The Cocolat franchise is expanding. If walking to the end of Rundle Street was too hard for you, there’s now a store inside the Rundle Place food court. The desserts are pretty much the same, although I did see a few new ones on their menu. I’m not sure whether there has been an across…

Bittersweet Patisserie
Bitter Sweet Patisserie is located in a small shopping complex on Frederick Road. Cakes, pastries and chocolates are what these guys specialise in, and with a team that has world wide experience, they certainly mean business when it comes to sugary goodness. I actually stumbled on this place by chance and was surprised to be…
Saigon Gate
Saigon Gate is a restaurant located towards the northern end of O’Connell Street. The menu is primarily Vietnamese, however, some of their items are a fusion of other Asian cuisines. The place is traditionally decorated with a seating capacity of about 70. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service was pretty good. The…
San Churro – Gouger St
San Churro stores are popping up around Adelaide and the latest one to open is along the Gouger Street cafe precinct. Unlike their sister store on Rundle Street, this particular place is spacious and has a maximum capacity of 200 over 3 levels. The decor is typical of what you see in other San Churro stores,…
Patisserie Jin
Competition for your dessert dollar is pretty tough on Unley Road, because only a few shops down from this one, is another fine dessert place. Located in a well to do suburb, Patisserie Jin is owned and run by a Le Cordon Bleu trained dessert chef. The dessert menu is limited, however there is a…
Cocolat – Adelaide Airport
People usually go to airports because they have to fly somewhere, they’re in transit or they’re seeing someone off. Rarely do they come here just to hang out, but today, a group of friends and I just came to the airport for dessert. It sounded crazy, but in the end it was a good decision…
Windy Point Restaurant – Festival of Food 2013
If I was planning on proposing to a woman, one of the locations where it would possibly happen, would be at the Windy Point Restaurant. I would book a table for two, seated by the window, overlooking the city at night. Towards the end of the dinner, I would order two glasses of champagne. While…
Milkaholic
Milkaholic is a cute little dessert bar located on Edward Street, just off The Parade. Their specialty is desserts, however, they do offer a range of beverages and light snacks. Situated in a long narrow block, there is enough seating for about 40. The venue itself is very homely, but you don’t notice very much…
The Mac Factory
No, this place doesn’t supply Apple products! The Mac Factory makes every macaron flavour under the sun, and they also do breakfasts! It’s no surprise that a place that specialises in making macarons does them so well. Firm and crispy outer shells with light fluffy fillings that melt in your mouth. Today, I came here for…
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….
