As a regular visitor to Adelaide, the city of Festivals, I can
definitely say that its a great place to explore and that there is good
food a plenty.
A really pleasant way to spend some time is at the Flinders Street market, open on Saturday and Sunday.
Market info here It's a mixture of handmade, second hand, some craft, coffee, cupcakes and more.

Last
weekend was the Adelaide Guitar Festival. That in itself was a good
reason to visit, with the range of guitar playing from classical, rock,
flamenco to jazz and lots of workshops.
Review from this gig
Adelaide Advertiser
The streets and parks around the city are also a good for walking. Plus there is a row of galleries and museums on North Terrace. Again some really great exhibitions to be had at various times of the year.

| Taste on Rundle |
 |
| Pizza from Est |
Another great place to grab a snack is Taste on Rundle Street. From the front it looks like a tiny shopfront with a few tables and chairs. Out the back is a marginally bigger area. They do great coffee, plus pastries and other savoury food. The bacon and poached egg baguette with hollandaise sauce is delicious.
Its at 214 Rundle Street.

Then my latest find was Est on East Terrace. Tiny place, tiny menu, mainly pizza, but with some pasta. My regret was that I was on my own and couldn't eat both pizza and pasta. Oh, well, I'll just have to go back. My pizza was yummy, prawns with rocket and truffle oil. Light and crispy. Staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely on my list to revisit.

If you like a larger menu, another favourite Italian restaurant is Amalfi on Frome Street. Definitely try the antipasti plate.
