Peter Lobo

Excellent multi cultural products and produce. I come to this place to buy fish, fruits and vegetables. Ample parking although you need to pay 2 dollars. The underground parking is a bit tight, dark and gloomy. Perhaps the council can take a look and plan for improvements. The other parking space which is ground level is more preferable. Overall, an good place to shop for food supplies.

A great Market for Fresh Foods and most things you would need in the general merchandise area. Purchased a travelling Case extremely cheap compared to local shops. Plenty of shops to choose from and a great variety. Outside this area there is a Food market with a great range of foods for a quick meal. Plenty of cheap parking as it costs a dollar an hour. You can easily go across the Road to the Dandenong square shopping centre if you require other things.also at the Market at Stall number D 9-10 there is a lady that sells Bags and Suitcases. We purchased from this Lady as she gave us excellent service and was extremely helpful. Check her stall if you require a handbag or Suitcase for travelling.
