Don’t judge a restaurant by its crappy decor. This rings very true, particularly for this place. The external appearance of this place reminds me of a run down crack house, while the internal is a bit more presentable. I would never have considered this place had I not read some positive reviews of the place….

Apothecary 1878
They say to properly critique a place, you need to go there several times. The first time I visited this place, I had tapas in the bar area and the customer service wasn’t exactly the best. Tonight, we dined in the restaurant area, located in the basement of the building, and the experience was top…
Food For Thought
I must admit, I had very little expectation for this place when I found out this place used to be Glow, and had been subsequently rebadged. Similar home style cooked meals were available and the interior decor was identical to my last visit. Today, I ordered the Cajun Chicken in Turkish Bread. The meals were…
Ed Castle
The Ed Castle is located towards the western end of Currie Street in a building that is nearly 2 centuries old. Considering the city of Adelaide is not that old itself, this particular venue has historical significance. The first thing you notice when you enter the place is the set of pool tables. I initially…
Taste Baguette – Adelaide Uni
I was so impressed with the Taste Baguette Rundle Street store, I couldn’t wait to see what their Adelaide University store was like. Located inside Hub Central, this particular store is a bit more spacious, and I was delighted to see that their pricing was a bit lower. While Hub Central appears to be a…
Taste Baguette – Rundle St
I’ve walked past this place on many occasions without really knowing what it was. The exterior of the store is dark and the signage is not clearly visible unless you’re up close. It was only when I read some reviews on the place did I realise this was the same place they were talking about….
Bliss Pizzeria
Bliss Pizzeria is located on Melbourne Street in North Adelaide. The decor is basic, and typical of your suburban pizza joint. The owner of the store is really friendly and helpful, and is happy to go through the 29 pizza options and decide which one is best for you. All the pizzas are cooked in…
Fasta Pasta – Rundle Place
Unlike all other Fasta Pasta chains, this one is located in a food court. You’re not going to get quality Italian food here, but you will get a cheap, consistent Italian fix. They even have $7.90 lunch specials on at the moment, so everything just got cheaper. Today, I ordered the Penne Rosso. The meal…
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…
Est Pizzeria
Est is a moderately sized pizza place on East Terrace. With their main kitchen area taking up most of the space on the ground floor, the place is still deceptively large if you count the number of seats (12 outside, 11 on the ground floor inside and 21 upstairs). Their specialty is gourmet wood oven…
