Perhaps Mercat de Santa Caterina is a bit far from the main shopping area of Barcelona, the prices of the goods sold inside are reasonable, Choumeizai has eaten oyster breakfast here, cheap but delicious.
Located in La Ribera, the Mercat de Santa Caterina has been in operation since 1848. It was recently remodeled in 2005.
There are various kinds of goods selling in the market, mainly the local products such as ham, cheese and sausage. Most of the shops allow the customers to taste before they buy, you can choose the one you really like.
Besides the dried goods, the market also sells fresh seafoods, looks very attractive.
One of the seafood stalls sells fresh oysters, the shop owner says all oysters are freshly transported from France. Choumeizai buys one dozen for breakfast, all oysters are creamy and tasty, the deliciousness is out of the world.
In addition, there are some tables and chairs inside the market, you can enjoy your food immediately.
The best time to come here is in the morning, not so many people at this time so you can shop around comfortably.
