From Scratch Patisserie

Every Friday morning from about 7am, the pop up patisserie From Scratch sets up their stall next to the super trendy Coffee Branch on Leigh Street. There’s no signage indicating who they are, but I’m pretty sure I was at the right place. Yummy pastries and hot coffee are a winning combination, particularly on a…

Korea Jung

I’ve been to Korea Jung many times over the years and I’m surprised no one has reviewed this place yet. Located on Leigh Street, Korea Jung, as it’s name suggests, offers all your traditional Korean dishes. The restaurant is reasonably spacious with seating for about 60 people. The decor is modern yet basic, with the…

Franklin Hotel

I’ve been to the Franklin a few times for drinks and on each of those occasions I’ve had an enjoyable time. Located in a double storey heritage listed building, the decor is a blend of classic 50’s retro chique and recycled suburban hand me downs. The electrical wiring has been concealed in what appears to…

Fancy Burger – Adelaide

I had read an article in the paper about the new Fancy Burger opening in town a few weeks ago but they never gave the actual address. The store is right at the end of Synagogue Place with a small square sign indicating where it is. Perhaps a sign out on Rundle Street wouldn’t go…

Daniels

I can usually tell how good a restaurant is by how busy it is. I’ve walked past Daniel’s many times and I’ve never seen this place full. I must admit, I was a bit reluctant to come here because of this, but I decided to give this place a go. The restaurant is in a…

The Original Pancake Kitchen

With Adelaide being the small town that it is, there’s definitely a lack of places serving food at 2:30am on a Sunday morning. After a big night of drinking, and in desperate need for sustenance, a group of us decided to visit the Pancake Kitchen. Located in a side street just off Hindley Street, the…

Red Rock Noodle Bar – Rundle St

Looking down Rundle Street, I really wanted to go somewhere where I hadn’t been before. I also wanted something quick because I had another event to go to. The first option was the nearby sushi bar, but the sushi looked like it had been sitting around all day and they were about to close up….

Mekong Thai

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…
