Gouger St, along with Rundall St, is one of the main restaurant strips in the CBD.
North Adelaide has some great restaurants too - just take a leisurely stroll up King William Rd.

You could also duck in to the Lobethal oval and watch the Hills Footy League grand finals (my son is playing).
Other than footy finals, I think it's going to be a reasonably quiet weekend in Adelaide. And a bit iffy with the weather. There is the OzAsia Festival. Starts Friday and runs for a couple of weeks. The museum and art gallery are good. The Bradman Collection is great if you're a cricket nut. The Royal Adelaide Show is on - finishes Saturday night. Good city pubs are dotted around here & there. And good restaurants, like the Jasmine Indian restaurant in Hindmarsh Square. Best Indian in SA.
Have fun.

thanks stew, will see how we go, have not wheels to get around so might be a tad far this time around, but i definitely want to spend more time out there in the hills.

i hope your son's team have a win!!
Adelaide show, sounds good too, and the Bradman collection! i'm definitely going to have to come back!
