Adelaide is taking it to the streets and challenging Melbourne's claim to quirky moveable food stalls with Jonny's mobile kettle popcorn 'pop-up' shop.



The stall is staffed by some uber-friendly popcorn poppers, who are happy to provide taster cups of all the astonishing flavours which are freshly-popped in their enormous popcorn-'kettle' (looked like a wok to me, but what do I know!).



In terms of flavours, think all-time favourites: sweet and salty (YUMMMM), butter and sweet and crunchy (but never sickly) caramel. But what about chilli, cheese or chocolate chip flavoured popcorn - go wild! The kernels are sizzled super-hot using soy-bean oil (the high temperatures ensure each popcorn absorbs very little oil) and apparently rate as a healthy snack because it lowers your cholesterol. As if I needed an excuse.



The pop-up shop is a moving feast - literally. Apparently, owners Jonny and Ian were competing in ballroom dancing competitions in the US and sampled the 'wickedly delicious' delights of kettle popcorn while there but couldn't find it on their return to Australia, so they set out to provide it and for many years have had their stall popping away madly to much acclaim at the Royal Show. Now, they're on the move: you can currently find the stall on Hindley Street on Tuesdays and Fridays, Weymouth Street on Wednesdays, Hindmarsh Square on Thursdays and the Rundall Mall on Sundays. Yum!
