Lovely! Markets are also a favourite of mine, especially when travelling. I have fond memories of outdoor farmers’ markets in Paris with tables heaped with every possible variety of edible fungi! I too was lucky to have visited Testaccio market last autumn where we bought some wonderful vegetables and a nice steak to take home and cook up our apartment. There is a very well-known sandwich stall there that specializes in tripe, but like you I do not indulge. ☺️
Masterful storytelling, Harry ... love the interweaving of the Italian experience with tales of Grainger Market. No tripe in this writing; just the very finest cut, flavoured with a sprinkling of flâneur's observations. Lovely stuff.
Met fellow Book Guild writer, Bridget Gubbins in Grainger Market last week. We had excellent Indian street food then Bridget paid to get weighed at the weigh house. Love Grainger Market

“What tripe” as my dad used to say whenever I talked nonsense. Which was often. Fascinating meandering Harry.
