Brittany, looking very tired-yet-excited to be shopping at an outdoor market. |
I saw things I have never seen before or since. Like these spotty pink beans.
And some familiar favorites. I definitely bought a good amount of deeelicious sundried tomatoes.
Some things I left alone.
Others looked tasty and tempting!
There was a great variety of goods available, and the displays were lovely.
This was my favorite. I wanted to try them all!
I'm not as passionate about leafy greens, but they still looked good.
These looked....interesting!
Ok, so I typically don't like the look/smell/taste of seafood, but this is undeniably appealing to me. Don't you just want to poke the center??
It being an island, there tended to be a lot of seafood.
If you are ever in Venice you should definitely check it out and interact with a few of the real locals (an endangered species) of the city. Prices are cheap, and the goods are fresh and tasty (the edible ones, anyway). The Rialto Market operates Monday-Saturday, 8-Noon, and has been running for about...1,000 years. No big deal.
