Trouble and Strife — Restaurant in Adelaide

Yeah OKAY! Lemme tell you! Firstly, incredible food. My favourite is this fresh chickpea smash thingy on yummy bread (my deepest apologies, I cannot remember the correct name). Truly, love me some of that. Oh man, it's like there's a party in my mouth and everyone's invited.

Wonderfully attentive and friendly service. For example, I had to explain a few times of ordering this meal that I can't manage to cut through the toasted bread with the butter knife that was given to me (Apparently I have the hand strength of a small child.) so I had to ask for an alike steak knife.. which they don't usually have but sourced one for me to use. From then on they remembered to give me that said knife without me asking for it. Now that's service. I am blessed.

The coffee is also worth a mention as it was amazing and you also have the choice of a cold brew. Absolutely recommend adding it to your list as you won't be...

Small with limited tables/seating. Not stylish or even very clean and tidy looking. No menus which I don’t like, especially when the menu is written on the walls and is then obscured with people waiting for their coffee take aways. Eventual table service, and they were not busy. Average coffee.

I had looked at the menu online and the Mexican Benny looked good, but didn’t deliver. Way too much on the plate. And WAY too much coriander, and despite all the potentially flavourful elements that were promised it was strangely quite bland.

Sasha had the BLT add halloumi and avocado (so a $22 sandwich). She said...
