It was brought to my attention that I have failed to do a post about Queen Victoria Market! I can explain why… I live close enough to our beloved market that I am lucky enough to do lots of my shopping there. I guess it has become such a normal part of my life that I forgot it’s also a tourist destination! So today I brought my camera and tried to look at the market through the eyes of a first-timer.
When most people hear “market” they think fresh produce/farmer’s market, and they would be right. Queen Victoria’s Fruit and Veg Precinct is amazing. The produce is fresh and delicious.
One of my favorite parts of the Market is the Deli Hall. Here you will find heaps of fresh bread/bakery stalls, local and imported cheeses, dips, olives, chocolate/sweets shops, and poultry shops (where you will also find game meats like crocodile, rabbit, kangaroo).
There is another hall which selling those souvenirs, clothing, phone accessories, baking items & etc..Something like our pasar malam here..I did not buy anything, after draftly calculated price x 3, hehehe..
