Itinerary
Five days a week, vendors set up shop in the laneways. Organic produce bursts from crates labeled by region, and stands overflow with honey, spices, and other local goods. Pates, cheeses, and dips fill Deli Hall, also known as the Dairy Produce Hall. Around every corner, there's a sight to see, and your guide will point out details easy to miss in the bustling market throughout the 2-hour tour.
While most of the market is filled with tables and stands, you can also find specialty shops. Gourmet breads are sold over at the bustling M&G Caiafa, nuts, dried fruits and grains abound. For a sweet treat, head to the American Doughnut Kitchen, where you can indulge in famous hot jam doughnut. For handmade pasta of all shapes and sizes, step into the Traditional Pasta Shop.
At the end of your guided tour, enjoy a fruit platter!
Sample tasting menu, subject to change:
• Coffin Bay oysters
• Hot jam doughnuts
• Grilled peppered kangaroo
• Pickled octopus
• Local goats’ milk cheese
• Fresh dolmades
• Victorian olives
Please note: Tastings are seasonal and dependent on what’s new and currently popular at the market.
