Adelaide Food Critic

I am not sure it’s the air, the buzz, beeping cars or just my love for the French. Every time I get a chance to venture to Paris, I grab it! This time it was only for bare two hours, but I loved every second of it. The train ride from Paris Orly was quick [...]

The decision to leave cold and rainy Adelaide and exchange it for some soothing sun and end of summer warmth in France wasn’t really hard. Besides the long journey to the old continent everything went according to plan. However living in Australia teaches you to obey rules and be polite, that you need to forget [...]

The Pantry breathes vintage and looks and feels it from 20 metres away. That is a good thing if you are wondering. It takes you back to an era when family members of all ages got together in the kitchen to prepare and share a meal. It’s exciting, because you can hear all the stories [...]

On a rainy winter Saturday morning we decided to visti the famous Farmers’ Market in Willunga. Because we had to wake up early and drive down from the city, there was no time for breakfast. I am happy now that we didn’t have time. After getting some fresh veggies, and bread from local producers we [...]

At Unley cafe A Mother’s Milk, the three Rs are reuse, recycle and reshape. Their tables are made of old palettes, and you’ll be sitting on milk crates. For a while there, I felt like I was in hipster heaven. Don’t get me wrong, I like the interior aesthetic. It’s a simple, open space with [...]

A new venue has popped up like a beautiful flower after much-needed rain. It’s a new specialised pizza bar on Pirie Street. When passing by, you might see a glimpse of a wood oven and people enjoying their meals. This first impression of cosiness is replaced by a surprising spacious feel, and grand European cuisine. [...]

Attending a conference on the Gold Coast gives you the perfect opportunity to explore the gastronomic heavens of this tourist hotspot. You would be surprised how many Italian restaurants can survive on such a small piece of land. Following the advice of the Urban Spoon iPhone app, my new conference friends and I decided to [...]

Wild Thyme is one of those places you fall in love with. It’s nice, spacious, feels like home (a real one), with quotations on the wall and smiling people around you. You also pay a premium price for this feeling. I like the idea of an organic and real food cafe, where you can come [...]

I love Saturday mornings. It’s because I can choose from so many great places to go to for breakfast to. I don’t remember exactly how we found out about Red Door Bakery (even their website has a charm), but I think it was on our way back from Queen’s Street Cafe. After having a feast, [...]
