The Morphett Vale Function Centre is an excellent place to go for lunch (or dinner if you want live…read moreentertainment). The prices are incredibly reasonable with lunchtime mains costing from $9 to $14. This means that you could potentially have a three course lunch (including a drink) for $20, which is probably the best price I have come across (this includes the free soup of the day as an entree). They also have a small (but nice) salad bar that has a soup of the day special, small bread rolls, garden salads, potato salads and fresh vegetables (no pasta salad unfortunately but the other salads made up for that). When I went for lunch, I had a lamb shank, it was very tasty and was served with a nice creamy mash potato. Vegetable sides could also be grabbed from the salad and vegetable bar. For $12, the food is around what you expect however is quite pleasant and was seasoned and prepared well. I also had a $6 dessert afterwards, which was an excellent chocolate cake. The cake had incredible flavours and was presented very well. They also have a nice soup of the day available from the salad bar. The soup that was there on the day was very nice, in fact I would go as far as to say one of the best mushroom soup's I have ever had. The staff were also very attentive, easy to talk to and the atmosphere was excellent. I have also been here on a night time where they have the same sort of menu and tried some chicken from their stonegrill menu (this menu is excellent and I would highly recommend it). They also have entertainment on the weekend with a stage and a dining hall. Overall, a good dining experience and the function center remains a great spot for a good feed without opening your wallet too far at all.

Clipsal 500 V8supercars Adelaide. What an event for all…read morethe revheads, enthusiasts, racing car addicts, gridgirls, women, men and familys. Adelaide really put a fantastic weekend. There is no fuss and I always feel relaxed when I come here for the V8supercars. I was able to get a rock star parking spot for the car. My sister Deb and son Rory appreciate the closeness of the parking spot today. If your a fan of excitement, noise and fast cars of all categories this is the place for you. Adelaide is a relaxed place to be. It has a good variety of restaurants and coffee houses and pubs. With a short trip to the hills for scones with jam and fresh cream it definitely has lot to offer. Yes it is also the place that has many revheads and Bogans. God knows W.A.has its fair share of them too. Clipsal 500 V8supercars Adelaide. Great four day weekend, even though I was only here three. With concerts on Friday through to Sunday, Cold Chisel playing the Finale. The excitement in my blood and the extreme noise in my ears. V8supercars yeah yeah.

I am one hundred percent on board with Elissa on the 'eff you Clipsal and all that you stand for'…read morewagon. There we are every year having this fantastic festival season with people in the city all night, catching shows and live music, and Adelaide has this great summer festival vibe... and then Clipsal comes and takes a big dump on our fair city. When I worked in accommodation Clipsal was my most dreaded week of the year: the hotel would be filled with pissed men who had no regard for the people around them because they were just visiting and frankly, this event only encourages them to act irresponsibly. The promotions are seedy, the patrons are seedy, the grid girls are seedy, the whole thing in seedy. I wish Melbourne would take this gross misadventure back so we could all enjoy the festival season without the requisite dust cloud that is Clipsal.

Everything is fresh daily (apart from the sweets) and there are coffee shops few and far between down this end of the city worth even a look in while Phat is around.

There is plenty of parking, a crèche, Kiosk/lounge and change rooms. I've played some sports here and used to do gymnastics here as a kid, the atmosphere and competition is pretty good and they offer lots of mixed and single sex divisions to suit all abilities. Arts - A large dynamic venue for exhibitions, events and performances year round. I've participated in a few musicals in my time and performed one here. The facilites were great, professional and added to the whole performance, I felt like a star. I've also attended plenty of blue light discos here run by the police. This was always the best and biggest venue for teens to dance and hang at. The room was large, open, well equipped and has good lighting, sound and a DJ. There was a foyer area with a kiosk and toilets which was light and quiet to talk and gather in. Very versatile venue in a great area up North.

And very delicious coffee. What a way to start the day. For breakfast, I would recommend getting something between two with a couple of sides and sharing. If you are still hungry you can then go round two. Sit at the bar or nab a table in the lane. Bar is better because you can watch them cook. You can get an $8 toastie which is so, so good or something bigger that will involve above mentioned items. On weekends there are bloody marys with Fino sherry. Yum. After breakfast you can shop then come back and take advantage of the very delicious small plates and tapas whilst you take a break from your market shop. Or paella. AND they have a very good alcohol list. So if you are finished buying your non perishables, grab a seat at the bar, grab a wine/beer/sherry and a plate of jamon/chorizo/pintxos whilst reviewing your shopping list. You will never forget shopping items again. Excellent people watching spot too. Hire these guys for events.

They supply staff, caterers, hire and drinks to private and corporate sectors. AYBS have a fantastic reputation for providing efficient staffing, delicious catering solutions, drinks, complete with licensing and hire equipment for events ranging from boardroom lunches to private functions including weddings and other milestones. I have worked a couple shifts as a caterer and I cannot count on my hand the number of times I have been thanked for the service we provided for these functions. The staff are always lovely and have a smile on their face.

They were to provide me a list of ingredients to buy so that I could hire their cocktail staff to make the drinks on the night. They agreed that this was possible. 3 weeks before the function I wanted to change one of the drinks and they would not return my calls despite trying 3-4 times. When the finally got back to me via email they were rude and told me that "this was a service" they did not provide. Besides obviously not wanting the job anymore, the person who wrote the email was extremely rude.They have put me under significant stress, one week before my function, having to find new staff. Perhaps they are good for corporate events where people spend big dollars that aren't theirs. For the simple customer, I found their coordinator rude and horrible. At $45 an hour rate per staff that they were charging, I found this absoloutely unjustifiable. I cannot believe they they are still in business! I would not treat anyone like this.

They can do everything from a platter of sandwiches for your business meeting to offer a complete catering service for your next function. That complete service can include chefs, waiters and bar staff if you chose. This place really is a one stop shop when it comes to your catering needs. They also offer a BBQ service where they bring the barbie, the chef, the meat and of course will cook for your guests. You do however need minimum of 30 people. Now that really puts a new spin on the idea of the back yard barbie. In addition to their catering service A Cut Above Catering also stock a range of Heat 'n' Eat meals in their Partridge street shop. Much better than an old frozen TV dinner, I think these meals are great to have in the fridge for those times you don't feel like cooking or if you have an older family member who needs some help with their meals. Give these guys a try for your next function you won't regret it.
