What a great barrio market! You see, every Italian town/city/village/borough has its own open air…read moremarket, offering from food to clothing. This event takes place twice a week. Streets are closed down, it's just for pedestrians. On Tuesdays, the stands offer mostly fruits and vegetables, fish and poultry and some flowers.
Italian street markets are something to visit and preserve like a work of art. Some of the best fish from the Mediterranean are sold here, the best Italian fruits and vegetables, on Saturdays you'll find a food stands selling roast chicken or chicken skewers, nothing fried, no hamburgers or hot dogs, only local street food.
These markets are a concentration of good smells, flavors, colors, produce at any price.
The quality of fruit and veggies is much higher that what you buy at any supermarket. Local markets are one of the best things in Italy. They should do everything to preserve them. I'm particularly fond of this one, it's my barrio's street market:)
