This review is for Banana Leaf Indian Restaurant, Adelaide SA

I was inspired by the Indian food in the area so I decided to give this one a try, I have to admit I have had better but this place is good for a quick meal.
They have decent $10 lunch specials daily which is not a disappointment. Their also presentable and hygenic.

What a surprising find! It has really good butter chicken, the best I have tasted in the city thus far. It is cheaper to take away for your meals. They have a meal deal going for approx $13 for 2 curries with rice, naan and a drink.
I'm super keen to try their other curries next time round. It is a very popular place for lunch, and service is quick

This review is for Adelaide Pho, Adelaide SA

This place is pretty decent, just got around to trying it recently. I do think that the places around Arndale are more tasty.
We just ordered the standard pho and we were not disappointed but not overly impressed either. Good place to have a quick decent Vietnamese meal.

Got me 2 naan take away from here while looking for something small to go with some other food I had.
They were already pre-made and they just packed it in a bag for me. When I got home and started eating, they were not that great. I liked the fact they used a whole heap of garlic in them, so they definitely had a nice flavour. But I think you really need to eat them while they're hot and fresh. And because they're pre-made... I don't know if they'll make new ones for you if you ask.
Also, the naan has gone up to $3 each since the last time I was here, so a bit pricier.

Ordered a Laksa from here as we were looking for something simple. Did a take away order.
Came in 2 boxes. One for the ingredients and the other for the soup.
Got home and started eating. Was only ok. A bit spicy, but not something that I would bother with again, knowing there are a lot of better ones out there.

This review is for Great Nature (Vegan Food Plus Vegetarian Groceries), Christies Beach SA

When we walked in there was some hot vegan food trays for sale. We had 3 choices with rice.
My partner was not much of a vegan but when he tasted the food he agreed with me, that the food was pretty good.
The food tasted fresh and healthy. A place I would definitely be visiting again.

This review is for Laksa House, Adelaide SA

I went to the Market Plaza Food Court over the weekend and found myself craving for some laksa after staring at the pictures they had.
I got myself a dumpling laksa which sounded the most unique. I have never seen this type of laksa offered anywhere else. I was service also immediately and my food came out shortly after. It was okay, I do think it was a little too chilly for my taste but overall the dish would be a 3/5.

This review is for Thu Nguyet Vietnamese Cafe, Adelaide SA

Was at the city today looking for a cheap easy meal and happen to stumble by this restaurant and I brought a roast pork roll.
The bread was crunchy, and the veggies seem fresh. However it did miss the point for me as I couldn't taste any butter, pate or sauce. It made the bread roll taste dry and hard to swallow.
I've tasted many nicer ones around the city so this one is one I won't be coming back to again.

This review is for Wong Kee Daily Yum Cha, Adelaide SA

If you don't want to go to an actual yum cha place and pay tea money and surcharge and all that, then this is another option.
You just order whatever you want from them and they'll either pass you a premade version or they will make it for you straight away. They have all the usual suspects and it still tastes rather good. But the actual experience with the tea and carts and all is lost. But if you're all about the food, then it doesn't really matter.

This review is for Ba Guo Bu Yi Chinese Restaurant, Adelaide SA

verified email - 28 Oct 2014

Looks like an authentic place and sounds very authentic, but the food is a little too lacking for me to consider it to be truly authentic. I'm sure the chefs are Chinese, but it might be the ingredients they use that just doesn't have the same taste as the stuff you can get in China.
However, don't let that stop you coz the food is actually quite good. I like all the different plates they use.
Some like it and some don't. I guess it's down to personal taste.
