Prehliadka trhu La Ribera

Tietoa

Nopeat faktat: La Ribera Market occupies what was once the site of a Franciscan convent, and its steel and glass structure from 1929 hides a vast 10,000 square meter interior. Each morning, over 150 vendors supply fresh catches from the Cantabrian Sea alongside locally sourced Basque produce.

Kohokohdat: The fish auction happens right inside the market at dawn, with local txakoli wine poured from arm's length into glasses to create the perfect frothy head. You can grab a plate of freshly shucked oysters at the bar while watching crates of glistening hake and turbot being unloaded just meters away.

Sisäpiirin vinkit

• Head to the first floor for the least crowded seating and a balcony view of the action below.
• Order a 'txikito' (small pour) of txakoli to taste the local sparkling white wine without committing to a full glass.
• Skip the premade pintxo trays and ask for whatever just came off the grill for the freshest options.
• Bring cash as several smaller stalls and fish counters don't accept cards.
