Saints Kitchen: A New Dining Experience in Salisbury Plain
Foodie lovers rejoice; there is a new hotspot just 20kms north of the CBD. Saints Kitchen is the brainchild of a passionate and proud Adelaide family and we are so excited to see their arrival at the NEW Saints Shopping Centre on Main North Road in Salisbury Plain. This exciting new venue is co-owned by Gaby and Cathy Haidar, Danny and Marissa Haidar, and their cousin Tony Nastasi. This dynamic family has been in the hospitality game for a very long time, so they know exactly what they are doing.
Saints Kitchen is a large, bright, and open eatery with tasteful modern decor. It really has the CBD vibe in the heart of the North. The bar area has a floor-to-ceiling brickwork design with foliage hanging from the ceiling. If you are a sweet tooth, you have to check out their dessert cabinet.
The Food Experience
So let’s talk about the food—Boy, oh Boy does Saints deliver! We were lucky enough to be invited to their official launch on Friday, the 21st of June, organized by our good friends at Adelaide Food Bloggers. The evening showcased a sample of items from their menu. One of our favorites was the Buttermilk Fried Chicken. If you love crispy, flavorful, and moist chicken tenders, this is the dish for you. Their pizzas are delicious, and you will savor every mouthful. The flavor combinations of the toppings are out of this world. You must try the Prawn and Avocado; they are extremely generous with their servings of prawns. Then there were the slow-cooked beef cheeks—what a mighty dish this was! We are still salivating at the thought of it.
Breakfast Tower and Brunch
One of the features on their menu is their breakfast tower. If you are looking for an Instagrammable brunch place, well, this place is right up your alley. The breakfast tower has everything you could hope for: think haloumi, chorizo, bacon, eggs, vine-ripened tomatoes, the most buttery mushrooms that ever existed, as well as fresh toast. And if you don't think it could get any better, the tower is topped with a fluffy pancake complete with blueberries and ice cream. Their extensive menu is extremely impressive, and we are so excited about what this place will do for people in the Northern suburbs.
Sweet Treats
If you like your sweets, Saints will definitely have you coming back for more. We also sampled some of their signature dessert items and were absolutely blown away by their sundaes served in fish bowl martini-style glasses. We also tried beautiful pancakes with salted caramel and popcorn, the most fudgy chocolate brownie, some classic pastries and puffs, as well as some healthy treats supplied by Raw Earth Desserts. Our personal favorite was the Banoffee Pizza, a beautiful banana, caramel, and cream delight on top of a pizza base complete with chocolate shavings.
Gluten-Free Options
This place has something to cater to all tastebuds, and if you are gluten intolerant, they have your best interests at heart as they offer a variety of gluten-free dishes. This new venue is sure to be as popular as the family's other success story, Cafe Sia. The northern suburbs have been crying out for an eatery like this, and thanks to the Haidar and Nastasi families, this is now a reality.
Conclusion
If you are looking for a new place to dine, we guarantee that Saints Kitchen will not disappoint, and its arrival signals the start of the New North. We feel the northern suburbs are going to boom in the next few years, and venues like this one will thrive as the region grows.
