The English Market appreciation thread

[MerchantOfEnnis]

When I ask myself "what is my favorite place in Cork City?" I generally think of our wonderful English Market.

Any other fans there? I try to go in a few times a week, the buzz is unrivalled and I think the place is just a fantastic microcosm of Cork. The characters, the sounds, the smells, all under one roof.

I'd be hard pressed to choose my top 3 stalls but at the moment it would be

On the Pig's Back
O'Sullivan Poultry
Coffee Central

Any other market fans here? What are YOUR favorite stalls?

There are also a few stalls which I think are shite and they piggy back off the reputation of the market, but I won't name them.
