"This is a very small municipal market."

"A little poor, it only has three positions. On Tuesday they also set up the stalls that usually go to the towns and you can find a great variety of local cheeses, what happens is that since they don't have the price listed you fear they will give you the prize and the truth is I didn't ask."

"Four permanent stalls (one for cheese and cured meats, one for fruit, a butcher and cured meats shop, and a fishmonger) and three cheese shops that open on Tuesdays. Incredible quality. It's true that the prices are a little higher than the others, but the quality makes it worth it. Gaby's fishmonger is a highlight. Excellent service and products. The barnacles and clams are especially good."
