Saint John has the market....on fish

This past weekend I visited the city market in Saint John…...delicious!

I checked one fish and two vegetable stands for Canadian content. The vegetable choices looked about the same as here in Fredericton. Lots of selections from Mexico, but just a few Canadian choices.

It was a very different story with the fresh fish……lots of choices. I was told the fish was all caught off Nova Scotia. Their fish looked delicious….and very fresh. I bought the Lemon Dill Haddock and a few fish cakes.

I visited a few other stalls, bought bread, cookies and some great snacking chips. I now wish I had picked up a few of the dipping sauces to go with the chips. I also found wine made in New Brunswick…it looked interesting, and a plus for any wine drinker who wants to try the 100 mile diet in NB.

It is a gourmet delight visiting this market.
