When I checked the restaurant website and saw that Arya were voted the “Best Indian Restaurant in Australia”, I really had to come here to find out for myself. Located in the North Adelaide Village on O’Connell Street, this place is beautifully decorated. The staff are warm and inviting, and the menu offers all your…

Astor Hotel
$10 meals from Monday to Friday? Yibbida! Yibbida! That’s all folks! The Astor is one of my many local pubs. Located on the corner of Gilles and Pulteney, this venue is a favourite for functions or after work drinks. I for one, come here for the cheap meals. Who needs to go grocery shopping, go…
Souvlaki Bros
For me, the how good a yiros is comes down to the quality of the meat. The lamb at Souvlaki Brothers is one of the best in Adelaide. Large chunks of tender perfectly marinated lamb cooked to perfection over charcoal is going to be good in any yiros. The service is good, the store is…
Himalayan Kitchen
No need to climb Mt Everest for Nepalese tucker, it’s all here at the Himalayan Kitchen. Located on the northern end of Melbourne Street, this cosy little restaurant offers all your Nepalese favourites. To remind us of where we are, the place is decorated with pictures of the Himalayas. The staff are warm and inviting….
Star House
So many places to choose from when it comes to yum cha down Gouger Street. I must admit I’m a regular at the place across the road, but this place isn’t too bad either. The decor at this place is simple and the service wasn’t too bad. They have a large selection of yum cha dishes…
Gourmet Glaze
When it comes to plain glazed donuts, Krispy Kreme have perfected the recipe and other donut stores just don’t seem to get it right. When it comes to variations of donut styles and flavours, Gourmet Glaze are pretty good. I get weak at the knees with their Vanilla Iced Ring donut. The donut is soft…
Montezuma’s – Melbourne St
I’ve been to Montezuma’s several times over the years and the menu hasn’t changed. The menu offers a range of dishes, and various combinations of those dishes. While the food is not authentic, it is reasonably cheap. The restaurant has a Aztec theme about it with all the Mexican paraphernalia hanging off the walls. The…
Nanyang Cafe
When my Malay friends tell me that Nanyang serves the most authentic Malaysian cuisine in Adelaide, I believe them. Located in the Renaissance Arcade, this two level cafe is always busy and the majority of their customers are Asian. The number of Asian customers in an Asian eatery is a true litmus test as to…
Tasty Thai By Meow Thai
Tasty Thai is a long rectangular store on Bank Street. It’s not the most conventional looking place, but it certainly has frontage. The decor is modern and elegant, the staff were warm and inviting, and the service was quite good. I decided to go for their Beef Curry. The vegetables were fresh and the flavours were…
Caffe Prego
After an 8km walk to Glenelg and back, a group of us were feeling a bit peckish and were in the mood for some Italian. Located metres away from Brighton Jetty, Prego has a menu that is not too different to those Italian cafe franchises. Unlike the other reviewers, I didn’t have too many problems…
