The staff are really nice, too. They have usually taken the time to at least ask about my day, which in my book is a good thing. A bit of human interaction makes the day go by more nicely for everyone.

This is one of the stalls where you, when you pass it, should listen carefully to what the person…read moreis shouting. I tend to easily ignore those people and just look at the prices that are marked above the veggies but at Seven Brothers I found that those aren't always up-to-date. Especially if you go just before the market closes, make sure you listen to the specials because you can get stuff for ridiculously cheap. Apart from that, their prices always seem to be pretty good and I reckon it's one of the cheapest places for fruit around there.

As Alison P. pointed out Con's Fresh Fruit & Veg is one of the cheaper f&v stalls, which is why I…read moreoften frequent it. The frontage might look a bit old and dusty but it is just as good as the next door neighbour Thompson's. The prices are pretty competitive down near Grote St, and you can easily duck back and forth between stalls, choosing the best prices and quality. The stock here is of reasonable quality, although be sure to give everything the touch and smell check. I once bought some sweet potatoes here without carefully inspecting, and they were actually quite mouldy. The great thing about buying fruit and veg from small family stalls like this is if you really want, you can probably find out where the stuff is grown, and other details like that.

Very rarely does anything I buy go off or wilted within a couple of days. The fruit and veg on offer is not really strictly seasonal but a lot of it SA grown and you can get a good range of most things (aside from more unique things like baby spinach, rocket, chinese greens, broccolini etc). Service is always quick and I can get a full bag of produce for under $20.

This is one of the stalls I visit every week because it has THE BEST TOMATOES IN ADELAIDE. That's…read moreright, this innocuous looking, tiny little stall has the most amazing tasting tomatoes that you will ever eat, unless you have grown them yourself. I think that most of the population have forgotten how great real tomatoes taste. I especially like the ones that are bright red on the outside and a little green inside as they are sweet and tart at the same time. Did I also mention that the fruit and veg here is really cheap. You can buy pre packed bags of cucumbers, celery, carrots etc for $2. As well as the tomatoes the other produce that tastes great is the cucumbers and the capsicums. So for exceptional taste and value this is the stall to visit.

Poultry Cuisine pretty much does massive chunks of chickens…read more They are grain fed, and huge. It is a great place to pick up a chicken for a roast if you are entertaining guests or have a large family to feed. Prices are pretty good, about $5 a kilo for whole chickens, $4 a kilo for drumsticks and $3 a kilo for wings. If I am making fried chicken or something else requiring chicken parts i'll usually just grab a couple of drumsticks and wings to use. It works out a bit cheaper than using a whole chicken (which is a bit too much meat anyway) and I prefer meat which is on the bone. There is a lot of meat on the drum sticks, and even the wings, when compared the the scanty little things you get from the supermarket. There are, of course, also breasts and thighs available as well for those who prefer that cut. I'll usually get thighs if I am making a curry or the like. As well as whole and cuts of chicken, there are also more prepared meats such as schnitzels and sausages. The quality is there also and the prices remain quite reasonable.

Great poultry, but last time I was there I saw a sign saying 'halal' meat…read more I shopped elsewhere. Halal killing means the severing in one stroke, while the animal is alive, the carotid artery, the jugular vein and the windpipe, by a Muslim, who then allows the animal to bleed out. The issue with chooks is that it is hard to pre-stun them. Animals which have a cardiac arrest before the throat slitting cannot be 'halal'. A bolt to the brain from a humane pistol for larger animals, or severing the head of a chicken, are both kind deaths compared to the painful deaths many animals suffer under halal. I'll shop here again when I can be confident that the produce is killed humanely.

This is a great stall to come to for all of the more unusual ingredients; they have all kinds of…read morefruits and veggies which are hard to find anywhere else.

Much more convenient (if you're in the market than crossing the road) and much more reliably fresh ensured by a high and quick turnover.

Any kind of herb for a dolla a huge bunch and a small variety of things like bok choy, purple potatoes and other Asian greens also cheap.

Fortunately, there are a couple of specialty stores around Adelaide that do come to the party. Koreana in the Central Market Plaza stocks a wide selection of imported bright and pretty things from those wonderful countries that bring us Manga and Kim Chi. For my last visit I purchased some highly unusual, and overly sweet beverages (no idea what flavour they were, or meant to be) plus some spanktastic chocolate milkshake syrup (noice!). Although they don't have everything you could possibly desire, they do pack a huge amount into a small space, so make sure to take some time when you browse. Just back tracking for a moment, for those who have not joined the ranks us who worship Kim Chi I shall enlighten you ever so slightly. Kim Chi is basically Pickled Cabbage with some mad chilli spices in the mix. Be sure though to be careful which brand you buy, because some I have tried are a bit ordinary. Personally I like the most common one that you can find in a clear little tub with a clear lid (can't remember the name), you'll know the one when you see it.

Who likes Korean? MEEEEEE!!! KIMMM CHHII!! I love Korean so much. What do I love about it so much?…read moreWell, fermented cabbage and chilli my friend. Actually, there is a lot of Japanese stuff in this supermarket as well. But, if you are in need for a wide selection of Kim Chi or Gochujang, you have come to the right place. I am talking bipimbap central people. You will find everything you need here to create a masterpiece bipimbap or Korean bbq. There are also a whole bunch of noodles, dumplings, sauces, frozen veg and even soju. So much awesome! The store is located in a side alley of Chinatown. So, if you know Chinatown well, it is just off the middle courtyard and down the first alley to the right. I hope that makes sense. Because you should go out of your way to find this one. The only thing they do not stock here is fresh veggies. But, that is not a problem. You can get that in so many other places. Go forth and enjoy!

In addition to the entirely accessible, Barossa stocks some gourmet numbers which are perhaps a bit more risque, such as black pudding/blood saussage, emu posciutto and biltong (south african style dried beef). Try the kangaroo salami, it is really good and because kangaroos don't fart methane, it is good for the planet too.
