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…

Chimichurri Grill
Argentinian food coming from a truck? How could you possibly go wrong? The Chimichurri Grill is a mobile food truck that serves Argentinian food. The menu is quite basic with three possible options; Chimi Steak, Chimi Chorizo and Chimi Cheese (vegetarian option). The wonderful smells emanating from the food truck really get the stomach rumbling. Today,…
Thai Lucky Bell
Located on Hindley Street, Thai Lucky Bell offers all your traditional Thai cuisine. The decor here is basic with their white plastic chairs and creamy coloured ceramic tiles. A few ornaments are scattered here and there, and counter area reminded me of a hoarders paradise. Thai Lucky Bell is a family owned business, where the…
Natee Thai
Located on Pulteney Street towards the end of Rundle Mall, Natee Thai offers all your traditional Thai favourites. The decor is simple and the service is average. There was no one to greet me when I entered the place, and customers have to order and pay at the counter towards the back of the restaurant….
Taldy-Kurgan
If you want Russian cuisine, you basically have to be Russian to get it in Adelaide. Taldy-Kurgan bucks the trend and is one of the few places that offers Russian street food. Their most popular menu item, the piroshki, is a fried yeast bun with filling in it. I ordered two varieties, the Spinach and Ricotta Piroshki,…
Lucia’s
Apparently Lucia’s is an Adelaide institution. Located in the Central Markets, this place has been around for over half a century. I’ve seen this place packed every time I’ve walked past, so it’s obvious that they’re doing something right. The decor probably hasn’t changed since it first opened, and the atmosphere is relaxed. The staff…
Mexican & Kebab House
The Mexican and Kebab House is a uniquely named eatery located in the City Cross food court. This eatery offers a range of tacos, burritos, kebabs and pides. Today, I ordered their House Special Turkish Pide. The bread was freshly baked, and nice and fluffy. The minced beef filling was tasty but there wasn’t enough…
Gochuzang
You don’t see many Korean stores in food courts, particularly in the heart of the CBD. Gochuzang bucks this trend by providing authentic cuisine in the Renaissance Arcade food court. The store offers 15 dishes and half a dozen vegetarian options which are variations of the available dishes. Today, I ordered the Sizzling Stone Beef Bibimbap….
Lamb Spit BBQ – Central Market
Lamb Spit BBQ is a little takeaway store located outside the Central Market Plaza food court. The store mainly sells Yiros but also offers other items you would find at a local fish and chip shop. The staff were friendly and the service was good. Today, I ordered the Lamb and Chicken Yiros Plate. As…
Barendoe
Barendoe is a small little Italian restaurant just off Hutt Street. We came here in a group of 30 and took up most of the place. The restaurant is modernly decorated and offers tapas as well as your traditional Italian dishes. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about their menu offerings. Tonight, I ordered the…
