Pantry On Egmont

Before I start this review, I’d like to go into how I rate places. Every place starts off with 3 stars. For every point I feel is positive, they go up a star, and for every negative they go down. Of course, depending on bad the negative point is, they might go down 2 stars….

Gloria Jeans – Hindley St

Gloria Jeans is an American franchised coffee store that is now equally as popular in Australia than it is in the States. I’ve walked past Gloria Jeans on Hindley Street on many occasions and I’ve always had my eye on their New York cheesecake. Today, I lost all self control and bought a slice. The cheesecake…

Breadtop – Grote St – Adelaide

Breadtop is an Asian bakery franchise with over 60 stores around the country. With 80 bread and pastry products and over 70 types of cakes on offer, there’s really something for everyone at this store. I really like the self serve purchasing concept that they have here, and how everything is baked fresh on the…

Chocolate Bean

You can usually tell how good a place is by how full it is. When we visited Chocolate Bean tonight, we were fortunate enough to get a table. The venue is certainly small but from the decor and layout, I think it creates a charming, cosy and relaxed atmosphere. Tonight, I ordered the Peanut Butter…

Spats Coffee Lounge

It is rumoured that the building where Spats is located used to be a brothel and offered guys (and some girls.. but mainly guys) a special type of “dessert”. These days, Spats offers “dessert” of the regular variety, as well as beverages, cocktails and meals. When Spats took over the brothel, they made minimal changes…

Roll and Roll Sushi – Bank St

Roll and Roll isn’t the cheapest sushi store in town, but you shouldn’t be put off by the slightly higher prices. After reading some positive reviews on the place, I decided to give it a go. Upon entering, you notice the store is rather small with seating available for about 5 people max. The sushi…

Chuck Wagon – North Adelaide

The name “Chuckwagon” can be interpreted in many ways. The definition here in this case comes from the chuck steak that they use to mince their burger patties. On this particular occasion, I ordered the Ultimate burger and a side of Onion Rings. The burger was of a decent size. Two thick, well cooked patties….

Public

On a street not known for it’s cafes, Adelaide’s newest eatery has just opened its doors. Public on Franklin is run by a husband and wife team and has been six months in the making. Located on the ground floor of a newly developed office block on Flinders Street, this store offers food with a…

BTS Cafe – Pirie St

I had never heard of this place until a coworker was raving about it. Located on Pirie Street it’s a small little pink store that you cannot miss. The store offers a whole range of cupcakes from normal sized ones to small ones for those watching their weight. On this occasion, I decided to get…
