Every last Sat of the month - Zac Meat, Melvados, Fassler - Part 1

I first posted something on this here... 

On every last Saturday of the month, when time permit, we'd like to make a trip down to Zac Warehouse sale... 

For those new to SG, Zac Meat is a halal butcher hence all products sold are Certified Halal by Muis.

It is also on one of those trips that we discovered Melvados as well as Fassler...  So it's a shopping trip to 3 warehouse sale :-) More to that in my next post. 

Zac Meat Super Value Warehouse sale is on every last Saturday of the month... which means the next one will be on 30th Nov 2013.  Mark your calendar...

How to get there: 
Take bus 964 from Woodlands interchange and stop at the Old Chang Kee Building. 

Address :  

Zac Meat & Poultry Pte Ltd

16 Woodlands Terrace

Woodlands East Industrial Estate

Singapore 738441

So yesterday, the still feverish me and hubby went down...  (last min decision as me still sick but I got craving for their macaroni plus I wanted to buy mom the smoked duck from Melvados)

As usual, the queue is long but because there were many staffs on hand, the line is moving fast. If you'd like to avoid the crowd, come around 11am... but by then, the tasting counter will be empty and some of the popular stuffs will be out of stock... 

Because, I already know what I wanted to buy, the first thing we'll do is to pick up the order form and join the line... 

This is the price list and order form for that day. 

I bought their Cooked Lungs and Tripe before.... The quantity is ok for that price. Don't buy the garlic spread if you don't intend to share... it's too much for 2 people to finish. 

The price is definitely much cheaper than the one sold at supermarket as the quantity is much more then at retail. (I missed out the weight of the item when I took the picture. )

But it's a sale for a reason.... the expiry date is a month later... so if there's just 2 in your family and you don't intend to stuff your face with sausages every day, better not buy a lot. 

If you don't know what's nice or what to buy, there's also a tasting corner for cold cuts. Because the weather is also so hot, they don't want people to faint or choke on the food, they also provide cold drinks... 

Here's Mr Hubby having breakfast heheh 

What's available for sampling. 

Close view... 

The fridge section... 

I was attended by lady boss herself... this is what we bought on that day.

1) Nacho cheese for sister, Lasagne and Pita bread for ourselves

2)  Beef sausage, Chicken Ham, Salami and Beef Shepherd's Pie for ourselves and Cheesy Frank for Sis. Remember I mentioned it's cheap because it's hitting expiry date soon? See below. Take note of the expiry date. 

3) French rack for us... Yea... Gonna bring this to mom's place and enjoy with the rest.

4) Mint sauce for the lamb, Jalapeno pickle for my pita bread and Balsamic vinegar

5) And this is the real reason why we go Zac in the first place :-)

6) Our damage at Zac for that day... 

Off to our next stop... which is Melvados.... 

psst ... if you are interested to go... the next warehouse sale will be last Sat of Nov which is on 30 November 2013. They are also going to have their annual xMAS sale on 22 - 24 Dec 13 10:30am to 3:30pm. Mark your calendar !! 

To be continued.... I'm going out to buy ingredients for Macaron. This will be my first attempt in making Macaron. Wish me luck. 

Every last Saturday of the month
