itself is in a long narrow building with garage and cooking facilities at the rear of the premises. The service and…

Sliders On Rundle

Joining the burger bandwagon is Sliders on Rundle, which is located at the former site of Alfresco’s.  This place is not purely dedicated to burgers as your pizza and pasta options (that were available at Alfresco’s) are still on the menu. You could almost say that this place has become Americanised Italian, with the addition…

Golden Dragon Palace Seafood Restaurant

It’s been quite some time since I last visited Golden Dragon and in terms of decor, nothing seems to have really changed. The place is traditional and elegant with the Chinese lanterns, the timber dividers and the wallpaper that features Chinese characters. The white table cloths and leather seating give this place a more luxurious…

Birdcage Cafe

There are two stores named Birdcage on the same street, so this store should not be confused with the women’s clothing store a bit further down. Birdcage is a cosy little dessert store on the eastern end of Rundle Street. The decor is stylish and elegant with nice earthy colour tones. The wrought iron clock…

Gallery

The eagerly awaited re-opening of the Gallery occurred last night, as those in the know, ventured up to the top floor of the venue. The first two floors are yet to be opened to the public, however, the star attraction, the expansive roof top bar, was impressive to say the least. With double the floor…

Vego & Love’n It

This is the second vegetarian place I’ve been to in the last 24 hours and I’m noticing a common theme. It’s like I’ve walked through a wormhole and been teleported back to the 1960’s. With mismatched furniture, picture framed mosaics, photos of Bali and Marilyn Monroe, there is no real theme to this place. The…
