I know that this might be a long way to go for food but just the mention of it makes my taste buds tingle and I am trying not to drool over my keyboard as I write this.
Not only are there rows upon rows of stalls selling organic fruit and vegetables, but there are also Ollie Bollens (a Dutch doughnut.)
A stall that claims it sells the smallest doughnuts on the planet, Sweets and Treats, sells the freshest crumbliest shortbread I have ever tasted, giandujah a slab of soft chocolate with whole hazelnuts, and another chocolate that is like a cherry ripe (coconut mixed in with cherries squashed between two layers of dark chocolate).
As you walk around filling your bags with goodies for later your nose twitches with the smells of satays, noodles, spring rolls, German sausages all these made by the wide ethnic mixture of people who live on this island.
The market is flanked by sandstone buildings which used to be warehouses for ancient mariners who fished for whales. They are now craft shops, galleries, restaurants and second hand book shops.
And don’t worry about gaining weight, the stalls are along a long street that is blocked off for this occasion every Saturday and if you feel naughty at having sampled all the products you can always run up and down Kelly’s Steps (named after one of these successful fishermen) a few times which take you in the direction of Battery point.
