Yakumi, Glenelg

September 1, 2010 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit:  Sat 28 August 2010
Yakumi, a tiny Japanese restaurant on Jetty Road, Glenelg has been something of a favourite venue amongst my extended family for quite some time.  So much so that my uncle and aunt actually booked out the whole restaurant for my cousin’s 21st birthday.
So you might be thinking that you’re [...]

Taj Tandoor, Adelaide

August 23, 2010 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit:  Friday 20 August 2010
Our previous trip to the Taj Tandoor, on Rundle Street, was towards the end of last year, quite late on a busy Saturday night. On that occasion we enjoyed our food but were left underwhelmed by the service.
We headed for a return visit on Friday night – this [...]

The Village Indian Restaurant

May 3, 2010 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit: Friday 30 April 2010
We were tootling around town doing a bit of after work shopping and decided to grab something to eat. Andy nominated Indian and we headed down to The Village, on Gouger Street (close to Morphett Street).
The decision was driven by the fact that we’ve eaten at The [...]

Rigoni’s Bistro

April 22, 2010 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit:  20 April 2010
A friend is heading to Hong Kong for a 3 month stint and, as a final farewell dinner, requested something ‘not Asian’.  Having walked through Leigh Street that same morning, I suggested Rigoni’s Bistro, which I last visited in November last year for a wine dinner with Nicolas Belfrage MW, [...]

Kartees Indian Restaurant

April 5, 2010 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit:  March 2010
At Eating Adelaide we are keen eaters of curry.   One of my complaints while living in Headingley was that there was no decent, nearby curry to be had.  In fact, for an area with an above average population of students much of the takeaway food available was depressingly ordinary.  Other places [...]

Vietnam Sunrise

March 29, 2010 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit: March 2010
The relatively recent acquisition of a reliable car has meant that culinary forays can be made a little further afield than the CBD. An outing to Thebarton Theatre provided the perfect opportunity to pay a flying visit to Vietnam Sunrise.
I love Vietnamese food for its light, fresh flavours – a [...]

Tangritah Uyghur

February 18, 2010 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit:  December 2009
It was up to Andy to choose a venue for a Friday night dinner and, without hesitating, he knew he wanted to try out Tangritah Uyghur* on Grote Street.
This is a restaurant which is easy to miss – it is towards Morphett Street on the northern side of Grote, with a [...]

Farina

December 2, 2009 Restaurant Reviews

FARINA IS CLOSED.  THERE ARE RUMOURS IT IS MOVING TO NEW PREMISES …
date of visit:  25 Nov 2009
Adelaide has no shortage of pizza and pasta places … cafés line Rundle Street and menus merge in to one another.  It’s such a shame because Italy offers such a wide range of variations on the pizza and [...]

Mantra

November 18, 2009 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit:  Saturday 14 November 2009
As 12 of us sat down to dinner at Mantra on Saturday evening, our host (the birthday boy) turned to me and said “so, will I read about this on Eating Adelaide?”.
This is a tricky question.  Someone else has chosen the restaurant and organised the evening.  If the dinner [...]

Kathmandu Palace

November 16, 2009 Restaurant Reviews

date of visit:  Friday 13 November 2009
Never having tried Nepalese food before, I was keen to visit Glenelg’s Kathmandu Palace.  We were almost put off our visit by the hot weather but we were going to have to eat anyway, so we forced ourselves away from the air conditioner and down to the Bay.
Kathmandu Palace, [...]
