The bright variety of colours cry out that antioxidants are here for the taking. I do find it a little more expensive to shop here for produce over the supermarket, but it's SO much better quality and taste it's well worth it. There is also a wide variety of gourmet and continental foods and condiments, as well as dried fruits and nuts. In a nutshell - market fresh!

Botega Rotolo is a really good Italian/gourmet food store in Norwood…read more It is tucked away a bit, in an unobtrusive building on Osmond terrace which at first glance almost could pass as an accountant's office. Inside there are stacks of pastas, preserves, oils and vineagars and of course, fancy imported wine and cheese in which they specialize. In addition to functioning as a gourmet food store, Botega Rotolo also offer cooking classes at which one can be initiated into the cooking secrets of the Italian masters (like garlic is for slow cooking and onions for fast cooking and never the twain shall meet). The quality of the produce here is high and things are certainly not cheap, but it is quite good value considering what you are paying for.

Bottega Rotolo's cheese room is undoubtedly the best I've ever experienced. There's something…read moredecadent about those huge wheels of cheese. Maybe its not so much decadence as it is my arteries hardening at the thought of all that cheese but let's forget my arteries momentarily and talk cheese! As well as locally produced cheeses, their cheese room stocks products from Italy, France and Spain and those using a variety of milks and ingredients. Soft cheese, hard cheese, blue cheese, any cheese ... Don't let me give you the wrong idea though, Bottega Rotolo is not only about cheese. Just go inside and you'll find foods you never dreamed existed unless of course you're already a gourmet chef. If you are (or you're a chef in the making) and you're in the market for some couverture chocolate, Italian sparkling wine, truffles, imported pasta, or a spot of caviar - is your mouth watering yet - pay Connie and Rosalie a visit. Bottega Rotolo also hold their own cooking classes. After all what's the use of having all those ingredients if you don't know what to do with them. Their classes include everything from total hands on experiences to demonstrations as well as a combination of the two. They issue a new calendar of classes every couple of months and most are priced at $95. Located on Osmond Terrace at Norwood just before you get to the Oriental Hotel. In fact if you get to the Oriental, you've gone too far. Look for the famous Bottega "B" on their sign.

I was lucky enough to get invited along to the Norwood Community Markets not too long after they…read morefirst started up. I got to meet Chantalle, who runs the markets, and I got to sample plenty of things from the various stalls. I've been back a few times, and have got to see many changes at the markets, including the move to the beautiful Wesley Church on the corner of the Parade and Portrush Road. The market is a real mix bag, selling everything from vintage goods and clothing, craft, jewellery, fresh fruit, tea, and so much more. Regulars include an Indian curry stall which is always popular, and a book stall that support the Indigenous Literacy Foundation. There's the badge making stall for kids (you can bring your own pictures along, draw one, or choose from the ones available), as well as free kids activities, and sometimes you'll find a train for the kids or a jumping castle. Every time I head along I'm shocked that there aren't more people around. But I have a feeling that on some nice Spring & Summer markets they'll flock there. It's a great thing for the local community to embrace. The markets are on the 2nd & 4th Sat of every month.

They also have a website that I have quickly glanced at, and it seems quite comprehensive. It is right at the back of Norwood Mall opposite Coles and they stock a nice selection of organic stuff. They do coffee (didn't see what beans or soy) and a menu of vegan/vegetarian items that I'm keen to go back and try. A good spot for meet-ups with parents who have kids, since the playground and park is right there. It is run by nice people, which makes me want to go out of my way to support them and their business.

One of my main call cards for Norwood is to get my shopping done at yet another amazing Foodland…read more Now, this particular Foodland is one of the biggest of the Romeo Group. Set in the heart of Norwood shopping district and with a huge fan base, this groceries store has everything to offer. You are greeted at the entry by the large Deli section, fully stocked with the most amazing cheeses, meats, salads, roast chickens and seafood. All the produce is fresh and ready to be packaged up for you to take home. The staffs in the deli section are always busy! You will need to reach for a number as I almost guarantee you will need to wait your turn. They are happy for you to try different sliced meats and olives, so do not hesitate to ask to assist with your decision. As for the fruit and veg, it is generally well priced and fresh. You will find a good organic produce section here with a larger than normal. The fruit and veg are always arranged quite neatly and during the busy periods you will find staff constantly re-stocking. Like most Romeo Foodlands, you will find a very diverse range of products from around the world and a lot of locally sourced goods. They are very South Australian proud and I have found the most amazing local products here. One thing to mention about this store is the amazing bakery section. The bread, rolls, pastries and cakes are all of very high quality and are baked daily. You will find all different types of sourdoughs, rye, baguettes, pizzas, loafs, etc... I absolutely love the rye rolls here! Goes down well with cream cheese from the deli, avocado and Hahndorf Harris Smoked Salmon from the fridge section. Thanks Romeos for supporting South Australia!

On the afternoon I last visited the cafe the airy, stylish, and modern dining area was flooded with natural light.

I had tender and wonderfully spiced pulled pork atop a crisp bed if mixed veggies. It was filling and wonderful, though a bit on the pricey side at $17 for the serve. The selection of desserts are fabulous and flawlessly fresh. Always save room for desserts here!

The coffee beans here are bang on and it's brewed the right temperature. The crockery is all quite cool and trendy. Love the gold cutlery as well! I haven't eaten here yet. But the menu and salads look delish! A little more costly. But, very good quality from what I can see. You pay for what you get. I have eaten cake and slices here. All are the healthier style with nut blends and coconut butters. Last time I had the flourless chocolate cake. Very rich, tasty, not sweet and fulfilling for my 3pm munchies. Do stop in if you need nourishment in Magill. I would say this is the trendiest place in this area.
