Here, the butchers, fishmongers, florists, fruiterers, and deli owners not only fill your baskets but happily lend a hand carrying them to your car if they become too heavy.
The delightful medley of mixed chatter creates a unique soundtrack.
Moreover, if you seek rare recipe ingredients, the traders here are unparalleled. They stock everything you could desire and will move mountains to source them for you, just as long as you share how the finished dish tasted.
