The Fresh Market

AMAZING supermarket/deli!! This place has the best meat and seafood selection we've seen for a while. We've tried out the lamb cutlets ($17 for 3!) and the salmon Toyko style. Lots of fresh bread, cheeses and vegies. That being said the fruit and dessert sections are a little disappointing. The fruit is just not very good quality and everything in the dessert section of the bakery is covered in fake cream. Overlooking these two issues, everything else is pretty amazing. Whilst expensive, the meat on offer is of excellent quality and great variety. I am pretty excited by the seafood section and despite Andrew's disgust Lucy and I are going to eat seafood twice a week for our Omega 3 intake. Shrimp seems to be very popular. Still trying to track down some good Balsamic vinegar.
