Goose Neck Market

Chinese like their meat fresh and not hung like graded beef in North America. The pork here is as fresh as can be, killed early this morning. Lovely pink meat.









Vegetables too, no refrigeration no sprinkle, there is no need. There is no one leave showing any deterioration. Fresh as can be.










And fish, no where in the world is freshness of the fish is taken more seriously. Fresh fish means only live fish. Once they even show a sign that they will soon be dying, they are taken off the water and their price cut by a third. Once they die, well, half price is generous. I know of no better way to buy a fish.







Cooked meat too, they keep coming out of the kitchen and sold still hot. In Europe or in North America, to roast a pig or a goose or a duck is a serious and expansive restaurant experience, here, well, it is street food. The pork is crisp on the skin and the meat is creamy. And the ducks and goose are crisp, moist and tasty with little fat left under the skin. Taillevent has nothing on these guys.
