Litratong Pinoy#68 Palengke (Market)

Every night, this nearby street corner turns into a small marketplace. Fresh vegetables, fruits, seafoods, meat and etcetera are being sold here. This is why we do not go to the market that much anymore especially that the prices are all just the same. In some instances, the prices are even lower because sellers from the province bring and sell their products here.

Pilipino:
Tuwing gabi, nagiging munting palengke ang kantong ito na malapit sa amin. Mga preskong gulay, prutas, mga lamang dagat, karne at kung anu-ano pang bilihin ang andito. Kaya tuloy, hindi na kami masyadong pumupunta sa palengke lalo pa’t pare-pareho lang ang mga presyo ng mga bilihin. Minsan pa nga, mas mura pa dahil na rin may mga pumupuwestong manininda na galing pa sa probinsiya.


Along with the fresh produce, there are also cooked food like barbecue, grilled fish, boiled eggs and some more. This is why, this street corner is always busy with people around.

Pilipino:
Kasama sa mga preskong bilihin, may mga lutong pagkain na rin gaya ng barbekyu, inihaw na mga isda, nilagang itlog at iba pa. Kaya naman, itong kantong ito palaging matao.
