In fact I went there last (during one of the revivals) about 4-5 years ago... tasted the same.. @Veena: Partly correct

After the complex came up we had to walk much more to reach this place. I find the vendors in the market quite snooty - you know, the bekidre thogolli illandre I dont care kinds. The IX Block market is very good these days. And ofcourse the avarekai sellers in BSK Vijay: We lived near MadhavanPark and would cross the empty field (“cross-cut”) to reach Bharat Cafe – that original chat joint.

I have not been inside the market for years now... I prefer an Open Air market like Gandhi Bazaar or NR Colony.... actually to tell you the truth, I dont do the vegetable buying at all .. usually most of the daily produce comes in a cart in front of the house :-) @Mohan,Chitra,chethan: Coming soon :-)

I will ask my husband about Jayanagar. I know that he used to play cricket on the field which houses the complex now. I am guessing you are all contemporaries :-) I love walking in the Jayanagar market especially the flower section. We buy jackfruit and wander around inhaling the flower scents until the fish hits us! Then we scamper outside and stick with the fancy stores buying bindi and mehendi packets :-) Interesting.
