Our first stop is at Mercado Central or Central Market. This is one of the oldest markets in Quito and my favorite. We will explore the market, have a local fruit juice, learn about the immense variety of fruits and vegetables available, meet market vendors, and have a traditional snack "mote con fritada". After this fun-packed adventure, we will head to our cooking class.
