St Louis Mobile Market
In the mainland of the City of Saint Louis, just a little above the bridge, is the mobile food market. Be sure to know that it is actually pretty unpleasant. Even though almost everyone shops there, I think we just weren't accustomed. There are all kinds of food like meat that is exposed to air, right next to others that smells like fish. The smell is so fishy like the remains of fish right after cleaning. There are fruit baskets on the floor, vegetables, nuts ... and a mess, with a mixture of smells, shapes, dust ... It is worth seeing, really, but do not expect anything heavenly or the typical European market.
Africa in its purest form is a few square meters where dogs and some other animals roam while people come and go with food bags or baskets on their heads. Try not to mind the stench and dirt. There are a few sites to choose from for buying things, and some are more expensive. It's possible that nothing will happen if you buy and eat that food, but I think few actually come forth and try it. The fruit and such food goes, perola meat and fish ... I did not try it... Furthermore I was impregnated with the smell everything. Some stands sells other things like shirts, pens, cassettes ... varied ... It's right next to the old station.
