A friend told me about Creperie Bruxelles several weeks before it opened. I could have rocked up on the first day, but I find new businesses need to find their feet, in order to show customers what they really can offer. Knowing this, I decided to wait a few weeks and let the hype die…

Shiki
The best Japanese restaurant in Adelaide? Without a doubt! From the moment you walk into Shiki, you realise this place just oozes style and sophistication. The place is traditionally decorated with strategically positioned ornaments near the entrance. A majority of the seating is around teppanyaki grills, however there is seating at the back of the…
Sweety
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…
St Louis House of Fine Ice Cream & Dessert – Adelaide

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…
Nic & Rocco – Grote St
A new hole in the wall patisserie has just opened up in the Central Markets. Started from the winners of My Kitchen Rules, it appears to be a franchise that will see many new stores open across the state. The desserts on offer didn’t look that great to me. I ordered the Triple Chocolate Dome…
Astonish Patisserie
Astonish Patisserie is so close to home for me. It’s my one stop shop for late night sugar fixes. This little dessert place reminds me of someones home library, although the coffee table made out of old books needs a bit more thought. The atmosphere here was relaxing and the service was OK. For what appeared…
Onyx Dessert Lounge
After having dinner with a group of friends on O’Connell Street, we noticed this newly opened dessert lounge was located just across the road. There’s always room for dessert no matter how full you are, so this was a good enough excuse to pay this place a visit. The first thing I noticed about this…
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…
Chocolate Taperia
I’m such a regular here, they recognise me when I walk into the store. Located on Melbourne Street, this cute little dessert store offers desserts with Spanish and Latin American influences. The staff were warm and inviting, and the service was exceptional. Tonight, I had the dessert platter. This consisted of Mini Gelato, Churros, Dark Chocolate Mousse,…
