Having been in Perth for the weekend, I was missing the small things about my big city home. Do…read moreyou ever have that feeling when you walk in some place and you feel like home? That's the feeling I had when I walked in to this Tesco. Perth is a pretty small town, not too much going on after dark, Scone Palace (amazing place, please visit!!) and a few hotels for passing through visitors. So, when we were out one night and wanting some snacks for the hotel, it was amazing to find Tesco and be reminded of the comforts of our city life. Sounds silly, I know, but it was great. This Tesco was pretty much set up the way they are all over the place, you walk in and instantly are greeted by the to go items like sandwiches, snacks, crisps and drinks. There's a great fruit and veg section just beyond and then the usual aisles of great items to purchase. We were able to buy our snacks at reasonable prices and head out happy with our purchases.

This store continually changes the location of goods to an infuriating degree for no good reason…read more We're talking a needlessly frustrating level of tinkering. The staff are friendly enough but seem to have less of a clue as to the location of products than the customers. The other main gripe is the unwritten rule that at least one of the self check out machines must always be broken. The place is generally cleaner than most supermarkets

This M&S Simply Food is a great addition to Perth; its conveniently located on the outskirts, just…read moreoff the Inveralmond roundabout, so uber handy for nipping into without the faff of going in to the town centre for the main M&S. It has a good selection of groceries available and includes a fresh bakery at the back corner (yeah I see what you did there markies, you tempt me with fresh bread wafts and hope I pick up other stuff en route and yep, I swiftly oblige). Aside from groceries, it has a cafe offering up tea, coffees (flat whites are spot on!), cakes and hot food for sitting in or taking away - ideal for me as it breaks my drive and means I can stretch my legs at the same time! So far, no complaints here, keep up the good work!

Their bakery goods were mostly gone by the time we stopped by, but the pre-packaged cakes were utterly adorable. Came across boundless types of Pringles and Kit Kats that we don't have in the US, I'm jealous. But they did not have flavoured coffee creamer. I don't understand.

A.S.D.A: Americans Still Don't Agree with a lot of what I say, but maybe the Scots will…read more First-Hand Experience: I visited this store because it's built where the stadium used to be, and the money from this store helped the stadium. All I bought here were bananas and a drink. Everyone was perfectly friendly, but because it's a Walmart type chain, I'd give it a 2 or 3... except that they saved the club. So they get a 4. I don't like ASDA, I just like making acronyms out of their name. However this particular ASDA, which I went to as a token of appreciation when I played my concert in Perth (one time only, have never been back), because they saved St. Johnstone. The stadium here was falling apart and was probably going to be closed down and the club had no money, but this store bought the land, and paid for a new stadium to be built in the west of town. Not sure why or how they did it, but thank you for saving the club. ASDA has pretty good prices even if they are the Walmart of the UK.

**WARNING** This is a lengthy review and you WILL be hungry after reading!…read more Just outside Perth and a short detour from the A9 lies Tibbermore (I know, cute right!), a typical 'blink and you'll miss it' kinda place, but really, just don't blink cos this place is awesome! It really does have it all - fresh fruit and vegetables all leafy and colourful, a gin lovers corner, wonderful cheese and meats deli, health foods section including a variety a GF flours, breads and oatcakes (try their own oatcakes, completely different from the brand that sounds like Talkers but sooo much tastier!), tray upon tray of freshly laid eggs...I could go on but you get the idea! And that's just the food section! They also have a glorious gift section where I could've easily spent a small fortune. Everything from kitchen gadgets to picnic baskets, kiddie gifts to Emma Bridgewater pottery and everything in between. I spotted a few local producers too which I loved as I always like to see locals businesses supporting each other. Then there's the café/restaurant which has a few outdoor tables but plenty inside if they're taken; the day I visited it was glorious but somehow we got lucky and got a table outside (my shoulders can prove that #scottishtan!...). The menu has lots of tasty options incorporating as much of their own produce as possible - I opted for the Homemade Chicken Liver pate while my parents both had the Smoked Ayrshire Ham & Gloagburn Curried Banana Chutney sandwich (Dad went hunting for the ham to buy later he was that impressed!). Once decided, we had to go inside and order at the counter; I'm not sure if this was due to us sitting outside or standard practise as when we asked for a second round of coffees (and some more oatcakes for me as I'd ran out!), a waitress came over with one of those electronic hand-held thingys to take that order so I wondered why she couldn't have done that initially, anyway, not really a star-affecting issue. Pricewise, we were just shy of £10/head for a sandwich and coffee (exc our 2nd coffee round), a tad steep but it's all fresh and local produce so I don't mind paying that when you know you're getting good quality (and it really was!). Given it's out-the-way location it's a busy wee place but worth the trip as you could easily spend a couple of hours here eating and browsing. There's plenty parking available and even a small play area for kids. Farm Shops like this don't come around too often, which is a shame as they really are wee gems of places!
