Talk around town is that fruit & vegetable prices will reach the moon thanks to those recent nasty floods around Australia. Truth is, they’ve been sky rocketing for a while now at those big supermercardo chains, and no amount of sternly penned emails with change it…. trust my husband, he tried. If you’re lucky enough to live inner Sydney side – you can indeed take matters into your own hands, people – feel empowered and rule the world at Paddy’s markets!

What I love most about Paddy’s:

1. Cut your grocery bill in half. Glorious freshness – ‘cheaper cheaper’ (as spruiked by stall man)

2. Fruit & veggies, spices & nuts in all the colours of the rainbow

3. Weird and wonderful mushrooms

4. So many leafy greens, in shades of green you’ve never seen before

3. “Brothers. Sisters. Mums & daddies: You haven’t been to market til you’ve been to Paddy’s” Jingle genius.
