You don't even get a revue. Sultanas are for sultana bran, not curries and not dozens of them. Meat is the base not over spiced sauce and mysterious pieces of stuff.

Mango Lassi was OK, Naan bread is very hard to stuff up and they really nailed the plain rice.

$45 not well spent. Highly unlikely to return

You were only a few kms from Beyond India. Never been disappointed there



Agreed Beyond India Butter Chicken and cheeses naan is always solid. Just trying to support a new local. Literally less than a km from my house and the Pizza bar, chicken shop and super market have never let me down.


Yep, rate those pizzas highly!

Sultanas are very common in curries.

I often chuck in a handful when I'm making a curry.

Had my first Burger Foundry experience at the new Torrensville store last night.

Beef, swiss cheese, mushrooms, tomato, rocket, aioli with added bacon and a serve of fries.

Beef was perhaps a touch over for the way I like it but a good size and still juicy, bacon + mushroom is my favourite burger combination and didn't disappoint, opted for the wholegrain bun which was a good call. Seasoning on the fries was quality. $21.50 for the burger, fries and drink but will definitely be back.

Burger Foundry were Adelaides number one burger joint but alas they no longer sponsor me so they are shit ;)

I reckon the place H3 put us onto on this thread has them covered just all kidding aside. Slightly better meat, cooler setting and a bit cheaper. Never had a bad burger at the Foundry though to be fair. If I had to fault them the resteraunt on Magill rd is comically small with very long waits. Their Rocky Mountain high burger is an absolute taste sensation.

Those that subscribe to Scoopon would've got today's deal for Burger Foundry.
Choice of 6 burgers plus fries for $10
(Add $4 for Angus Burger or $2 for any other burger on the menu).
Fair value me thinks...

I had the Aussie Burger when me and my girlfriend ate there, that was also sensational.

I'd like to go back there, I want to try there Sweet Potato chips as I missed out last time not realizing they had them until after I ordered.

Not sure where the Torrensville one is but 1927 Days is about 25 mins closer to your neck of the woods than the Foundry.

My girlfriend lives at Holden Hill so that's why we went to the one at Magill.

127 Days is on my to do list!

The new Foundry is on Henley Beach Rd, walked 5-10 mins straight down the backstreet from Thebby Oval.

Yeah I had a meeting at Thebby today and didn't see it so it must be a little tucked away.

I did venture over to the new Brickworks today and was taken back by the new facilities. There was a place in there in the corner that did a pretty good Yiros on the rotisserie for $10.

The other Burger place we have frequented was Burger It on O,Connell. Owned by the Mrs mates. A lot cheaper and a good feed but definitely a notch below 127 and the Foundry. I think it was in the ent book last year and you could do worse than that place. Nice location, indoor and outdoor seating and nice and clean. In the 7.5/10 zone

Almost any street south of Thebby would almost get you back to Henley Beach Rd.

Yet to have a bad Foundry experience.

However, if one finds themselves in London look up a chain called Byron Hamburger. It will be pricey at about 13 quid for an American style burger (standard cooking is medium) side of fries and a coke but top notch British service.
