Café society regional style
We love cafes, don’t we? Wherever they are, there’s an enticing aroma of treats in store, perhaps a signature coffee or cake, and always the lure of a little time out. For us, the cherry on top of a café date is when the signature dishes showcase the local producers, and that’s exactly what these cafes are doing.
Come on over: Staying (and eating) local
We love the theory that this is the time of year things start to wind down and we can all relax. Here’s an idea. How about a little time out to tempt your taste buds as well as soothe your weary soul? Well, have we got a relaxing, tasty idea for you!

Need to add a little fresh air and delicious food to your life? Well buckle up, South Australia’s wilderness coast, fizzlingly fresh seafood and wide open spaces are calling you. Just think of it – fresh sea breezes, open vistas stretching across rolling farmlands to the wide blue sky.

Let us put a spring in your step with news of the latest venues to join us in the Eat Local SA program, introduce our tempting new app, and tickle your competitive streak with the chance to win a delicious dinner for two at Windy Point Restaurant.
