Editorial


Back in the day, ladies who liked to lunch would don their gloves and spend the day at David Jones or Mark Foy's. High tea, shopping and the tinkling of the baby grand kept them amused. Today's department stores don't often bother with a restaurant; luckily for Adelaide shoppers Chris Jarmer @ Air is the exception to the rule. Set beneath the city's flagship David Jones, Chris Jarmer offers light relief or much needed sustenance to carry on an afternoon of purchasing.

 Breakfast is available with standard offerings such as omelettes, bacon and eggs, or French toast. There are entrees and light meals for a quick pause between purchases; try the Waldorf salad or the Thai chicken salad. Main courses include chicken with red curry or double marinated and char-grilled octopus served with an avocado and rocket salad. The noodle bar offers some great Asian inspired dishes; laksa is available with chicken, beef, seafood or combination, and the kwai tul (fresh rice noodles with Chinese sausage, beef, chicken, bean shoots and spicy sauce) is delicious. The real beauty of the restaurant is if you've maxed out your Visa or Amex they will accept your DJs card.
