Review
Welcome to the Feed Report, the #2 Adelaide food blog! (Urbanbspoon '15) I'm Daniel Piechnick.
Between 2013 and 2015, I visited and reviewed almost every remotely fancy restaurant in Adelaide (other than the crap ones, and lunch-only places.) I now only report occasionally, to add new restaurants.
I can't cook, and have no understanding of fine cuisine, other what I know from eating it. As such, I believe I'm uniquely unqualified to write about this topic. I just give high ratings to whatever tastes good.
Right. This is a typical family pub. The bathroom tiles add appropriate ambience.
I scour the menu for something fancy, but only the steaks are above $20.
Since the place is inexplicably a steakhouse, I'll give them a...
I used to live in Stirling, but I don't remember this place being as big as this. It's probably the largest typical two-storey pub/hotel I've been to.
There is another (presumably less-salubrious) restaurant in the same...
After fifteen minutes of heavy city traffic, I escaped the city, for an endless drive through winding, dark, foggy roads that took an hour.
The road was so twisty and undulating that my pedometer app thought I was going...
Another drive into the hills.
This place is a rather imposing house, on its own land. The place is a warren of rooms. I explore a little bit, and find the waitress.
I'm seated next to the fire. :)
I don't know what a jimmy is, but more than one of them have started a restaurant. If someone named Jimmy is the namesake of this restaurant, the name would typically be Jimmys or Jimmy's.
I find a spot of pedantry can...
A long drive to Echunga. Let's hope the feed is good. :)
This is the first in my "Hills of Feed" series, where I visit fancy restaurants in and around the Adelaide Hills.
The decor here is basic, but the place has an...
After mopping up a few new (and recategorised) Adelaide restaurants, it's time to head to restaurants that are further afield. This starts next week.
Almost all these places are in the Adelaide Hills. Here they are:...
There's been a bit of buzz about this relatively new restaurant. The place looks a bit warehouse-y, but is packed. I'm seated on a stool, at a kind of bar.
Parlamento is opposite the casino. I've been here a few times before, must often in search of feed, after going to a series of other restaurants nearby, only to find they don't exist. Since then, Parlamento has moved up...
As I understand it, this restaurant was set up by people who used to work at Penfolds Magill Estate, which is probably Adelaide's fanciest restaurant.
Tonight is degustation. This is the only other degustation-only...
