Ok folks, it’s time you paid a visit to Chloe’s. Why? Because it’s so damn good! I’m always appalled at the number of people who I mention this place to that either (a) haven’t heard of it or (b) haven’t been! Chloe’s is true fine dining right here in Adelaide and it’s been around for thirty Read more
I like Jarmer’s Kitchen, I like it a lot. It’s “a casual eatery celebrating family, friends and food” and it’s open every day serving breakfast and lunch and dinners (dinners Monday-Saturday). I’ve only been for lunch, but parking’s Read more
“Beer Hall, Eating House and Disco” With a description like this, who would have thought that I’d find good food here? It’s a little surprising that I chose this as a dining destination on my recent Melbourne visit – I don’t drink beer (try as I might), hence I haven’t even been in a beer hall, and I haven’t been Read more
On a number of occasions, I’ve found myself needing a place to have a quality late night feed – somewhere where the kitchens don’t close by 9:30pm. From the phone calls I’ve made in the past, I’ve discovered such options in Adelaide are few and far between. Enter The Propaganda Club, the new supper club Read more
SINCE WRITING THIS, BISTRO DOM IS NO LONGER OPEN
Bistro Dom is on the Waymouth Street restaurant strip and I’m amazed that so many people I speak to have never been. There’s always been a real European bistro feel to this place but there’s something new happening and it’s not just the refurb. Yes, the bench seating and tables have moved to the other side of the restaurant, the bar has been shifted from the front to the back of the restaurant, and there’s now a Read more
How would you feel if you just opened up your first ever restaurant, a Thai restaurant, only for someone to come along and open another Thai restaurant weeks later, literally just down the street from you? Having only opened around five months ago, that’s exactly what happened to the owners of Social Street S2 on Read more
SINCE WRITING THIS, THE HENRY AUSTIN IS NO LONGER OPEN
This place had so much hype leading up to its opening I was intrigued. And the official opening went on for days. It’s a bar, it’s a bottleshop, it’s a restaurant, no wait – it’s a takeaway joint… this place is actually everything all at once. Tess Footner and Max Mason, hospitality veterans and very well-known characters Read more
I recently went to the new Thai place in Hutt Street – Kin Kin Thai Eatery (not to be confused with Kin Thai in Waymouth Street, where I still haven’t been yet). It’s down at the southern end of Hutt – next to Kenji. It’s a pretty cool, simple fit out with a wall of happy and colourful photos of Thai scenes, people Read more
The Currant Shed used to be just that – a shed used to prepare and dry currants for exporting to the UK. When I booked into The Currant Shed for lunch recently, from my past experience I was expecting a good meal, but what I didn’t realise was just how good it was going to be. Unbeknownst to me, since my last Read more
On the weekend I took a trip down to Willunga to dine at the new restaurant that’s taken over the old Fino location. With Fino’s high standards, multiple awards and accolades, it took some brave people to take on the space, and those people are Tarik Marco and Sandrine Maltret a French couple who twelve months Read more
