The Indian shop in the mcwhirters mall in fortitude valley has a pretty good deal on veggie MREs. Woolies and Coles sell similar veggie MRE bags for $3 or $4. So $1 is not a bad buy. I have eaten all of the varieties and can vouch for them except for the dumplings one which tastes terrible.
Bung this together with some rice and you've got a meal that is fit for a New start recipient.
Name of the shop is geeta enterprises, shop 30 mcwhirters mall, Brunswick street fortitude valley.
Was there palak paneer?
