Best place to buy Fruits and Veggies?

Hello all,

I was wondering where everyone buys their fruits and veggies from. Who has the best prices, convenience, quality, service? How often do you shop for Fruits & Veggies? What is your typical Fruit & Veggie bill?

We prefer the open-air Fruit & Veggie market near the Fish market. We have a chosen stall we buy from each week who knows our needs well, always chooses the best quality for us, and includes a decent discount to boot. The owner of the fruit stall we use also does our Veggie business for us, getting us the best deals and quality every time.

Your thoughts?

I buy my grocery from the Lebanese-Qatari Vegetable Market just beside the immigration building in Madinet Khalifa area (at the bridge intersection).

They have very good stuff from the middle east (Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, KSA...) and their prices are far better than Carrefour and other similar hypermarkets. Besides, it is close to my house, so it makes it even easier for me...

Depends where you have put up al amriki. I wouldnt prefer the FFC near airport, its a mess, crowded like crazy. But their veggy section is good.Even the lulu there.

If you are close to alnaser, try the FFC there, its cool, clean and fresh. If u wana try lulu try the gharafa one which is not as messy as the airport one.

seriyalle veena hareesh?

is definitely the cheapest and most fresh. Unfortunately, it's about 45 minutes from my home so I never go there. I usually go to Carrefour (which I hate) or Megamart. Their fruit/vegetables are good about 50% of the time only. Which I find is about average in Qatar. This year I am trying to grow some things myself. Wish me luck!
