There were tons of people, both locals and tourists, walking around enjoying the food, drinks and items each vendor had to offer here. The place was alive with live music playing, as well as a school group performing dances in one area and a band playing in another area. The vendors were super friendly and we got to try samples of a few different things before we decided to buy a couple things to nibble on while waiting for our hotel to let us check in. There were a ton of different vendors and at this place, I had one of the best bao buns I have ever had, filled with curry chicken! Prices amongst the vendors seemed very reasonable and I ended up buying a couple cute little magnets one vendor had to offer!

You'll get both exotic imported and local seasonal fruit and veg here. Plus it's cheaper than large supermarkets and the staff are friendly and helpful. Michel's also stock items such as some fruit juices, fresh herbs, dried fruits, cheeses, coleslaws, jams, cereal bars, teas, pastas and bakery items. I'd give it a full 5 stars if only it stocked a few dairy free alternatives such as soya milks and cheeses - a fabulous little shop though.

Rumour has it that the 'Michel' who owns this fruit and veg shop isn't actually a Frenchman as the…read morespelling of his name would suggest, but a fella from here called Michael, who was the victim of a faulty sign painter at a previous address and who decided to keep the spelling for his shop when it changed premises. At least, that's what I'm told, although I've never brought it up with the man himself. Michel's is the perfect shop to have on your corner - a good range of quality fruit and veg, as well as essentials that you might need for cooking a meal, from gravy granules and fresh herbs to groundnut oil and fish sauce. The only bone I would have to pick is that sometimes it's hard to find the local produce among the lettuces from Egypt and carrots that have been flown in from somewhere else. However, overall a little fresh fruit and veg gem.

This was a little bit of a bargain for a thrifty student version of myself who wanted to spend as little money as possible on food and keep as much as possible for the bar! All the local produce is relatively cheap because its delivered straight to the shop, cutting any middle man in the form of whole sellers. The quality of the vegetables is second to none. All grown organically and only in season, which also meant I could vary my stir frys without much effort! The lady owner is a unique character who is always willing to let a hand, is as enthusiastic about the quality of her stores products as are local chefs including celebrity Paul Rankin, who can often be see buying his dailies.

This wee shop on Castle Street would fit right in at a farmers Market but here it is plonked right in the City Centre. The variety of fruit and veg in this wee shop is incredible - if you're a City office worker and you're looking to nip out at lunch and get some ingredients for dinner then come here. The spuds still have soil on them and the carrots have their roots firmly attached. Forget organic this is just fresh produce transported from farm to stall in the blink of an eye. Not only is it fresh but it's cheap too. It's not often in this day and age that you can get anything for under a £1 but here you could pick up 3lb's of carbalicious potatoes for that price. I urge you to forget the supermarket giants and give Fruiterama a go!

Everything you need for good honest cooking can be found here, as well as a good selection of the more exotic ingredients that may be required.

This probably has the most comprehensive range of the vegetable stalls on a Saturday. A wide range of fresh carrots, onions, shallots, root vegetables, potatoes as well as a variety of fresh fruit. The atmosphere is always friendly and of that traditional market trader environment. This is a place to haggle and banter with the grocers working there. I usually pick up the basics here, I always have carrots, celery, onions and garlic in the fridge as from that you can do just about anything Italian (every sauce base in Italy contains the three basics, finely diced carrot, celery and onion) Friendly quick service, great range and cheap (haggle worthy) prices.

The guy who served me was singing at the top of his voice so I started chatting to him about what else I could put in a curry. He suggested peppers, garlic and sweetcorn. I listened to his suggestions but didn't bother but I will tell you if I needed any more vegetables or fruit or herbs I wouldn't have needed to go anywhere else. Lots of fresh produce, very centrally located on the Ormeau Road and a massive airy space. I actually thought as I was leaving that they could expand into a deli or open a dessert section as the place is so big - maybe the could open a curry counter? Yer man was still singing when I left. Very friendly place.

As long as the local stores aren't stupidly expensive then I think its an obligation to try and support local businesses as much as possible. With this in mind I try and call in here after work to pick up my fruit and veg and have always found the staff friendly and helpful, always serving me in a polite way with a smile on their face. The prices are pretty standard and certainly not prohibitive if you want to shop locally. I like its old school vibe and would certainly recommend anyone who is up on the Ormeau Road to pop in and try to support a locally owned, sourced, provided and staffed shop.

Everything about this store is authentic and old school in the best possible way. Even the sign is something you'd expect to see in black and white photographs. The shop is on a corner plot which means they have loads of items outside, yard brushes, flowers and fresh fruit and veg. You can have a good nosey at their produce without actually going in doors. They have loads of organic, looking fruit, as well as some 21st century items like sweets and snacks. When I went in yesterday it was being run by a single lady but she had everything under control, a proper shopkeeper for a proper shop. This wee part of The Antrim Road is like a throwback to a bygone era. Next to the greengrocers there's a butchers and a baker. All we are missing is a candle stick maker - but who knows that could be next.

I do have an issue with the word organic being slapped on everything to ensure it's accepted by the middle class consumer and sold at an inflated price. Luckily in this case, Mullan's farm seem solely interested in producing top of the range meat. This little butcher/farm shop towards the front of the market sells everything from corn-fed chickens (producing that lovely yellow skin which crisps up very well when fried) to venison and beef. I left with half a dozen eggs the last time, slightly more pricey than Mc Carthy's egg stall across the way but they were still great. I ended up using them in a spinach and goats cheese soufflé, very tasty and I recommend it.
