Get your $6.99 rump here, get your $6.99 here, you won't FIND prices this cheap anywhere else,…read more$6.99 for your grain fed rump everyone, come on up. I have respect for these guys who stand in front of shops and yell out the specials. The young man was particularly cute on this day when I heard the speaker go, so I went to check out his 'rump steak'. MMmm yes, very tender. Perving aside, thus started my 15 year love affair with Andrew's Quality Meats. It sounds gross, like who the hell has a love affair with a butcher shop? Me. Okay? They always do a great rib fillet. They do $2.99/kg chicken drumsticks practically all year round (my honey soy drummies are fantastic), the cuts are always good ones, not sloppy fatty ones (you know what i'm talking about), they do a great roast chicken breast with macadamia and cranberries inside (oven roasted 180 degrees celcius for 40 minutes) and they do amazingly lean sausages that taste even better than the fatty ones. They will french cut the pork rack for you, they will practically kill a cow and slice the rump off if they are out, they will crumb your lamb cutlets in front of you if they have none in the display window. In fact, Andrew even told me how best to cook my rib fillet roast as i'd never cooked one before all those years back. The shop was busy, and he took the time to pull mea side and make sure I knew what I was doing, to get the best out of the great cut of meat i'd just paid for. They also do family packs, bbq packs, cheap bones and mince for your dogs... the mince is minced fresh daily as well. 2kg of Premium 4 star beef mince for $16. 4 stars people! The meat isn't glad wrapped up, they do great turnover and they take orders over the phone, there isn't much these great bunch of guys won't do. Ask you how your day is and mean it, oh sorry, there are a couple of ladies there to. Definetely get your meat here, if you're into the freshest meat around anyway.

Fresh Seafood delivered weekly on a Thursday…read more The prices at this place are pretty comparable to that of a fish market, their produce area always fresh and they have 2-3 types of salmon that you can grill up and crispy skin. The guys behind the counter are always very knowledgeable about where the fish are from and are pretty honest about the way to cook them, and if they're not for you. All that aside though, what I really really super duper love about this place, is their half price cooked seafood after 4pm everyday! Woohoo! Get a huge crumbed basa fillet and some chips for $3? How can you beat that. Just wait a little and the big sign will appear on top of the counter and away you go! They also have a seafood shop in the foodcourt of Mt Ommaney Shopping Centre so they must be doing well.

This place is pretty good for a fishmongers located in a shopping centre. It is decent in size and they have quite a trendy looking fit out... For a seafood shop that is. I like it! Of course, in addition to its attractive appearance, it does stock quite the range in fish and other seafoods. I especially love their big king prawns in the front window. It gets me time and time again. I could never resist purchasing a kilo or two. You'll find plenty of fish, prawns, squid on display and some chilled products in their fridges. The staff are very helpful and really know their stuff when it comes to fish. I'm still new to cooking seafood creatively, I usually, like to just slap it on the grill and douse it in lemon juice. There is plenty of time to learn different ways of cooking seafood, but for now, I'm getting hungry just writing about it. I think, it's time for me to stop by there today and buy a few bags full of seafood. And I think, you should too! Just in time for the weekend.

They have a huge range of stock, including fresh organic fruit and vegetables, cold goods and supplements in a surprisingly large store. The assistants are friendly and knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions you might have. I go in for their supply of 'Lentilicious,' one of the many locally produced products for healthy living they have in store and their organic fair trade coffee. Even if you aren't sold on organic foods, its a great place to find healthy, nutritious food stuff.

As far as health and organic food stores go, Mrs Flannery's in Taringa is one of the best ones I…read morehave been to. This mainly due to the size allowing them to really fill up the place with a wide variety of goods. I am used to health food stores being the size of boutiques, not much larger than and average sized bedroom kind of thing. Surprisingly, 'Mrs Flannery's' is the size of a small IGA or your local food store. It has a few aisles like the ones you find at the Supermarket! Here you will find, organic cereal, wide range of nuts and whole grains as well as natural household and beauty products. I am fond of their peanut butter which is literally grounded peanuts with no additives, preservatives and flavourings. Of course shopping here is not as cheap as the local supermarket but you feel so good about yourself for being so healthy after shopping here. I obviously would not do my entire groceries here as that would burn a hole in my pocket though. 'Mrs Flannery's' is a must for anyone into natural health and organic foods who lives around the 'Taringa' area. You will not be disappointed by the range this place has to offer.

The name says it all. It sells, superior fruit and inside is Wendy's kitchen…read more Be warned, this greengrocer store does sell superior fruit, but it also comes with a superior price tag! A dollar or two extra here and there, but hey, these days it all adds up. Where you can buy a massive mango for $2.99 (not on special) at regular fruit shops, they sell the same looking massive mangoes at $3.99 and it's on special. Do you get what I mean? But shopping here does have its perks. First of all, it is a store stocked full of high quality deli produce. Fresh fruits and vegetables as well as many items imported from Europe, mainly Italy. They have my favourite crisped baked pita bread crackers with parma cheese infused into it. It's delish with fresh dips! Or if you feel like shortbread, there are some hand-made short bread made in Wendy's kitchen available for a handsome sum of $7.99 a bag. It is a small bag with about 5 shortbreads, pretty exy me thinks! But the taste is amazing. These gorgeous shortbreads literally melt in your mouth. Other great food they have include; a variety of expensive cheeses, deli meats, sealed fresh quiches, pizza's and tuna mornay, a selection of imported biscuits, freshly made yogurts, premium olive oils and plenty more. If you are after a real foodies shopping experience, this place ticks all the boxes. It may not be the place I go to stock up for my weekly groceries, but it is a fabulous little shop to go and splurge and invest into a premium quality food, once in a while.

All the fruit and vegetables are immaculately presented you almost don't want to take something away to ruin its presentation. The family who run this fresh produce shop are very friendly and always willing to lend a helpful hand in fruit and veg picking.

Popcorn, fresh fish, meat, flowers, all kinds of produce, wool, ton of food trucks, live music. My friend got the Japanese pancakes and I had a bite. Very fluffy and a touch of sweetness.

The produce is cheaper than the supermarkets.

Mind you we all love food so this was the perfect spot. There were so many tents lined up and so many different vendors to choose from. It was like super farmer's market compared to what I'm used to at home in Hawai'i. We walked around for bit just eyeing out all the different food. There is definitely something for everyone here. Also, a great place to buy produce and meat. Probably for a cheaper price than you would find in a grocery store. Because we couldn't decide on one food stand we decided to get food from multiple ones lol. We got out drinks from a tea stand. We got liliko'i and mango teas. There was one stand where they were selling breaky sammies for $5 and they were huge! We got one of those and a gian samosa from an Indian vendor. The samosa was almost the size of my hand. Ain't gonna find any samosas like that in Hawai'i unless you make em yourself. We also got pork belly shish kabobs. It was a great experience and so much fun too! If you're ever in Brisbane I recommend going to Rocklea markets. Everyone just seemed so happy and excited even though it was a bit rainy that day. It was also a good place for families. My boyfriend and I will be back next time we're in Brisbane again.

I tried their 56% iced chocolate drink at 156 Adelaide St., which was fantastic. Would definitely stop by for a chocolate drink any time I am back in Brisbane. Highly, highly recommend. I bought chocolates at 156 first. Everything I saw was $6 for 100 grams, but I didn't know what 100 grams of chocolate looks like (darn Imperial system) so I ended up getting a pre-packaged and wrapped pack of 4 random goods for $30. Mixed bag whether it's worth it or not. Buying the 4 packs separately would have been cheaper, but the milk chocolate-covered strawberries in the gift set weren't in stock individually at the 144 store.

Then I realised that I was loitering right beside a huge bottle of chocolate Port. Yes, you read that right. It's Port and it's chocolate flavoured. You can even soak strawbs in it. Then there were the other amazing liquers, just ripe for adding into cocktails: watermelon, rose, mango, macadamia nut). I underestimated you, Liqurious. Respect.
