There’s nothing like spending a lazy Sunday afternoon at the bay, particularly when the weather is nice. The sounds of the waves crashing into the shore and the gentle ocean breeze really set the mood for a relaxed day. When I’m in Glenelg, my usual haunt is the Dublin Hotel. The signage out the front indicated…

Burgastronomy – North Adelaide
The stars are aligned at Burgastronomy! With so many burger choices in Adelaide these days, finding the right burger for you is often a difficult one. With Burgastronomy coming aboard, I thought it was time to get my cholesterol checked. Today, I ordered the Trucker. The beef patty was tender, juicy and perfectly cooked. It…
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….
Thai Orchid
The Thai Orchid is situated in such a fantastic location, within Henley Square and facing the sea. The restaurant has two dining areas, the main indoor dining area and semi-indoor dining area. If you’re seated in the semi-indoor dining area and you’re sitting in the right spot, you can get nice views of the sea….
Fishbone Cafe
Feeling indecisive and not sure about what to eat, I stumbled upon the Fishbone Cafe in Glenelg. To one side of the store, they sell gelati (as a separate business), and on the other side, where the kitchen area is, they sell fish and chips, with other deep fried seafood options. The store is basically…
Yanni’s Yiros
There’s a new place in town that makes the AB better than everyone else. It was only by chance did I venture out this way to order one. One of original AB creators, the Blue and White Cafe, just happened to be closed for holidays, and with my insurmountable craving, I travelled to the Eastern…
American Candy Stand Cupcakes
After a night out for dinner, it was dessert time at the American Candy Stand. This cosy little place is certainly well decorated and offers all your American treats. Tonight, I went halves on a Lemon Whoopie. It’s not a cookie and it’s not a cake, but something in between. The biscuit part of the…
Burp
Burp is one of the first Mexican places to open up in Adelaide. This made Burp a bit of a novelty. These days, Burp has competitors and you’ll find a Mexican place in most food courts. They’ve also simplified their menu since I last visited and their offerings are now more in line with Zambrero….
La Cantina Co
Mexican food from a food truck? How good could it possibly be? With very little expectation, I was more than pleasantly surprised when I had a beef burrito from La Cantina. The burrito was amazing, and definitely better than some of the store competitors that are around. The beef was soft, tender and beautifully flavoured….
Outback Jack’s – Glenelg
There was a group of us looking for a feed, and the only place on the Marina where food was being served at 5:30pm in the afternoon was Outback Jacks. The location is fantastic, but that’s about it. The service was below average. There was hardly anybody around whenever we needed them. For entree, we…
