The Queen Vic
Today I pootled into the city to visit a Melbourne icon, the Queen Victoria Market. This market has everything from shoes, fashion, souvenirs, fresh f & v, seafood, butchers, and of course my favourite the deli's.
The deli's are housed in one of the oldest buildings, where the market has been going since 1878. Each shop is jam packed full of delightful produce.
There are cheeses, polish sausages, all sorts of deli meats, olives of every description, dips, antipasto, fresh breads. I want to try it all and most vendors are more than happy to let you sample before you buy. I ended up buying a french brie that was infused with truffle that was $104.00 a kilo.
Holy Swiss cheese Batman!!
My wee piece will be enough for us to enjoy for Fun Food Friday, and it only set me back $9.00. A bargain for a piece of heaven.
