I love to shop in the old market district. There is all kinds of fresh bread every morning.
And bulk olive oil. You can bring your own containers.
It's rough around the edges but that is what makes it charming.
Hand painted signs
And they are very gracious!
Fresh flowers along the sidewalk.
Freshly made pizza and pastas.
And a nun selling raffle tickets.....it's hard to say no to a nun!
Everything is much cheaper than in grocery stores.
And you can buy large quantities if you want to.
I was there earlier than the vendors. You really have to push hygiene out of your mind.
Some souped up autos line the streets.
Lots of Asian markets too.
I love to cook but I don't really get the cook to love...well, maybe.
Lots of little cafes.
You can find almost anything you need.
Didn't Burger King just get in trouble for something like this. This is a woman that loves her gyros!
Buskers
Sidewalk vendors
Selling summer dresses and winter hats
Things for the garden
And live plants
Wild life!!!
Hey, someone might drop something. There is a lot of sidewalk food after all.
Want a pair of shoes?
Or maybe a purse?
I love this place!!!

Christer.
have a magical weekend.
As for hygiene, as you say, it's not a priority... but well washed and cooked, the food is ok, as long as it smells nice.
Been on the job all week, lulu is tired ;)
You don't want to know what our farmer's market looks like...it's sad.
