Hold on to your hats people we have a new shop in Lane Cove that is not a chemist, hairdresser, gelateria or display suite, it is a Japanese Grocery store.
Mori Mart is located under Coles next to Lime Leaf Fruit Market. Mori Mart is a bona fide Japanese grocery store. Mori Mart is owned by MJ and Tai. In Japanese, Mori means Forest. MJ and Tai chose the name as they wanted a name that reflected organic and healthy. The shop is crammed full of Japanese goodies you would find in a Japanese Grocery store in Japan.
Join us as we take a tour of Mori Mart.
Here are some of their best sellers and a few recipe suggestions.
