Benny’s American Take Away – Blackwood

American themed eateries seem to be rising in popularity around Adelaide, and Benny’s American Take Away is the latest to join the ranks. Located in a small shopping complex out in Blackwood, the store can be easily missed, however, Michael, the store owner, assures me the signage is going up soon. The store itself isn’t…

Culshaw’s

I’ve had this restaurant on my “to eat” list for quite some time, and tonight I got to experience some fine modern Australian cuisine. Located on the ground floor of the Majestic Hotel, the place is not particularly large, however, it is beautifully decorated. The large stylish light fittings, the chique open bar, the classic…

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…

Low & Slow American BBQ

I’m a fan of American fast food, so when I saw a food truck that satisfied my inner most cravings, I was lining up without hesitation. On this occasion, they were parked outside the Wheatsheaf Hotel. What better way to drum up business than to park outside a pub that doesn’t serve food. Tonight, I ordered…

Chuck Wagon – North Adelaide

The name “Chuckwagon” can be interpreted in many ways. The definition here in this case comes from the chuck steak that they use to mince their burger patties. On this particular occasion, I ordered the Ultimate burger and a side of Onion Rings. The burger was of a decent size. Two thick, well cooked patties….

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…

Mesa Lunga

Mesa Lunga is superbly located on the corner of Morphett Street and Gouger Street. Divided into two sections, there is the main dining area, and in another section, which is accessible from the outside, there is a separate bar. The place has indoor and outdoor dining areas, and during the process of booking, the owner was…

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….

Johnston Oakbank

I love my wineries and with every wine tour, there is a need to sit down for some grub at some point during the day, just to soak in all that alcohol. On this occasion, we stopped off at Johnston Oakbank for their Lamb and Rosemary Pie. The pie was delicious! The lamb was succulent,…

Katsumoto

Katsumoto is a hidden gem within Adelaide Arcade. Not your typical Japanese restaurant but one for traditional home cooked meals. The place is small yet vibrant, the staff are warm and inviting, and the service was exceptional. While there isn’t a large selection to choose from on the menu, it’s not necessarily a bad thing. I…
