Experience The Market
The influx of international influences on the South 9th Street Italian Market, and its surrounding neighborhood is a wonderful assault on the senses. The smell of herbs and spices, fresh seafood , and ground coffee beans mingles perfectly with the crackle of the butcher’s brown paper, multiple languages heard the on the street, and the sight of fresh sheets of pasta and silky ribbons of homemade chocolate drying in storefront windows–not to mention the dozens of rows of colorful produce. The market can be especially cozy in the winter when merchants use barrels of fire to keep shoppers warm and all of the smells are heightened.
