Adelaide Pho is located in a building that was once my internet service provider. Now a Vietnamese restaurant, it specialises in Beef Noodle Soup as well as other traditional Vietnamese dishes. The decor is basic and the place could seat about 50 people. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service is pretty good. Today, I ordered…

Blue and White Cafe
It’s been a while since I’ve been to the Blue and White. I had my very first AB here many years ago and had been a loyal customer for quite some time. After a while the quality of the AB dropped and I found myself eating at the Red and White. For review purposes, I…
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….

Divided into two sections, there is the main dining area, and in another section, which is accessible from the outside, there is a separate bar. The place has indoor and outdoor dining areas, and during the process of booking, the owner was…

Located on Pulteney Street at the South Terrace end is a cosy little restaurant called the Vietnam Kitchen. The place is decorated nicely and offers all your traditional Vietnamese dishes. The staff are warm and inviting, and the service was…
Zambrero – Rundle St
Most of the products at Zambrero are all wrapped up and don’t make good photos. The only thing that looked presentable was the Beef Bowl, so that’s what I ordered. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about what was on offer. I liked how one person handled the food and another person handled the money….
Caffe Primo – Adelaide CBD
While on my way to the Central Markets I noticed Caffe Primo had a $10 lunch special for pizza and pasta. Not for one item but both! Seeing this as a good lunch deal, I had no hesitation in walking in. Located in the new Franklin Street bus station building, this place is modernly decorated…
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…
