grocery shopping

Pazar

The pazar is the best place to get fresh vegetable.  They even have fish, eggs, dried goods, and fresh bread.  It is like Farmer’s market but much cheaper.  There are different vendors selling the same stuff, so you have to walk around and find the best place with the cheapest prices and freshest food.  You can usually bargain with them, but since it is so cheap I usually don’t bother.  You can buy half a kilo so just say “yarım kilo”.

METU: There is a pazar in Yüzüncüyıl if you walk up from Sunshine cafe.  It is right next to the supermarket Çağdaş.

Supermarkets

Most of the commercial food, like cereals, canned goods, soda would have to be bought in super markets.  There are a couple that I remember:  Şok, Çağdaş, Carefour.
