Say Cheese is probably the biggest cheese stall in the markets…read more They have a huge range of both local and imported cheeses, as well as cheese accompanyments, such a quince and fig paste and crackers. Say Cheese has free cheese tastings on Thursdays, Fridays and, Saturdays (my favorite way to sample cheese) although it can be a bit sporadic so you have to luck out. Prices vary according to quality and the nature of the cheese, but you can be pretty sure to find something good for a reasonable price. Unless you are looking for dodgy cheddar or kraft singles, they'll probably have what you are looking for.

Ah, the central market. What a spectacular place. Full of smells, sights, sounds and tastes…read more There's one category of shop that the market keeps me coming back for. Cheese shops. "Say Cheese... by Jove; what do they sell?" said no one, ever. They sell Cheeeeese. What kind of cheese? All the cheeses of the world of course. Want something to grill? They've got Gruyeres and English Cheddar, Gouda and Provolone. Pizza? They have you covered with Mozzarella, Bocconcini, Fetta, etcetera. Platter you say? Get some Gorgonzola, Goats Chevre, Watsonia or smoked Cheddar, Brie, Camembert, D' Argental and more. They also sell crispy crackers, terrine, pate, fruit pastes and bread. Enough to make you dance around singing about cheese and then have crazy nightmares. Well worth a visit... every week for the rest of your life.

CHEESE......I can hardly say the word without deep, dare I say moderatley arousing feelings…read more I am not talking about your hunk of Colby or Chedder from the local supermarket.....funk no! I am talking soft, gooey, odourous cheese, with just the right amount of day old sock taste. The only place for this is The Smelly Cheese Shop in the Central Market. Imported from France, Italy and Tasmania (it's over seas), there really are not words that can describe the truely beautiful rich flavoured cheeses that this wonderful stall holds within its shelves. Yes, it is more expensive that a wedge of packaged plastic from the dairy cabinet at the local, but you will appreciate its worth when it hits your tongue. They stock some hard cheeses too, that are all well and good, but they just don't compare to a ripe Brie all squeezy and sticky and stuff.

The Smelly Cheese Shop is a wonderful stall in the Adelaide Central Markets…read more Laden with all manner of local and imported cheeses, there is more cheese here than could be tried in a life time. Big wheels are displayed about the store as well as more petite cuts in the glassed display area. Staff are knowledgeable and helpful, and are happy to field enquieries as to the character and origin of a certain cheese. As the name suggests, they are well known for their broad selection of blue cheeses.

Slightly more casual and accessible in presentation than the other cheese stalls in the market, there is no consequential reduction in the quality of the produce on offer. Their is a large variety of local, interstate and imported cheeses, catering to a range of budgets. They have a good range of feta, as well as cheese accompaniments (fruit pastes, crackers etc), dips, pates, oils and balsamics. Cheese tasting is on Friday and Saturday nights.

Probably one of the better coffees in Adelaide, coming from a harsh coffee critic. The customer…read moreservice is absolutely phenomenal and the whole vibe of the place just works. The main attraction once you get past the coffee is the pastries and baked goods! Having a connection to dough in the market clearly sets it up well to cater with such goods. Many different selections are on offer and since they are all delicious, it is merely a matter of how classy one wishes to feel. An Italian style croissant with a vanilla custard centre may be a substantial breakfast or if wanting a light morning tea, the various tarts on offer are all worth a good old Aussie shake of the sauce bottle.

You can pick up Coorong Angus beef, Pure Suffolk, Hay Valley Lamb, Limestone free range beef and my favourite, Spear Creek Dorper Lamb, as well as many other local products. If you're looking for cheap by all means shop at Woolworths across the way (many others do). But if you want quality produce for your guests where they can taste the difference, this is a great place to shop. They also have a great website with loads of recipes and an online store where you can order meat to be delivered. Feast at Unley offers truly outstanding products and lovely, old-fashioned service.

I don't eat meat so cannot comment on their red meat but Feast's stores have an excellent range of locally sourced, small producers. We can feel good supporting our local farmers who are providing unique produce and cuts. Very well displayed and tempting store and their staff are very happy to explain cooking methods and times. The sausages were yummy and I will be back to try their chicken, cinnamon and apple sausages or traditional gourmet chicken variety. High end prices but excellent quality product.
