For many years, it was an unwritten law that Hahndorf had the best Chinese restaurant in the hills…read more However lately word is getting around that Hahndorf is off it's game. So for the first time in what must be 30 years, the question must again be asked, who has the best Chinese takeaway food in the hills? Balhannah is definitely in contention, I swear the same lady has been working there for at least 5 years so there's clearly some experience there. The location is pretty good. There's generally some pretty convenient parking available right outside. And the dine-in setting isn't terrible, with big windows looking out on the Balhannah main street. Plus they've got a byo alcohol licence, and the pub's next door. So you can totally have your fav pinot noir with your black bean beef. The food is also pretty good. The special fried rice is around the standard you'd hope for. One of my fav Chinese Australian dishes is sweet and sour pork. They do this quite well, I've had some shockers before. Also, just incase you weren't sure about value for money the prices aren't super cheap, but a large order does get you complimentary prawn crackers! Value! If Balhannah can be consistent, this could definitely be the best of hills Chinese food.

Heard from a few friends that live locally that we should give esculent a try as we really lack…read moregood food options in the area, so tonight we gave it a crack for the first time. First impression was it's got a very take away vibe to the shop itself which isn't a bad thing at all, just the standard fish and chip shot style counter and some seated area to the right of the store with a big screen tv which is a good touch for those who want to eat in. We ordered the esculent burger and small chips which came out in about 10 minutes from ordering and very fresh. The chips themself were fantastic and we loved the fact they had a selection of chilli sauces too! To the burger.... it was OK. Certainly not bad at all but just lacked a little bit of flavor for us, it was very fresh and pretty good value but just needed a bit more punch to the taste. Wouldn't mind trying some other menu items to see what they're like too.

Lovely intimate little place with open frontage and sea breeze, pretty bar and even prettier staff. The food was the best I've had in ages, and really good value. For $20 we got a marinara piled with fresh seafood, and my stuffed eggplant was delicious but so filling I did that 'so sorry I can't finish it really was delicious' apologising thing small serve eaters like myself have to do. It's a curse, it really is. The owner was lovely and attentive, checking in with all of his patrons regularly to make sure we were having a nice time. And we were! They had a great wine list and for a boozer like myself, this is paramount. There was a weird white sheet covering one wall and my mind was racing with possibilities of what it could be hiding: turns out they're renovating and extending the dining room. More Cucina Nuova I say! Piu Piu!

So after gazing out over the sea and then dancing at a wine bar in the afternoon with friends I decided to grab a dinner from Cucina Nuova before heading home. It's not on the waterfront, rather on Henley Beach Road but a quick and easy walk. Like many Italian style restaurant/cafes in Adelaide the menu is familiar sounding. Cucina Nuovo has familiar dishes, reasonable prices, and lovely staff. The food is nothing revolutionary but it's yummy and service is lovely. My waitress was a real gem. The only real bone I have to pick (the lack of originality is only a minor point) is that one of the menu items was listed as gluten free, as a coeliac I ordered the meal but asked my lovely hostess to specify to the chef that I really needed everything to be GF. I was then told that one of the sides which comes on the plate with this main (the pollo royale) actually contained wheat. It was an easy enough swap to rice and I was so glad they picked up on it but I don't ever recommend that an institution advertises a GF meal that actually isn't gluten-free. It's a warning to always double check for the consumer as well. After that issue the meal was prepared and I haven't been sick at all so they were very careful. The chicken was tasty and free-range but I would loved a teensy-little bit more moisture, the sauce was very nice (cream-based), the side salad fresh. I seasoned my meal with chilli oil which was lovely and it was nice to be able to add my own, personal level of heat to the dish. I can imagine coming to the beach with a bunch of friends, throwing on a cute summer dress after swimming, and settling down to some (gluten free!) pizzas and white wine.
