Adelaide Farmers' Market

Our family has been going to the Adelaide Farmers' Market at the Royal Adelaide Showgrounds ever since it started in 2006. We often go there for breakfast or brunch as well as for the wonderful fresh produce and goodies.

My youngest son's most recent favourite is pizza from Poh's Jamface stall. For those who are not familiar with Poh Ling Yeow, she was the runner up in Channel 10's MasterChef Australia in 2009 and is one of Adelaide's favourite celebrities. Prior to her fame as a cook, she was already a succesful artist, makeup artist and actress. You will find Poh preparing and serving in her stall with her two partners. The pizza is simple and delicious: a briefly deep fried flat bread base with house made salsa, grated parmesan and a scattering of basil leaves. 

I like to buy Fleurieu Milk and Paris Creek butter from the market for guests when arrivals coincide with Sunday and when not, I buy these from a Foodland Supermarket because Foodland supports local primary producers - and importantly also sells those item. For guests staying over Christmas, I leave a small hamper of goodies from the Farmers' Market: e.g. Coriole olives, Woodside Cheese Wrights' cheeses and crackers and jam from Ruby Spoon or Poh's Jamface. I also used to purchase eggs for guests but now our own lovely backyard hens supply these!
