Although I almost habitually manage to get to Norton Street Grocer as it's closing, the days when I…read moremanage to get there on time mean that for a week (or at least a couple of days) I'll be eating like a king. Nortons has a great selection of olives (my picks: the manchego stuffed, anchovy stuffed, Sicilian and chilli stuffed) and cheeses, plus I'm sure they've got a good range of deli meats as well - I should say that as a non-meateater I didn't really pay this much attention. Aside from the antipasto ingredients, Nortons has fantastic selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, which is fantastic when the Coles upstairs disappoints. Not only is everything stacked and presented immaculately, but the grocers are more than willing to help you choose the right produce, selecting the one that's just ripe enough for whenever you may need it. They have a great selection of fresh and dry pastas, passatas and various other Italian ingredients, and come Christmas and Easter times their shelves are loaded with dozens of panettone varieties - my boyfriend's Italian mum (not a Sydney-sider) has us source on from Nortons every holidays. Given all it's good points, and the fact that Norton Street Grocer is open 'til 7pm almost every night, I have no excuse for missing it. Perhaps its just to ensure I don't eat that well all the time.

The fresh produce here is so fresh! They also stock some of the more exotic fruits like Tamarillo…read moreand achacha. They also had mirabelle plums which you don't see often. Slightly more expensive but the fruit lasts longer due to freshness.

Each is operated by a shopkeeper, and there are over 1,400 locations all over Australia. We had a chance to stop in at this location in Darlinghurst. It has an unusual set-up with a ground floor at street level, consisting of more durable food products and such. But then there is an escalator to the basement, where fresh produce and a deli exists. There were signs pointing to a food hall, which I later learned meant 'deli'.

His sandwich looked delicious and he was happy with it *holy cow* these eggs were incredible. I happen to love scrambled eggs, and cheese, so it's no surprise that they blew my mind but the concept was so perfectly executed. They were cooked perfectly, and truly had that unique cacio e pepe taste.

So I went to a fish and chip stall and ordered the Grilled Barramundi with the chips and greens accompanied with tomato sauce and Peri Peri sauce. It was the first ime trying Barramundi. The fish was cooked right and the grill marks were spot on, however Barramundi like the Tilapia was quite bland. So I added the Peri Peri sauce it became a little sweeter. TheChips or Fries were crisp and delicious better than your fast food fries, and the tomato sauces was sweet without all the additives.

And if you like cheeses, olives and other delicatessan finds - they're here too. If you love food and love quality you MUST get your groceries from this wonderful fruit and veggie store.

A tantalising treasure trove imported Italian goodies makes wondering the aisles imperative. If you're into food, this place is a bit like hitting the gourmet jackpot. Either enter with a clear plan of attack or make sure you've got plenty of time on your parking meter. But the endless supply of taste tests scattered throughout the place can shatter ever the most orchestrated plan of attack. Which is no doubt the intention. Before you know it, you feel like a mouse trapped in a giant maze of tasty morsels from which there is no escape other than to eat your way out. Whilst doing so, make sure you try the 'ready to go' chicken and eggplant parmigiana from the deli. But be prepared for a major parmy addiction.

It does not feel right being the first writer to review this Coles Supermarket. Now having…read morediscovered this Coles, I feel rather lucky to come to Yoga inside the shopping centre where this supermarket is situated once a week; and on this I always make a visit to Coles at Westfield Bondi Junction without fail. Pity they don't award Qantas Frequent Flyer Points for purchases over $30 like their major competitor does. The airy ambience and bright lighting is so welcoming. Love the fresh fruit display as you walk in. Fresh quality fruit, and ever so welcoming. Love a kilo of Red Delicious Apples ($5.50) in particular, they're juicy as. I stock up on these for the next few days ahead. The pizza bar right near the sit down (or take away) sushi bar and cafe is just amazing. I have tried the meat lovers and tropicana pizzas ($5 a slice in the past), and today I enjoyed a full serve of some Peri Peri Chicken Pizza ($5) while killing some time prior to an important dentists appointment. Generous pieces of chicken with the right amount of tangy sauce, with a few pieces of sun dried tomato succumbed to the senses and hit the spot at around 11am. These ingredients are clearly fresh, and they combine well with the cheese - mmmm swiss cheese. Today, there were samples of this and the grilled haloumi and pumpkin pizza for free - such a filling lunch in itself. There were also free samples of some hot chicken curry pie, and in the deli section some beautiful meats and cheeses to try. You do not feel like you've stepped into a supermarket when in these areas, and the service is friendly and consistently good. You can even pay for your groceries at the pizza bar. Coconut water never seems to escape you at this particular Coles either. I stock up (as best as possible) on 1 litre bottles of coconut water from here despite the constant fluctuations on prices (inflation, excuse me) with an abundance of these always on special. I need such for my daily green elixir that appears to be working, although not in areas of my body where I really want (and need it to) as of late. You can move quickly in the self service checkouts too. Come here for: * Piping hot pizza slices for five bucks - tick. * Free food samples (if you're lucky) - tick, tick. * Fresh fruit - tick, tick, tick. * Coconut water at inflated prices - tick, tick, tick, tick.

This place is a specialist green grocer so if your expecting good quality produce and more gourmet…read morechoices this is the spot for you. Different to the likes of Coles and Woolies. It has a large selection of fresh fruit and veg that looks so shiny and ready to be eaten. Great cheese counter as well as Deli that sells a wide range of salads and ready to eat meals. Specialist sauces and overseas products can be found here as its a bit more upmarket. Got a really nice looking cafe at the front as well cause grocery shopping can be hard work. I wouldn't do a full shop from here but definitely nice to treat ourselves every know and then to some specialist cakes , chocolates , smoothies or delicious meals every once in a while. Staff are friendly and the store is incredibly clean looking.

The staff are all friendly and helpful. Knowledgeable as well. Parisi's carries many international foods, too! For me, that means during the holiday season, I can make many of my favourites from America.

I highly recommend Parisi's Food Court! You'll thank me once you've given them a try!!
