Atarasu Farmers Market — Attraction in Miyakojima

Now this is a proper farmers market. Delectable selection of uber fresh vegetables and fruit. If I had known it would be this great, I would of been coming here from day one. The chillies look wonderful. Still retained their colours even though dried. Not at all faded. Prices for vegetables are decent, but most fruit, like melons were not cheap. Love this place, as great choice of stuffs, and it's supporting the farming community by purchasing here. Bought chillies and the freshest peppers and okra today. Also several bento boxes. The food is so fresh and tasty. The okinawa sugar quality looked above premium. It was expensive, but I will get it in the...

Quite an interesting market that offers all sorts of tropical fruits and other seasonal produce from the island. We found the Brazilian cherries "Pitanga" that we never had before. Also, there are other products from different restaurants/shops around like tofu from Magotofu, zenzai, and doughnuts.

The umibudo is cheaper here and ready to eat with a small sauce...

観光最終日、マンゴーを見つけて自分の気にいる個体を取ったが、レジの店員がパッケージにバーコードがないからレジを通せないと言い、別の価格の別のマンゴーにすり替えて会計をしようとした。またそれに対して一言も「変更した」という言葉もなく、700円も高くなった会計を普通にしようとしてきて、とても憤りを感じています。 私が選んだマンゴーを取りに戻ったがどこにも無くなっていて、他のマンゴーも他のお客さんが取った後で無くなってしまっていた。宮古観光の最後の思い出がこれになりました。 その店員さんの特徴は、髪が明るいショートカットで、ふくよかな、妙齢女性です。

On the last day of sightseeing, I found a mango and took an individual that I liked, but the clerk at the cash register said that the package did not have a bar code so I could not go through the cash register, and tried to switch it for another mango of a different price to pay the bill. I am also very upset that he did not say a single word about it, not even a "changed" word, and tried to normalize the bill which was 700 yen higher. I went back to get the mango I had chosen, but it was nowhere to be found, and the other mangoes were gone after other customers had taken them. This was to be my last memory of sightseeing in Miyako. The clerk is described as a plump, oddly aged woman with...
