On the weekends, people from the surrounding villages AND people in town come together for what we call a market day. They sell every fruit and vegetable known to man... in fact all kinds of things. You could buy anything from asparagus to shoes, as long as you know how to bargain. You know how smell is most associated with memory? There was a certain smell that will remind me of the marketplace. A mix of fresh vegetables and dried herbs and incense.
An example of the food. This is Yang Huo Guo (lamb hot pot). It was opened by Muslims so they didn't have any pork, but boy was it so good. And for 3 people, we totally dug into this monster. Speaking of hot pot. Those of you in the bay area. We must go hot potting. It is essential. And as Diddy said at the most recent MTV video music awards: "Anything can happen."
