How we read reviews →Queen Victoria Market's cult mussel stall - chilli coconut cream mussels with sourdough is the market's most-queued-for $18.
No-frills market food stall with self-service seating in Queen Victoria Market's A Shed - casual, fast-paced and often shoulder-to-shoulder busy on weekends.
Mussels cooked to order in a choice of sauces (chilli coconut cream is the reviewer favourite, plus white wine cream, garlic butter, tomato and cheese), served with sourdough for mopping the broth, with self-service seating shared with the market.
Not tied to a single cuisine tradition - reviewers describe the chilli coconut cream broth as having a laksa-like, Southeast-Asian-leaning flavour alongside more classic French-style white wine and garlic preparations.
Firmly budget-friendly - pots run roughly $14-19 with bread - and reviewers consistently call it some of the best-value fresh seafood in Melbourne, even with the queue factored in.
