Just... delicious!

New to Eat Local SA

Arbour Kitchen

South Australian savvy in the kitchen equals bright, fresh combinations on the plate.

Feed Me Pizza

Think of your favourite South Aussie smallgoods and cheeses and look for them on top of these great pizzas.

Wine tasting plus

A morsel of lunch always makes a wine tasting better. The lunch menu at Angas Plains Wines includes small and large dishes ranging from grazing platters and homemade soup to pie of the day, curry or pizza, all created with produce from South Australian favourites including Paris Creek, PJ’s, Talinga Grove, and Two Hills and a Creek.

Cheesefest+FERMENT

The indefatigable Kris Lloyd is bringing back Cheesefest and FERMENT The Festival too, so it’s a double order for lovers of chocolate, cheese, wine, kimchi, kombucha and every other fabulously fermented food when the two are dished up together this coming October. Check out the full program and take advantage of the discount online ticket price here.

Bus stop with a difference

If you lurk in the Urrbrae area of Adelaide and have a hankering for a proper jaffle, you’re in luck. The Old School Bus is in town on Thursdays, parked on Hartley Grove on the Waite Campus. According to the drivers of this bus, if you’ve never tried a jaffle before, these will change your life. Go get ’em!

Meet the brewers!

The brewers from Migration Brewing (USA) and Smiling Samoyed will be getting together on 4 September for a shared feast with Chef Outta Water’s Chris Holen. There will be Alexandrina cheeses, Matchett’s crackers, Ellis smallgoods, S&P squid, wood oven pizzas and a whole lot more, plus a tour of the brewery. Book here.
