I’ve heard good things about the Bakery on O’Connell. While looking for a lunch destination, I thought it was time to check it out. Open 24 hours a day, this bakery is conveniently located at the beginning of O’Connell Street, where night time revellers can grab a bite to eat to help soften their hangovers….

Royal Hotel Kent Town
The Royal Hotel is located on the corner of North Terrace and Dequetteville Terrace. Situated in a prime position, there is also plenty of parking on the North Terrace side of the building. The venue itself is deceptively large. It has a bar area, pokies room, formal dining area and a function room upstairs. Tonight,…
Dessert Story
My mother would actually love Dessert Story. The sago and tofu puddings, the taro and bean desserts and the various jellies and ice creams are what Mum would have had when she was growing up. I’m not so sure about the bubble tea or shaved ice, as that appears to be a relatively new concept….
Red Door Bakery – Goodwood
My friends have been raving about this place for a while and today, I decided it was time to check it out. Located near the northern end of King William Road, Red Door Bakery is one of two stores with the same name in Adelaide. At Red Door Bakery, it’s all about using fresh quality…
Earl Of Leicester
The Earl of Leicester is a nice pub on quiet suburban street in Parkside. The pub has a lot of old world charm with good use of dark wood and an exposed timber roof. This place has a reputation for serving up large schnitzels. Keen to see what all the fuss is about, I ordered…

After reading some reviews on this place, I was telling myself never to come here. Subconsciously, I did want to come here, as it’s a dessert bar that I’ve yet to review. So after dinner tonight, when one member of the group wanted Asian desserts, I decided we should go to Sweety. The dessert bar…
Ruby Red Flamingo
For those who intend on eating here, no bookings are accepted at this Ruby Red Flamingo. If you come early enough, getting a seat shouldn’t be a problem. The dining area is a combination of formal and semi-outdoor. We were escorted to the semi-outdoor area which consisted of a mismatch of decor. The glasses at…
Dim Well Cafe
Dim Well is a relatively new yum cha eatery located in the Gouger Street cafe precinct. The menu is your stock standard yum cha fare which is prepared as ordered. The place is relatively small with the tables close to each other. There’s no way a yum cha trolley is going to make its way…
Le Carpe Diem
Located on Grenfell Street, at the East Terrace end, is a new French creperie, Le Carpe Diem. Their food menu is basically made up of two main items, sweet crepes and savoury galettes. For those that are not familiar, galettes are flat round crusty cakes. The decor here is traditional Parisian style. The paintings, the…
Moodle
What was once the former location of the Sugar Bowl is now a Taiwanese noodle place called Moodle. The decor here is basic with good use of contrasting colours. The arrangement of various items on the left corner of the room reminded me of a neatly assembled scrap heap of unwanted items. The service here…
