Plant 13

One of the advertisers on this page is the Bowden redevelopment which is construction of a whole suburb where the Clipsal factories used to be. Readers will see the Life More Interesting advertisement come up occasionally.  Click on it see the details of this new housing development.  Your reviewer visited the site of this development recently and found a garden, a café and an office housing the model of the proposed development.  The Café was called Plant13 and I paid it a visit.

Plant 13 is at 16 Park Terrace, Bowden.  It is the old Parkview Hotel and is referred to as Plant 13 because it stood between Plant 12 and Plant14 of the old Clipsal buildings.  The café specialises in American dishes and has plenty of seating inside and outside.  The lunch menu is brief, with American dishes like pork ribs, tortillas and fried chicken.  There are a range of American beers to drink with your meal.  It is also open for breakfast and dinner.

The hot chocolate came in a green ceramic cup and saucer topped with a froth and a sprinkle of chocolate powder.  The drink was good and rich and cost $3.50.
