Cafe One Two Nine is the downstairs bar area in the Strathmore Hotel. I reckon I’ve been here at least 30 times over the years and for all sorts of reasons. Farewell drinks, company paid lunches and boozy nights are the most common ones. The decor is modern with warehouse style influences, and the service…

Jerusalem Sheshkebab House
Jerusalem House is an Adelaide institution that has been around for many decades. Located on Hindley Street, this place is renown for their cheap good food and bad service. The decor is hilarious with the use of Hessian bags as a ceiling and McDonald’s benches as seating. The plastic jugs, the dim lights and the…
Regent Thai
Regent Thai is one of the many Thai places located down O’Connell Street. I had never heard of this place before until a friend recommended it so I gathered a group of friends together and checked it out. The place was decorated nicely and the staff were friendly and inviting. One thing I wasn’t impressed…
Citi Zen
Citi Zen was previously located across the road from where it is now, but since it moved into the old Brecknock building, it now has impressive decor that matches the quality of the food. The imposing high ceilings and underground fish tank are some of the impressive features. The restaurant offers all the traditional Chinese…
Charcoal Hwaro
Charcoal Hwaro is definitely one of best Korean BBQ places in Adelaide. Located on a side street just outside the Central Markets, this place is an absolute delight for the carnivores who love their Korean food. The restaurant is small and cosy but also doubles as a butcher. If you don’t have time to cook…
BB Steak House
BB Steak House is a takeaway store in the Southern Cross Arcade that specialises in Korean meat dishes. The chef used to work for a five star hotel which appears to be one of their selling points for eating here. There’s less than a dozen things to choose from on their menu, but the sound…
Yiannis On Hindley
Yiannis On Hindley make some of the best yiros in Adelaide. The décor is fairly basic and there aren’t too many seats available, but most of their customers are mostly take away anyway. Today, I ordered my usual, the Lamb Yiros. Like most good yiros places, they perform the kill step after they slice the meat…
Fasta Pasta – South Tce
When I want to go out for cheap Italian, this place is one step up from getting Italian food at a food court. It’s probably miles behind the best Italian restaurant, but the food here is cheap and the service is usually good. I remember when this particular store was located on Pirie Street. It…
Seoul Express
If you want fast and cheap Korean food, Seoul Express is the place to go. Located in Southern Cross Arcade, this is one of the few Korean takeaway stores that I am aware of. There is a sufficient number of dishes to choose from, all with pretty pictures to see what you’re getting. On this…
Golden Snack Bar
Golden Snack Bar is a little store in the Southern suburbs that specialises in Vietnamese meat rolls. Their main specialties are the Roast Pork Vietnamese roll and the Lemon Grass Chicken Vietnamese Roll. Their bread rolls are freshly delivered each morning. While I’d love to say their Roast Pork Vietnamese rolls are the best in…
