Every last Friday of the month there is a market held in the grounds of Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church. I have to admit that I feel like a bit of an idiot that I never knew this market existed until recently! There are loads of stands that sell everything food related with lovely fresh produce and interesting cuisines to enjoy. On the day I went it was raining and cool, but that didn't stop anyone from having a good time. As I went by myself I didn't try as much as I would have liked to, but took plenty of pictures so you can get a feel for how diverse this market it (and I only had my old iPhone so sorry for the quality of images!)
So much fruit! |
Paella? Don't mind if I do! |
Indian or Greek? There are so many cuisines to choose from! |
Great selection of fresh produce |
Mmmm lamb! |
Latin Street Food |
Although I didn't buy much, what I did get needs a special shout out. Arepa Street Latin street food had these most amazing sliders (arepas). This is shredded beef, fried plantains and queso fresco on a cornmeal bread. So good and worth coming down just to chow down on these babies!
I will have to go back at the end of this month and try out some more options, but I totally recommend a visit. It is great to have a market like this in the local area!
