Adelaide Hills Day Out

May 14, 2012 Restaurant Reviews

date of day out: Saturday 5 May 2012 A group of friends recently organised a day out wine tasting in the Adelaide Hills. We had a reasonably modest agenda for the day – lunch and three, maybe four, wineries. For me, the day proper began at lunch time. Our original food plan was scuppered so, [...]

Flagstaff Hotel

May 7, 2012 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit: Sunday 29 April 2012 It’s been quite a while since I’ve written up a pub meal (the most recent I think is the Victory at Sellicks) and I think it might even have been that long since I’ve eaten in a pub. Anyway, I’m going to rectify that with two pubs in [...]

Hyde Park Tavern

January 19, 2012 Restaurant Reviews

    date of visit:  Tuesdsay 17 January 2012 I’m one of these people who spends far too long thinking about where to eat which makes a simple lunch date a three hour exercise in research. After quite a bit of agonising I decided I was being ridiculous and I should just choose the venue [...]

The Stirling Hotel

January 6, 2012 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit: Wednesday 14 December 2011 Time off work as a family is a bit novel in our house but we have visitors from overseas so we’re trying to maximise our opportunities to do stuff. And of course, a fair bit of that ‘stuff’ involves eating. With my initial first choice of lunch venue [...]

Robin Hood Hotel

October 17, 2011 Restaurant Reviews

    date of visit: Thursday 6 October 2011 As soon as I knew I was off to the Sapporo launch I started thinking about where we were going to eat our dinner. We would need something quick and light and close to the Robin Hood. After a little head scratching, it was decided that [...]

Morphett Arms Hotel

October 6, 2011 Restaurant Reviews

    date of visit:  Thursday 29 September 2011 Sorry – no picture of my schnitzel this time – I am self-conscious taking photos when out with friends! A quick mid-week visit to a pub with a couple of friends.  I don’t know what made me do it, but I actually rang up and booked [...]

The Victoria Hotel

September 8, 2011 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit: Sunday 28 August 2011 Writing a review of a pub can be tricky. If the pub fashions itself as trendy or cutting edge, with a more interesting than average menu then the review is relatively easy – either things have worked or they haven’t. But sometimes, a pub is … just a [...]

Seven Stars Hotel

August 30, 2011 Bar Reviews

Photo thanks to Scenic Adelaide.  date of visit: Tuesday 16 August 2011 Often a meal out, especially to a pub, simply involves turning up, ordering a chicken schnitzel parmigiana, eating said schnittie and then going home. There’s not a lot that’s taxing on either side of the hospitality fence. However, I recently volunteered to organise [...]

Holdfast Hotel, Glenelg

February 4, 2011 Bar Reviews

date of visit: Wed 2 Feb 2011 I was quite excited to be heading to the Holdy: I haven’t had a schnitzel in what seems like ages and I went through a stage of drinking (responsibly, of course) at the Holdy on a Friday after work (quite an achievement as, at the time, I worked [...]
