Does anyone know where I can buy seeds to grow tomatoes, chilis and things like that on my balcony?

Go to the market and buy the best looking tomato, chilli, etc. Cut the seeds out and let them dry. Plant seeds in pot. Done.

Alternatively, I'm pretty sure Orussey market sells seeds.

They have all sorts of seeds, there are a dozen stalls or more if you wander about a bit.

You could also try Aeon and enjoy some aircon during your search.

Ground floor just in from the main entrance, near where they sell plants and gardening sundries. There is also an assortment of packaged seeds and potting soil.

The selection is not great but I picked up some chili seeds, spring onion seeds, and a few packets of flower seeds.

The spring onions and chili's are coming along nicely, the flowers, not so much. But I blame that on my lack of a green-thumb.
