Happy Friday y'all! I am in a fabulous mood cuz I have the weekend off and don't have to be a slave to the man at the work tomorrow! YES!! About once every two months, I try to get my bunny butt down to the market at The Palms Centre.
The wonderfully effervescent hosts #MarketFriday, and I truly urge you to join her weekly challenge by posting your photos of your local markets.
The market is just a few minutes down the road from where I work, so I often pop in after closing shop on a Saturday.
I buy my honey there, because in SA, it is hard to find pure honey without additives and other syrup ingredients in the regular stores.
There is a flippen amazing Indian food stall, with the most delicious Chili Bites and samoosas. I usually ask the lady to dish me a few of each and then and I have snacks for dinner that evening.
Another one of my favourite vendors is the Stonehill Olive Farm stall. They have some seriously delicious olives, in many variations. My favourites include the flavoured olives sold by the kilo, with infusions such as rosemary and garlic, chilli and lemon, and smoked green olives. I also love the tapenades. The smoked one is just so good on fresh crunchy ciabatta.
There are also plants. Keep me away from there!.
Fresh fruit and vegetables. I once bought the biggest avocado pear I have ever seen in my life there.
It is set in a beautiful old building, which actually used to be a bakery, home to what is now one of the most well known biscuit brands in South Africa - Bauman's Biscuits.
I love going there to take in the architecture. With the sun streaming through the sky light and the space humming with people, music and conversation, The Palms Market is a charming spot to have a coffee or glass of wine and buy a few weekend supplies.
