Najbolje vreme za posetu

Go between 8 and 11am, when the day's swordfish glistens on ice and vendors chant at full volume. Most stalls pack up by early afternoon, so a late visit means closed shutters and swept pavement.

Saveti za budžet

Walking in costs nothing; bring 5 and 10 euro notes because few vendors take cards. Share a few street snacks between two people to eat well for around 8 euros total.

O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Otprilike 40 tezgi nagurano je u spuštenom trgu na kome se trguje još od kada je arapski emirat vladao ostrvom pre hiljadu godina. Cene se ovde izvikuju, a ne ispisuju, a iste porodice rade na nekim mestima više od jednog veka.

Istaknuto: Abaniata je prava atrakcija: prodavci izvikuju rimovane, teatralne napieve o cenama koji zvuče kao improvizovana opera usred galame. Svratite do čoveka sa stigiolom, koji peče kozja creva direktno nad žarom u gvozdenom buretu i seče ih makazama, tri evra po kornetu.

Insajderski saveti

Wear closed-toe shoes, the aisles stay slick with fish water and crushed leaves.
Eat at the stalls two or three lanes deep, where portions are bigger and prices lower than the piazza edge.
Photograph the fish displays before 9am, when the light is soft and aisles are still passable.
Point and nod to lock a price fast; haggling beyond a quick back-and-forth rarely wins a better deal.
