Now this is fresh

Although there is no regard for 'health and safety' (I love the cigarette) this is truly fresh fish from the sea being cut and sold in a market in Palermo. Am sure these men have been doing this for ages so I would not doubt the freshness. It was a delight walking through this market with J-Lo, the sights and sounds were great -and am sure they were not selling any brown edged salmon!

(from BestofSicily.com) This market called Mercatto Vucceria (from the Norman French "boucherie"), is perhaps the favourite Palermitan market for visitors. It begins at Piazza San Domenico toward Piazza Caracciolo and Corso Vittorio Emanuele, branching off along Via Argenteria.
