The latest dessert place to open in Adelaide is St Louis House of Fine Ice Cream and Dessert. Located close to the eastern end of Gouger Street, St Louis offers 16 locally made ice creams, as well as a range of hot and cold beverages, churros, cakes, waffles and macarons. The decor here is classic…

Alfresco On Rundle
It’s a bit of a catch 22 when you want to go out for dinner, with a large group on a Friday night, and you haven’t made a booking, particularly in the busy Rundle Street cafe precinct. While wandering around aimlessly, we discovered that Alfresco’s was able to accommodate us, however, the number of empty…
Mother’s Crepe
Mother’s Crepe is found on a busy little corner on Grote Street. It shares its store with Chatime, which are both owned by the same franchisee. As the name suggests, they specialise in crepes with over a 100 to choose from. On top of that, they also sell smoothies and a range of ice cream,…
The Original Pancake Kitchen
With Adelaide being the small town that it is, there’s definitely a lack of places serving food at 2:30am on a Sunday morning. After a big night of drinking, and in desperate need for sustenance, a group of us decided to visit the Pancake Kitchen. Located in a side street just off Hindley Street, the…
Piatto
There are so many choices for Italian food down Rundle Street. On this particular occasion, a group of us came in without a booking and they were more than happy to accommodate. The decor here is modern and chic, and the menu selection is extensive with lots to choose from. When we ordered drinks, one of…
Gelatissimo – Gouger St
When I was in Italy, I basically had gelati everyday. While the gelati at Gelatissimo is different to what I had in Italy, it’s still ice cream and any ice cream is good! (except for salted ice cream.. seriously.. who puts salt in ice cream?) To thoroughly enjoy our dessert, we came here before dinner….
Burp
Burp is one of the first Mexican places to open up in Adelaide. This made Burp a bit of a novelty. These days, Burp has competitors and you’ll find a Mexican place in most food courts. They’ve also simplified their menu since I last visited and their offerings are now more in line with Zambrero….
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…
Lucia’s
Apparently Lucia’s is an Adelaide institution. Located in the Central Markets, this place has been around for over half a century. I’ve seen this place packed every time I’ve walked past, so it’s obvious that they’re doing something right. The decor probably hasn’t changed since it first opened, and the atmosphere is relaxed. The staff…
Donut King – Adelaide
Mmmm… Donuts… For me, there’s always room for sweets after lunch in town. What better way to satisfy that craving than to visit Donut King. From your Classic Cinnamon donuts to your high calorie Jam Balls, there’s something for everyone. If you don’t feel like donuts, there’s also coffee, cakes, hot dogs and ice cream….
