Description

Khanom, grilled skewers and bags of fruit are the sensible reason to stop at Wednesday Market, with fried chicken available for anyone whose cooking plans collapse at the smell of hot oil. This is the north-island market for actual groceries: herbs, greens, fruit, meat, fish and enough chilli to correct a dull curry.

The covered stalls keep the heat off while you browse vegetables, locally made snacks and cookies. Fresh produce is the strongest argument, especially for anyone staying somewhere with a kitchen and refusing to pay resort-shop prices for a lime.

Fish, meat and seafood sit alongside ready-to-eat food, cold drinks and a scattering of second-hand clothes. The clothes rails are a small bonus, chiefly for those who need a shirt with a past (and possibly several previous owners).

Wednesday Market belongs on a food-shop run, not a souvenir crawl. Bring a bag, buy fruit for breakfast, stock up on curry ingredients, then leave with more grilled chicken than your original plan allowed.

Highlights

Insider Tip
Bring a reusable bag or scooter basket; the fruit, vegetables and snack bags add up faster than expected.
