“Not quite sure where to start with so many great options available this week. Firstly mangoes, we are fully into Derek Foleys’ fabulous Silky variety. These are so far the best eating mangoes for the next two or three weeks. I want our mango loving customers to get in whilst they last.

Next, we have the best white grape from the best grower now underway. I am referring to the white Ivory variety grown by the Cordoma family. I started buying from their grandfather, Joe, in the old Haymarket fifty years ago. Growing the best eating grapes in Australia runs in this family’s DNA. They are around double the price of your standard supermarket varieties, mainly because they are twice as good to eat. Our imported Navels are very well priced as are our nectarines.

February to early March is the best month for melons and the Dawson’s have as always sent us fantastic eating, well priced rock melons and Honeydews this week. Again, we have very local Galas instore this week from Darkes Forest, just south side of Sydney, eating better than any of the Victorian fruit that has been severely stressed with the incredible heat down there.

Nectarines are still inexpensive and full of flavour and to round out our fruit offer, we have some great eating West Australian avocados. These too are heat stressed, the avocado is still perfect inside, just doesn’t look all that smart. We will have a fantastic special on these for the weekend.”
