Full disclosure: this post is drool-inducing and may result in failed diets and sudden urges to get in your car and drive to the nearest TGI Fridays venue. But in all honesty, we can’t think of a better place in Adelaide to shamelessly fill your face devouring a kilo of chicken wings than TGI Fridays.
