"Mercado Atarazanas"

Today I went to a huge fresh foods market near my apartment. It has over 20 different "stands" of fresh produce such as: meat, fish, vegetables, fruit and even sweets. They are called "Carniceria" "pescaderia" "fruteria" "pasteleria" etc. You can find many of these individual fresh foods stands on the street but this place is so great because it is a one stop shop. It is not all one company, there are several brands competing. It is under a giant tent-like structure. I went there today and bought 4 apples, 4 oranges, 2 tomatoes, 1 onion, 1 piece of garlic and a head of lettuce for only 6euro!
Obviously there is copious amounts of jamón.
