Essentials
There is a good shopping centre with a Coles supermarket and Asian grocery store located in East Village (Defries Ave, Zetland) but it’s a bit of a walk. The M20 bus passes nearby. There is also an IGA supermarket on Botany Road (walk towards the airport direction) but it’s not excellent.
