Italian markets (mercati) are a celebration of fresh, seasonal produce and local specialties.
In this lesson, you'll learn to shop at the market — asking for quantities, prices, and quality.
Italians are passionate about food quality, so market vocabulary is essential!
Every Italian city has its mercato — from Florence's Mercato Centrale to Rome's Campo de' Fiori. Vendors appreciate when you ask 'Cosa mi consiglia?' (What do you recommend?) — they love sharing their knowledge about their products.
