International street market

One of the reasons why I adore food, is food markets! The vibrante atmosphere of these markets is something very special, it brings people together and with all of the colours, scents and tastes, it is a completely different experience than going to an ordinary supermarket.
Enjoy the spectra that is Linköping International street market 2010!



'

Italian cakes, cannelonies and biscottis (my favorite stand as far as esthetics go!):

Amaretti biscuits


Almond paste with coffee, Almond paste with mixed berries, Fagottini short bread (pastry filled with chocolate filling), Croccante (pistachio and almond biscuit)


Cannoli Siciliani (crispy shell with hazelnut filling), White Almonds (pure almond paste), Cantuccini and almonds, Cantuccini and nutella



Italian fig rolls, Flakes (soft biscuit with raisins, rum and corn flakes)


Almond paste with mandarin, Mini Croissant (crispy shell with hazelnut cream), Almond paste with cinnamon, Almond paste with lime



Although we had MANY choises regarding what food to eat, I chose one of my all time favorite- dishes; Paella! This classic spanish dish basically contains everything a meal usually consists of: rice, seafood (preferably), spices and vegetables. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves..








And something sweet to finish off this cavalcade of gorgeous pictures.. A German couple that started a small fudge factory in England had one of the biggest tents at the market today, consisting of fudges and candies with all the tastes you could ever imagine.. This is truly original, creative and absloutely IRRESISTABLE!
