Spoilt for choice at the EQ Village Markets

The weekly markets at Moore Park's Entertainment Quarter (still commonly known as Fox Studios) are simply delightful.

EQ Village Markets, Entertainment Quarter, Moore Park
Every Wednesday and Saturday, under cover, gourmet food and regional produce stalls bring forth their goods to sell alongside some homewares and ready-to-eat food stalls.

Gorgeous carrots (purple ones too) and radishes by the bunch

Tiger lillies

Luxurious French goods

Pretty fruit stands

Kipflers

Easter honeybread cookies

Muscatels - not a bad price

Artisan French-style salamis

More salami

Potted herbs

Baskets of gorgeous vegetables

Not all food... small girls' ruffle skirts

A lychee and mint drink

Spinach and cheese gozleme
After a good while avoiding gozleme, you won't believe how good they taste, especially a spinach and cheese one for brunch while sitting in the warm autumn sunshine.

Oh yes, a day out at the EQ Village Markets is delightful and indeed, somewhere to spoil oneself silly on food.

    I've always been curious about these markets and wondered if they were any good. I like the look of the mint & lychee drink; and who can go past a gozleme (not me)!

    Is the Ethiopian food stall still there? Eating there was an absolute revelation. Incredible food.

    Hi lateraleating - Yes, it's a chewy, rustic style one :) Yummy

    Hi MissPiggy - The gozleme was SO good! I hadn't had one in ages...

    Hi Ellie - Just how I ended my day ;)

    Hi Jobe - Afraid not. That would have been interesting. I've only had African food once, at Camden markets in London...

    I thought it's a great place to seek out a wonderful range of fruit and vegetables, free range poultry, game and meats, farm-fresh eggs, cheeses and dairy. Plus the idea that most delectables can now found all in one place is such a great relief.

    The tiger lilies are a bargain, what's more they're gorgeous and last for ages.
