Western supermarket is about convenience and cleaniness. Everything is neaty displayed and desensitized (i.e. you can’t tell that that slab of meat in a plastic wrap used to come from a cow.) Chinese markets are all about fresh produce. Unfortunately, some markets in Hong Kong are moving towards the Western model. Very sad. :(
@pigpen, 哈哈, 你仲乜學太空人講野? :)
@fresh, 污糟就真係缺點, 不過傳統街市既活力真係無可取替!
@Toku, 依家有D都仲可以講幾蚊架! 不過細個真係檔檔都要講下先安樂! :)
@dengelina, Western style has its advantage of being convenient and clean within the store, but then you lose the interaction with the merchants who sell you the food in traditional Chinese market. It’s sad to see the Chinese style market disappearing…
這張拍出來的感覺很好呀！
我都有同感,
啲魚佬,菜婆係咁叫賣,
真係好有MOOD架,
不過地下就濕泣泣好污糟,
無超市咁乾淨了,
針無兩頭利! =(
有好有唔好,呢啲檔細個嗰陣可以講下折頭,但就真係好濕好”哪喳”…
