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…
Mamak Corner
Mamak Corner is a great place to go for a quick meal. Whenever you walk past, you can smell the aromas of the curry wafting through the air. while there isn’t much seating, this place always seems to be busy, particularly around lunch times. When I eat here I usually go for the Curry Lamb….
Mandoo
I’ve been to Mandoo several times and I must say their dumplings are pretty good. Located in a small store on Bank Street, the place is always packed at lunch time. With what appears to be a family run business, the staff are warm and inviting and it’s impressive to see the dumplings made in…

Nando’s – Kurralta Park

House of Chow
House of Chow is a good place to go for Westernised Chinese cuisine. The menu has been adapted to suit the Australian palette so you won’t be eating anything groundbreaking here. The restaurant has been around for long as I can remember and so has the menu it seems. It’s like the restaurant has been…

The Strathmore Hotel
I’ve been to the Strath so many times and for so many different reasons. Being a stone throw away from where I work, I’ve had dozens of farewell drinks, as well as many company paid lunches here. The location is convenient, particularly for my friends who have to catch the train home after a boozy…
