I would like to see Melbourne start to evolve away from the café culture that we have created and…read morestart to create a bigger deli scene. It is hard to beat a home cooked meal that you can buy where you have not done all the hard work and tastes better than you could have done yourself. As the Albert Park Deli is open quite late you can always change your mind about cooking dinner and grab one of their delightful, flavoursome, hearty meals to take home. The moment you walk inside to look at the display cabinet you realise that you are going to be here a while. A known pastime at the Albert Park Deli is to sit out the front for the whole day and enjoy breakfast, then lunch, and order dinner to take home. I recommend giving it a try someday.

They have a great selection of tinned goods, breads, other baked goods. The deli section is very…read morecheese heavy, some meats and sausages. Also beans and pulses. A great little continental deli that has a coffee machine and does catering platters. The liver wurst I bought didn't knock my socks off but the pastrami made me swoon. As did the semi sundried tomatoes. Wow ! I'll be back for them. Plus I saw a barilla pasta shape I haven't seen before so I'll be back for pasta too. All up a good location nxt to the organic veg shop, two fresh bread shops and a supermarket.

I went to cheese stores all through Melbourne and around Brisbane and this was where I found the greatest selection of cheese made in Australia. Upstairs has a variety of boutique products from granola to chocolate. Also, there is a gelato counter and espresso bar as you enter the store.

This place looks like nothing more than a gelato shop from the front, so you'd be forgiven for not…read morerealising there's a whole specialty grocery inside -- and they also do delicious made-to-order artisan sandwiches to take away. To get a sandwich, bypass the gelato out front and go inside, then bypass the groceries and head straight to the back. There's a cashier here who will take your order and bring your sandwich out to you after about a 10-15 minute wait. I love this place because of their four vegan sandwich options: a tofu salad open sandwich with sesame and lime dressing; a bagel sandwich with a tofu and corn fritter and curried cashews, cucumber, and coriander; a tempeh burger on focaccia with kimchi and ABC sauce; and an eggplant, pumpkin, spinach, white bean, and basil pesto on focaccia. If these descriptions don't have you drooling right now, I don't know what's wrong with you. All vegan sandwiches are $11.50 and come with potato chips. This is a fair price for a delicious and rather filling lunch. Their non-vegan sandwiches aren't much more expensive either. My favorite is the tempeh burger with ABC sauce -- it's like an Indonesian sweet soy sauce -- oh man. Just the right mix of unusual but awesome flavours. There's no seating here -- it's take-away only, unless you're out front having a gelato. While you wait for your sandwich, you can peruse the specialty grocery items. They have a small but impressive collection of hard-to-find and locally-made items, such as La Tortilleria tortillas, local hand-made chocolates, jars of refrigerated kimchi, and chips made from all manner of non-potato things -- kale chips, bean chips, turnip chips.... Just be prepared for some sticker shock. These specialty groceries don't come cheap. (One of the chocolate bars was $14!!! It better be chocolate CRACK, at that price.) All in all, a great place to come for an awesome take-away sandwich with fresh and often unusual ingredients at lunchtime, and a fun place to peruse if you like your exotic, organic, hand-made/hand-dipped/hand-chopped/hand-crafted/hand-tooled/hand-whatever fancy-pants specialty grocery items. You know who you are. (Note the sandwiches are a Monday-Friday lunchtime thing only. I came once on the weekend and they weren't making sandwiches. The gelato is available all the time, but I admit I haven't sampled it yet.)

King & Godfree is a food paradise. As far as Melbourne delis go, this has got to be one of the…read morebest. The shelves are lined with every artisan product imaginable. If you're preparing a special meal, you'll find everything from sauces and spices to sweets and specialty items. Speaking of sweets, if you've ever wanted to eat your body weight in Nutella - these guys can make that happen. There's also a bottle shop I here, with a great range of local and imported beers and wines - even a hidden cellar past I the iron gate. Deli wise, loads of cheese and meat options to pair with your meal or picnic basket goodies. They sell Port Melbourne's amazing Pure Pies here too, which is ordinarily worth crossing the river for - but unnecessary if you stop here. Ideal for: picnic baskets, party preparing, cooking up a storm, booze hounds.

On the corner of Lygon Street and Faraday Street you cannot miss it. The store is massive as it opens up with a boatload of wine to choose from originating from countries all over the world. They also have an interesting range of different oils, biscuits, chocolates, and nuts. Think gourmet produce. One of my favourite aspects is the deli with plenty of cheeses, cured meats, and other fresh produce prime for sharing tapas style.

If my cholesterol-levels would allow it, I'd have the chopped liver every time :) Our kids love their meat pies with tomatoey minced beef and tasty chicken sausage rolls. And the kids schnitzel and chips is a steal for a huge serve at just AU$8. There are cute cookies for kids, and seriously yummy biscuits for adults. Don't go past their chocolate babka or poppyseed Danishes. You won't regret it! Best of all, service is attentive and amazingly friendly. A gem of a cafe on a deserted row of shops in Glenhuntly.
