The Highway

The Highway is many things to many people. Some people go there for drinks and some for dancing. For me, I go there for the food. From the outside, it is evident that there is plenty of parking, but the building itself is deceptively large. Facing Marion Road, you have the sports bar. As you…

Concubine

Fine dining Chinese restaurants are places I don’t usually go to. The place is worlds away from it’s nearest competitors that are just a few shops down. This stylish and classy restaurant is located close to the middle of Gouger Street, and offers all your classical Chinese dishes. The decor here is funky yet classical,…

National Wine Centre

Adelaide is the number one wine producing state in Australia, so it’s fitting we have a National Wine Centre. I’ve been lucky enough to come here for all sorts of reasons from functions and conferences to cocktail and wine tasting. I’m a regular here on Friday afternoons. On a Friday every fortnight, they have Uncorked…

Eros Ouzeri

Eros Ouzeri is located on the eastern end of Rundle Street. The decor is simple and elegant, however, the service here is unbelievably slow. Granted it was a busy night, it took a waitress 30 minutes to take our order. Tonight, I ordered the Souvlaki. The meal came out after a 15 minute wait but…

Botanic Bar

The Botanic Bar is such a classy establishment. The classical old style interior and the consistently wonderful ambience set this place apart from the rest. The seating is comfortable, the staff are friendly and how could you not go past the $6 pizzas! Tonight, I went for the Turkish Lamb Pizza. The pizzas are simple…

The Kings Hotel

The King’s Hotel is one of my locals and is conveniently located on the corner of Sturt Street and King William Street, just outside the City South tram stop. The pub offers all your traditional pub fare, and their food menu utilises a lot of locally sourced ingredients. The decor has a traditional English style…

Enuf Burger Bar – Glenelg

Enuf Burger Bar has been around for about 2 years, long before the boom in gourmet burger places. Located close to the corner of Tapleys Hill Road and Anzac Highway, this burger joint offers a large variety of gourmet burgers with all your main meat types and a selection of 3 different buns. As I…

Rundle Spices

Looking for a cheap eat down Rundle Street, I couldn’t help noticing the $9.90 lunch specials that Rundle Spices has on offer for all their noodle and rice dishes. Located towards the eastern end of Rundle Street, this little cafe offers a fusion of Chinese and Thai dishes. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service…

San Churro – Rundle St

Nearly 500 years ago, chocolate was brought over to Spain from Central America. It was the monks who were entrusted to provide chocolate drinks to the aristocracy. One monk in particular, San Churro, believed chocolate had healing properties and brought joy to peoples lives. In Australia, San Churro is bringing joy to Australian lives with…

Amalfi

Amalfi is so good that you shouldn’t even bother trying to come here without a booking. The dining area is efficiently used at this place. For what could be described as cosy, they’ve tried to cram in as many tables and seats into the restaurant as possible. The atmosphere is vibrant with waiters hustling past…
