| Food Adventures | Saturday Brunch | The House of Donkey |


I previously blogged about my Food Adventures at The House of Donkey for my birthday lunch last year with a girlfriend. 
You can see all the mouth-watering photos in my post HERE.


Local art work, jewellery, and wooden trinkets adorn the surroundings.

Fresh and local persimmons on our table :)


The breakfast menu was set to 5 options - all sounding equally delicious! It look us ladies quite sometime to settle upon our choice. We decided to each try a different menu option and eagerly awaited its arrival.


The asparagus and avocado marriage was my choice for brunch. Beautiful!

'The Hens Green Garden'  
Two poached eggs on sourdough served with lemon, wilted spinach, avocado, asparagus and a mustard vinaigrette. ($14.00)

'Mr Billy'
Two poached eggs on sourdough served with cumin roasted pumpkin, goats cheese, fresh rocket and herbs served with a citrus, balsamic and walnut glaze. ($14.00)

'Breakfastor Wraptor'
Scrambled egg, fresh spinach, tomato, basil pesto and cheddar cheese in a tortilla wrap. ($9.00)


The fresh juice menu was impressive and unique. I decided upon the Punch of Spicy Life.


The cute donkey mural near the counter. Love this donkey!


The House of Donkey's quaint and welcoming Sturt street terrace frontage.


The House of Donkey can be found in Adelaide's CBD.

| Autumn in Hahndorf |

Hi everyone,

A few weekends ago I ventured on a road trip with Mr W and his family to a sleepy town nestled in the Adelaide Hills named Hahndorf. We had organised a lunch date in Hanhndorf that day for Mr W's sister, who was celebrating her birthday.

Hahndorf is a beautiful little town with its pretty, tree-lined street, and is the oldest non-British settlement in South Australia. The main street is filled with restaurants, cafes, lolly shops, ice creameries, as well as other quirky places like the German Cake shop (which we visited) with walls covered with cuckoo clocks and painted plates. Unique & fascinating to discover, Hahndorf is the little gem of the Adelaide Hills.

Hahndorf is heavenly in autumn & winter. Crisp cool air and a surprisingly busy hustle & bustle comes to the town on the weekends with the influx of tourists and city escapees (like me). I always associate a cosy feeling when I visit Hahndorf in the cooler months. It's a time to put of your warm winter jacket, scarf, boots, and do some exploring.    

Hahndorf's timeworn buildings tell the story of past to present




The Hahndorf Candle Barn had some of the most fragrant candles I have encountered to date. My favourite, was the 'Freshly Brewed Coffee' candle. Obviously.




The ever so quaint Hahndorf main street, perfect with autumn leaves

So many fudge varieties to choose from
