Weekend Stroll Through Groningen's Fish Market 🐟🦐

The Vismarkt (Fish Market) in Groningen is a lively weekend spot—full of fresh produce, local treats, and very Dutch vibes! Here's the lowdown on what to expect: 🛍️ Market Highlights Seafood is pricey but popular 🦞 Lobster, mussels, and herring stalls had long lines—clearly locals love their seafood (even if it costs a pretty penny 💸). Dutch fries = greasy indulgence 🍟 Shared a portion with my husband, and wow… so oily but addictive! Best with mayo (of course). Nuts & dried fruit galore 🌰🍍 One stall let us sample generously—tried almonds, coconut chips, and dried mango. Ended up buying a mix because… why not? Veggie bargains (if you pick well) 🍆🌶️ Some items (like eggplants & bell peppers) were cheaper than supermarkets, but freshness varied. Fruit: Affordable but limited 🍓 Prices were decent, but sigh… nothing beats the variety and prices of Chinese wet markets! 💰 Price Check Seafood: €€€ (but fresh!) Produce: Some deals, some duds Snacks: Worth trying once! Vibes 🎪 Busy but fun—great for people-watching. Local tip: Go early for the best picks! #Groningen #NetherlandsLife #DutchFood #MarketDay #ExpatLife 🌷
