Rreth
Fakte të shpejta: Expect an immediate blast of salty, smoky aroma as you weave past stalls piled high with cured seafood like danggit, tuyo, and dried squid. Locals tote purchases in insulated bags for long trips, and many vendors sell small, neatly wrapped portions labeled by weight so visitors can bring samples home.
Pikat kryesore: A quirky local habit is sampling on the spot, with some stalls displaying more than 20 varieties of dried fish arranged on banana leaves for quick taste tests. Up close, you can feel sun-crisp textures, smell a mingling of smoke and sea salt, and hear vendors chant names like "danggit" while wrapping purchases in paper and plastic for long journeys.

- Bring a small insulated bag if buying perishable dried seafood for the trip home.
