Adelady + Hello SA

Calling all city foodies! Your next lunch break (or long, lazy dinner) just got a whole lot tastier. Two new eateries are set to call Rundle Place home from late October. Hanok Korean BBQ and Jarni Vietnamese are moving onto Level One. They’ll join six much-loved operators, including flagship favourites Doughballs and C9 Chocolate and Gelato, in what’s fast becoming one of Adelaide’s go-to food hubs.

Our Adelady Slumber Party at Hotel Alba is less than two weeks away, and we’ve got a FREE room for two besties to enjoy valued at $600! We’re talking an epic girls’ night with cocktails from Drink Frezza, endless drinks from Beresford Estate, Vale Brewing + UDL, a LIVE Adelady Unfiltered podcast, plenty of delicious food and late-night snacks from  Balfours, plus 10-minute head + shoulder massages from Blue Lagoon Float & Spa.

Yes, you read that right — Goolwa is home to one of the world’s best mini golf courses, and it’s an absolute must for family days out down the Fleurieu way. SHANX Mini Golf at South Lakes Golf Club is a $1.4 million labour of love, and it shows. The 18-hole course has been genuinely well designed, with contoured greens and clever course design rather than the usual windmills-and-loop-the-loops gimmicks.

Recipe Laura Bakhtiarian | Photos Naomi Giatas Smoky, crispy potatoes, creamy dressing and plenty of fresh herbs – this is no ordinary potato salad. Good-looking potatoes are great, but delicious potatoes are what really matter. Foodland’s Peculiar Picks range is all about making the most of produce that might look a little different, while still delivering the good stuff inside.

There’s a lot to love about Foodland’s own The Little Cheese Co. range, and their cheddar is exactly the kind of fridge staple we want on hand. Grate it into these golden corn fritters for that deliciously cheesy finish, or keep a block handy for toasties, burgers, grazing boards and everything in between.

Foodland’s Peculiar Picks range is about celebrating produce that may be quirky, but delicious! It might be a little wonky and oddly shaped, but it still tastes exactly as it should. These onions are particularly good at their job when slowly caramelised with a little brown sugar and balsamic.

Local drinks, local love When you’re stocking the drinks fridge, why not keep it local? Local Cellars is part of the Foodland family, bringing the same love of local shopping to your drinks trolley. You’ll find Local Cellars in South Aussie communities, with local operators who know their neighbourhood and their customers.

The Little Meat Co. is Foodland’s premium meat range, created for those nights when you want something delicious without making everything from scratch.

Twelve storeys above Halifax Street, something special is heating up just in time for summer. Matines, the new rooftop bar and grill inside five-star hotel Crystalbrook Sam, opens this December, and we’ve already pencilled in our first long lunch. The idea is simple: live-fire cooking, local produce and a very good excuse to stay for one more drink. The views stretch across the city towards the River Torrens, and the mood changes through the day.

We’ve got a bit of a soft spot for Never Never Distillery — and it’s not just because there’s usually a G&T involved. Born and distilled in South Australia, Never Never is all about doing gin a little differently. We’re talking big, bold flavour, clever local ingredients and seriously creative takes on what gin can be. Their Triple Juniper Gin is the signature for a reason — packed with juniper and made using a triple-concentrated process for a proper, punchy, classic gin.
