Sanyuanli Market (三元里市场)

San Yuan Li is a wet market in Beijing that caters to foreigners and foreign restaurants that buy in bulk. You can get ricotta cheese, avocados, turkeys, and nutella, as well as sage rosemary and thyme. It’s the best.

This haul of vegetables cost RMB 98. The dairy (cream, cheese, sour cream) totaled RMB 67. That is a total of about 25 US bucks.

It fed 13 people.
