a HUGE coles with everything you could need!…read more They gave out chocolate cakes one time, and that is enough to get a five star because that single slice blows all the other groceries out of the water. Time to time, there will be an employee handing out samplers (but like full size samplers) of new Cole's branded treats. I've never had to wait more than 20 seconds to check out at this cole's, and had absolutely no issues ever.

I did not expect Coles being a supermarket in the middle of CBD would be that sizable! This…read morelocation though not really close to my hotel but worth coming by to check it out in the area. Huge selection of everything. This place though is super crowded! A lot of out of towners like myself are shopping here. Self serve lines with multiple checkout machine probably the best option instead of waiting in line if you only have a few items that you want to cash out.

A heavily edited Woolworths for most of your grab-and-go needs. After spending a nice week eating…read moreoranges and mandarins off trees, my little Thor was super stoked to find them just as easily here. Hot food, cold food, shelf food, and a few odds and ends for your commuter/traveling needs. I was saddened by the short selection of magazines, but it's understandable given the limited space.

Woolies and a convenience store, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First came love, then came…read moremarriage, then came...this shop on the corner! This small new Woolies has taken over the old CommBank site, filling it with aisles of snacks, convenience foods and ready-to-eat goods. I don't think I've seen anything like it - not as big or well stocked as a supermarket, not as exxy and poorly stocked as a convenience store, it's perfect for busy workers rushing to or from work and in need of a grab-and-go meal. There's even a cafe onsite selling the cheapest coffee and cakes in Surry - $3 brownies, say whaaaaat? I'm yet to try the coffee here yet but boy has it been handy when I've been running to/from Central and needed to pick up a bag of washed spinach, a tub of yoghurt, a pack of bikkies or a bit of fresh fruit. It opens til late, heck it may even be open 24/7* - say whaaaaat? *don't quote me on that #wishfulthinking, but I'll check next time I swing by

Maloney's Grocer deserves a mention for the simple fact that it stocks the most delicious chocolate…read morein the world. Conscious Chocolate's Raw Cacao with 60% cacao, naturally sweetened with agave nectar, is raw, organic, handmade and vegan, with low GI, no soy, no added sugar and gluten free. So basically, it's chocolate that is not only delicious, but that is good for you - or so I'm able to convince myself. Maloney's is fantastic for a bunch of other reasons as well - namely their amazing salads, gluten free products, fantastic range of fruit and veg, and tasty fresh gluten free vegetarian lasagne. So you should go there - and buy some Conscious Chocolate.

Top five things to browse and buy at Maloneys…read more 1. Anything from the deli. The salads, the sandwiches, the pastas all are delicious. 2. The Tubs of goodness. Chocolates, sweets, pretzels, nuts, rice crackers, you name it Maloneys have it in a tub. 3. Great quality fruit and vege and lots of it! Maloney's also have great packaged up veggies for snacking. 4. The selection of great sauces, jams, dips etc. 5. The coffee is really very good. You'll pay through the nose for everything at Maloney's but you are paying for quality.

What sets this supermarket apart from all the others? Great and friendly service!…read more They are really patient in helping you get exactly what your after and know their stuff! Don't speak English? Never fear. The owners speak so many Chinese dialects! I've heard them go from one to the other like they are having one conversation in 5 languages. Amazing!

There's several Chinese supermarkets and grocery stores in Sydney's compact Chinatown but…read moreEverspring is one of the most popular, as it is probably the closest to the busy Dixon Street mall. It is reasonably large, larger than most of the Chinese grocery stores in Chinatown, but Thai Kee and BQC are larger. The prices at Everspring are more or less the same as any other Chinese grocery store in Chinatown, but Everspring has a much larger range than most, and is in probably the most convenient location of them all.

Passed this place a few times and it's always super crowded and the food looked really good. So…read morefinally got the chance to try their food. Had the lemongrass basil rice with cuttlefish and shrimp. Also tried the spicy chicken and green beans over rice and lastly the cuttle fish salad. Everything was super spicy but still so flavorful and delicious. If I could bring the chef home with me back to the states so he could cook me his food fresh everyday I'd be in heaven. So good!!

Upmarket um ...market? These guys (from the Chat Thai group)…read morehave worked out that places like Pontip and every other Asian grocer have paid zero attention to presentation and style. Presumably because its only us gwei lo's who think that how a place looks and whether you can actually fit two people in an aisle is at all important. But these guys have also worked out that a purpose built coolroom for greens and fresh produce, and putting damp newspaper over leaves will give the customer some comfort that the produce is cared for at all. Compare the way the produce is stored and handled at other places and Jarern Chai looks a cut above - even if the stuff is exactly the same and just as cheap. Pontip still wins on overall variety and hard to get stuff but this place smacks it into the bleachers for presentation and stuff thats important to dumb white people even if it shouldn't be.

Pleasantly surprised finding an Aldi in Sydney Australia, we had to check it out, comparing it to…read morethe discount grocery chain that we are used to in the States. There are 599 Aldis in Australia, with 203 in New South Wales, alone. It's large (even though it's considered a 'Corner' store, which means it is smaller and meant to service a densely populated metro area). It has a lot larger meat department than what you would see in the States (though similarly, all the meat is prepackages i.e. there is no butcher on-site). Prices weren't too dissimilar to that in the States, and there was a large center area where 'special buys' were displayed. Definitely some stuff that we would have been interested in if we weren't so far from home.

This Aldi seemed to be much bigger than the Aldis they have in the US. Plenty of great deals and…read moremuch cheaper than the grocery stores surrounding it. Be warned, Aldi is known for carrying non-name brand items. It will be hard to find specialty items or a particular brand.

Wow.... Another supermarket in china town. It was really…read moregood set up. Starting from the entrance just right opposite UTS library on ultimo street, very clean. You walking pass 2 sliding doors and mini escalator will bring you down stairs ( and vise versa ). Small cafe on the right hand side after you on lower level, and coffee is supply by Vittoria, you know this brand supply a good quality coffee. They had deal for coffee and cakes. Sign on every isle will guide you find items that you need.

Well, on top of that they also offer free wi fi.. I know it sound a bit unusual but I think they want people to shop over here and who ever giving company feel very comfortable to be able to browse the net and write review on yelp. PS: did I mention they have $2 coffee promotion? And coffee that they serve is good!
