You remember that hot chick you used to love seeing at school? ..and then you saw her a couple of…read moreyears later to find she let herself go so much you were all like, "What the hell happened to you...?" Well this is one of those. This Woollies has the distinction of going from one of the best Woollies in 2013 to (in my experience) the worst. Badly maintained produce, rarely stocked shelves, stock in the wrong place... it's a bit of a shambles. The staff are generally okay with a couple of really exceptional register and shelving staff that are the saving grace of the experience here. The major exception to this is a large island lady with short red hair that habitually snatches your card off you when you pay and thinks it's funny to mock customers that have trouble at the self service checkout. If there were a Coles here I would drop this place like a led balloon but it's the only action in town.

One of the bigger Woolworths supermarkets in Sydney; newly built and opened. While it is a larger…read morebuilding, luckily everything inside is nicely laid out, with plenty of room to move and lots of checkouts, including self serve. There are also iPads at the end of some of the aisles, if you want to quickly type in what product you're looking for and exactly where to find it. Fresh sushi is also made instore in front of you; with some sushi already prepared for purchase, but you can also ask if you want something custom put together. Fresh pizzas are also available and made in store; either pick up a premade pizza or custom order your own.

This is probably the best place to get your daily two fruit and five veg servings and any other…read moredaily food essentials. Peakhurst Fruit Shop is perfect if you want to avoid the long lines and questionable freshness of fruits at your local Coles or Woolies. Among the obvious variety of fruit and vegetables sold at almost every other fruit shop, Peakhurst Fruit shop acts doubly as a delicatessen selling a huge variety of cold meats and appetizers to satisfy any entree platter. However, the real prize-winner in this place is the fresh home-made gelato (which is too perfect for the upcoming summer months). If you want something a little sweeter than your healthy serving of fruit, be sure to top it off with a fresh scoop of gelato on your next visit to Peakhurst Fruit Shop.

Have you ever watched some cooking shows and thought about picking up some Indian spices and curry…read moremixes from nearby local store... Conveniently located inside Rockdale plaza is the Spice Market Indian store which comes in handy when I have these urges to cook authentic Indian food. The shop also has groceries from Nepal and Bangladesh. Everything manufactured in these countries from Biscuits to beauty products is sold here. It's a must go place for the local Indian and Bangladeshi community. The staff is extremely friendly and is always ready to help even if you don't know (the original name of) exactly what you are looking for. One thing that I noticed is that they have a lot of space and could do with adding more stock as many aisles look a bit empty. Adding more stock would increase their day to day sales and turnover. They also stock freshly made chapattis and other snacks/sweets made by housewives at home. Oh yes forgot to mention if you are a Bollywood fan - you can get access to a huge collection of DVDs and super cheap prices.

Which is pretty hard to find in most Asian markets. They had tons of Taiwanese snacks and drinks as well as a good selection of thinly sliced meats for hot pot.
