| - I don't know why it took me so long to write this review. And I don't know why I deliberated over the star allocation for so long too. I was stuck between 4 and 5; but eventually reasoned that I have very little to complain about when it comes to this place.
What kind of bulk food would you like? Because I'm pretty sure they have it. It can appear a bit higgledy piggledy but I think that's mainly because there is just so much of everything in a reasonably small underground space. Nuts, chocolates, dried fruit, flours, spices, sugars, biscotti, sweets and on and on and on. There's a massive selection of oils, nut butters, honeys and sauces. I'm always convinced I'm going to embark on an exotic cooking spree when I shop here. But then I end up just buying nuts and chocolate. In fact, I've had to limit my visits because the temptations around every corner are just too much to handle.
If there are downsides, it's that the place is a little cramped and can become packed so that it's difficult to pass people on the aisles. For all the hordes of shoppers though, the lines to pay are never that long. Prices are moderate-not really a bargain but they'll often match Bulk Barn. The staff are pleasant despite the place being hectic at times and they are like bizarre bulk food geniuses (genii?). They know the price of EVERYTHING. I'd like to figure out how many individual bulk food items are in that place, but I tend to lose focus when I get over 20 (high reps in the gym are troublesome) so I'll just say that there are lots of things so they are truly amazing for keeping track.
So go! And please buy all the mini peanut butter cups. And the Lindt wafers in milk, dark and white chocolate. They're temptation I don't need...
