Produce in Medellín Mercado.

Self-caterers can stop into this colorful market for quality cuts of meat, fresh produce and nuts among the piñatas. It's also a popular spot for lunch: grab a stool at one of the vendors or fondas and enjoy tamales, pozole (a hominy and meat stew) and tacos washed down with horchata (rice drink).
