MERCADO N° 1 (MERCADITO)

Asunción's first municipal market is known as "El Mercadito". While this small market, which has existed since 1940, is far from offering so many products and the frenzy of the famous Mercado N° 4, it remains a reference in traditional Paraguayan popular cuisine. The setting is most typical and one eats on long tables in rows, under the fans, in the company of the worker or bank employee. You can enjoy a delicious caldo de pescado, a milanesa or the famous "purtón", served of course with a good portion of mandioca.
