I must I admit, I really like Star of Siam. A group of us were indecisive about where to eat after the Cirque du Soleil show, and this place was happy to accommodate our last minute booking. Located on the Gouger Street food precinct, Star of Siam offers all your traditional Thai favourites. The staff…

T-Chow
How do you know if a Chinese restaurant is authentic? When Asian people actually eat there! Located in the heart of the Central Markets, T Chow has been serving good chow for well over a decade, and offers all your traditional Chinese dishes. The staff here are friendly and inviting, and the service was pretty…
Sofra
I often find that I’m still hungry after attending a function that only serves finger food. I need a proper meal to get myself through the night. Restaurant kitchens usually close when you get past 8:30pm and going out for a proper meal can be difficult. One of the options is Sofra Kebab House. Located on…
Caffe Primo – Adelaide CBD
While on my way to the Central Markets I noticed Caffe Primo had a $10 lunch special for pizza and pasta. Not for one item but both! Seeing this as a good lunch deal, I had no hesitation in walking in. Located in the new Franklin Street bus station building, this place is modernly decorated…
Marcellina’s
$10 lunch specials at Marcellina’s? I’m there! I’ve had their pizza before but was now tempted to try some of their pasta. This is the flagship store for the Marcellina franchise and has been around for over 40 years. The place has been refurbished to give a more modern feel. The staff here are friendly and…
Ky Chow
Ky Chow is my favourite Chinese restaurant in Adelaide. I’ve been coming here for years, even when it was located down the western end of Gouger Street. Back then, the restaurant was small and they would try to cram as many people in as possible. At their new location, the decor is more modern and…
Manee Siam
Manee Siam is a small Thai restaurant on Goodwood Road. The decor here is basic, with the restaurant offering all your traditional Thai dishes. The staff here are friendly and inviting, and the service is exceptional. Today, I ordered the Massaman Beef Curry. The meal arrived within 20 minutes of ordering, and all meals arrived at…
Astonish Patisserie
Astonish Patisserie is so close to home for me. It’s my one stop shop for late night sugar fixes. This little dessert place reminds me of someones home library, although the coffee table made out of old books needs a bit more thought. The atmosphere here was relaxing and the service was OK. For what appeared…
Panacea
Tapas is so popular in Adelaide at the moment. Situated close to where I live is Panacea. Located on Halifax Street, this beautifully decorated restaurant reminds me of when I was dining out in Barcelona. The rustic flooring, the outdoor canopy, and the spacious courtyard, all make for a cosy environment. The service here was…
Chimichurri Grill
Argentinian food coming from a truck? How could you possibly go wrong? The Chimichurri Grill is a mobile food truck that serves Argentinian food. The menu is quite basic with three possible options; Chimi Steak, Chimi Chorizo and Chimi Cheese (vegetarian option). The wonderful smells emanating from the food truck really get the stomach rumbling. Today,…
