P365 TE Day 89

Mercado Municipal de São Paulo



Travel Bite: One of the must visit places in São Paulo, is the Central Market. It's similar to the Mercato San Lorenzo in Florence, as it has food stalls and the biggest assortment of exotic fruit. The Must Try is the Pastel (a savoury pastry) available in many stalls. People normally go for the Bacalao (Cod), but they also have meat and cheese options.

For the fruit, while stall owners are generous with tasting portions, ask the price first before you buy. My daughter wanted some Mangosteens (which are dirt cheap in Asia) and a kilo from there would have cost Php2,500 (vs Php50-Php100 here!). I just had to say NO Thank You nicely.
