The food here is very fresh, tasty and cheap. A lot of local will do their daily groceries here. There is one restaurant in the middle, 大学堂. U can order for a bowl of white steam rice here. Then, u can do some "shoppings" along the market to fill up ur bowl of rice with food tht u like. The traditional marinated fish (makerel, sardine, etc.) goes very well with the white rice. In fact, i feel like want to order a second bowl of rice to finish the whole fish. As for the fruit, i bought some japanese big apples. They are sweet and juicy. Take note of some stalls tht sell strawberry at cheaper price. They were already cut into half. I guess there is indication on the packs but well i wouldnt know it cause i dont understd the language. Overall, i recommend tht this market is a must-go place if u had the chance to visit Kitakyushu.
