The Freshest Produce

VIP Market is the hub for everybody living anywhere close-by, for no other reason than the fact that you can find everything you want here. Whether it’s your grandma, dad, sister or your shopping list, this place is your one-stop destination.

One of the busiest sections of the market is the one where you can find the best fresh produce. There are alleys full of fish and meat vendors just as soon as you enter this section, and an area crammed with vegetables and fruits suppliers a little further in. We spotted every kind of veggies from potatoes and tomatoes to broccoli and button mushrooms. The fruit vendors here are always stocked with fresh stocks of seasonal fruits.

The small shops here also sell groceries fo your larder – from blocks of regular butter to hard-to-find cream cheese, and all sorts of jams, pickles, flavourings, and even baking supplies.

Buy New Clothes Or Restore Old Ones

VIP Market has stores specifically for sarees, kurtis, t-shirts, pyjamas, and other clothing items. You can even buy bedsheets, robes, sportswear, leggings, and other stuff here. And what’s more – you can often bargain and buy these for prices suitable for you. We also found tailor shops and other shops where you can get clothes stitched according to your own designs and needs. If you’re looking for fashion-related supplies like fabrics, threads, laces and other things, hunt for these on the second floor of the market.

Flowers And Clay Pots

This place has an amazing clay market just outside the main market, and have all kinds of clay bottles, pots, diyas, and lamps. And they’re really cheap, too! The flower market here is also always loaded with fresh flowers and beautiful bouquets and garlands.

Stationery

Hobby Centre is the best place to find inexpensive, good quality craft and art supplies, stationery items, school-related charts and sheets. Whether you have to make a creative costume for a fancy dress competition or want to throw a home party for your birthday, you can find every supply you need here. They have two shops on each side, one for craft necessities and one for stationery articles.

Cyber Cafes And Gift Shops

The other side of the market has a number of cyber cafes for you to work at. One of these places even offers computer tuitions. If you head to the basement, you can find a gift shop that’s like a cheaper version of a Presto. Gift your fam framed pictures, personalised t-shirts, mugs, cushions, and other items that you can get made here.

Call me snobbish, but I only prefer classics: like vanilla ice cream, and yellow Lays. My best friends think my autobiography should be named “But That’s Too Cliché” – apparently, I’m allergic to all things obvious. (I hope you see the irony).
