Market City

I went to a small gaming shop named game infinity and that was not cheap at the end and a tad devious, it was owned by few people. all in all market city has flopped for me?

This place reminds me of New York Chinatown all enclosed in one building. Cluttered with stalls that sell everything from austrailian souvenier, tshirts, phone cases, luggage, fake purses and all. I would highly recommend coming to this place if you need to but souveniers to bring back home. Items are much cheaper then anywhere else in Sydney. In the back there is a farmers market where you can get a plethora of asian fruits and veggies.

How I never made a review for Market City is beyond me. I’ve been living in Sydney for 11-​months and 7 of those months were spent working at a clothing retailer in this center. With that preface being said, I think I’m capable of making a thoughtful review… Hopefully
From a grocery store to nail salon, pharmacy to wig shop, tavern to video arcades, Market City has it all under one roof.
There are a ton of shops you’d find here that you’d also find at Westfield or Macquarie BUT most are at outlet pricing here. Don’t be afraid to ask for an additional deal/​discount especially when you’re purchasing multiple items — the manager can always make something happen.
I frequented the food court quite a bit on my lunch breaks. It mostly has Asian food (Viet, Japanese, Thai, Korean, Chinese, etc.) but if you’re desperate for a burger and chips, Oporto is just steps from MC. Food court is on Level 3 and a few other eateries can be found on Level 1.
Paddy’s Market is just below Market City so you can do all your souvenir and produce shopping after you buy yourself a nice outfit for the weekend.
The men’s restrooms can get a bit funky when MC gets busy but that’s my only complaint. So plug your nose, do your business and get the heck out!

Great place to come for hard-​to-​find Asian ingredients or a decent Yum Cha. Located right above Paddys Markets it’s also home to 30 factory outlet stores — although they’re hit and miss.
The IGA supermarket on Level 1 stocks a good mix of Asian and western ingredients, including sauces and vegetables as well as kitchenware.
I often end up at The Eight Modern — a great Yum Cha restaurant at the top of Market City, run by the Zilver Group.

This is for Happy Chef on the 3^rd floor food court. Excellent Laksa, the best of all Happy Chef locations and I’ve tried them all. It’s the first place I go to on every trip, twice a month. I dream about it. They also make the best Chili paste ever. I load up on it every trip. Keep trying to get the recipe from them but it’s one of their best kept secrets. Tried their regular broth as well, but way prefer the LAKSA. Exquisite. Every person I’ve taken there has absolutely loved it even if they’ve never had it before and they keep coming back for more.

Here we have a shopping centre that features tonnes of factory outlets, food stores, an large Asian supermarket, restaurants, a tavern, an Asian food court, a massive video arcade and more.
The supermarket is amazing, one of the largest Asian supermarkets in Sydney, pretty much all the Asian food you could imagine under one roof. Cheap prices too, and very clean and modern. Many people visit Market City for the sole purpose of visiting this supermarket, and I can’t blame them. Well worth a visit. There is also an Asian butchery, seafood store and bakery in close proximity.
There are also a number of clothing outlets on the first and second floors, many of which are factory outlets with heavily discounted prices, much less than at places such as City Beach or The Athletes Foot. A number of brands are here including Converse, FILA, Bonds, Lonsdale and Esprit, in addition to the regular shopping centre clothing stores such as Glue, YD, Cotton On, Tarocash, Supre, Jay Jays and Giordano. There are also a number of independent clothing stores.
On the top floor there are a number of restaurants, including popular Cantonese yum cha restaurant The Eight, as well as an Asian food court offering a number of choices, including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and Indian. In my personal opinion this food court isn’t as good as others in Chinatown, many of the stalls seem to focus the usual ‘honey chicken fried rice’ type dishes that you can get anywhere, unlike other food courts in the area which have more interesting choices. The Japanese ramen place gets a good write up though, as does the Vietnamese place and a couple of the Chinese places, so there’s some gold to be found here.
There are a number of other food outlets scattered througout the centre, can’t really comment on them. There is also another, much smaller food court on the first floor, it seems to have a Turkish/​Lebanese focus rather than an Asian focus.
The top floor contains City Amusements, one of Sydney’s largest video game arcades, which also includes dogem cars and a laser tag arena in addition to the usual array of video games. The arcade seems to be very popular with students from nearby UTS, as well as kids and teens.
There are also a number of Asian-​themed shops, such as an Asian music and DVD store and a Morning Glory outlet.
Well worth a visit.

If you need to update your wardrobe and are looking to spot a bargain then it’s well worth trying Market City down at Chinatown. It’s a place where you’ll find plenty of factory outlet stores that are always having a sale and trying to get rid of stuff. Honestly there are some pretty good shops worth looking at. If you’re an absolute bargain hunter you can try Paddy’s Markets down stairs. God knows what you’ll find down there!
If at some point during your shopping spree you need a break there is a food court upstairs which has some pretty popular Asian places to sample or if you need something stronger than food, then you may want to try the Market City Tavern located on the first floor. I’ll be honest while I was half tempted, I didn’t try it out.
There’s other food options scattered throughout but whatever you’re looking for, maybe try Market City. You’ll find something and more than likely at a good price.

Conveniently located a short stroll from my office, Market City often plays host to my lunch time, mainly because it has quite a good food court, although I have frequented this less since my discovery of Eating World and Dixon House food courts.
It seems to have all the reasonably priced fashion stores, i.e. Giordano, YD and a Esprit outlet store, so it’s not a bad place to come if you’re looking for some cheap-​ish clothes. As a shopping mall, it pales in comparison to the Westfield up the road, but it’s not too bad. It’s just not great either.

This mall is located above Sydney’s Paddy’s Market in chinatown. It houses a cinema and food court upstairs, designer outlets, phone accessories shops, souvenir shop, health food store, accessories shops and some food stalls. There’s also a rather big Asian grocery shops inside this mall.

Habe hier an einem kleinen Stand drollige Chinesische Glücksbringer gefunden und wunderte mich erst über die Formen.
Hierzulande kennt man ja Klee, Schweine, Schornsteinfeger usw.
Es gab hier Ananas, Chilies und noch mehr, und die Verkäuferin hat mir sehr nett erklärt WARUM da nun Tropenfrüchte und scharfe Gewürze abgebildet waren. Klasse.

Na hoffentlich habe ich das jetzt richtig wiedergegeben
