About Us
Spanish-born Alberto Andres and Rufino Ramos (formerly Chez Phat and The European Group) run this deli-meets-bodega at Stall 45 inside South Melbourne Market — part gourmet pantry, part counter-service wine bar. Shelves stock Carrasco Iberian ham, Don Juan cheeses, Campotoro olives, Olasagasti anchovies and Victorian-made Spanish-style smallgoods; the bodega counter serves tomato-rubbed bocadillos, empanadillas, tapas platters and warm specials with Spanish coffees, cava and tintos while market shoppers pause between aisles. Alberto pairs jamones and cheeses tableside; gift vouchers and an online shop extend the retail side beyond market days.
