RIGA CENTRAL MARKET FOOD TOUR!

We couldn't resist a food tour at Riga Central Market, the largest food market in all of Europe! The market is built in 5 zeppelin hangars, and is included with Riga Old Town as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

After arriving in the food court hangar (Centrālais Gastro Tirgus), we were overwhelmed with the sheer amount of food to choose from. We ended up trying some really delicious foods and having an awesome day at Riga Central Market. This is by far one of the top things to do in Riga!

Thanks so much for watching! Don’t forget to like and subscribe :)

You shouldn't be surprised about potato being some of the best you have ever had. We live and breathe potato.

Fact: if you record a video in Latvia and put "Latvia" in your video title, the whole comment section will be full of latvian comments.

Awesome day in Riga!  I wish that I were in Riga.  Latvians bake very good bread and they are good making preserved fruit and vegetables.

Cool! Happy that even couples from America likes our city and food :)

Hey guys! A great vlog :) If you are still in Latvia, please do try to visit some medieval German crusaders castles outside Riga, for example Sigulda-Turaida, Cesis (the capital of the Livonian Order), castle of Bauska. Or a beautiful 18th century baroque palace of Rundale, it is staining, like Versailles in France, it was build for a Duke of Kurland - Ernst Johann von Biron ( a lover of a Russian empress Anna and regent of the Russian Empire 1740), for example HBO series Catherine The Grate (which is now on) was filmed there and resent BBC series War an Pace as well.
Also a little town of Kuldiga is like a frozen history, it barely changed since the 18th century and looks like something from a fairy-tale, also in Kuldiga you can find the widest waterfall in Europe. And of course, everywhere you go you can try some local food and beer, even some local vine (the most northern in the world) :)
Latvia is a relatively small country, so you can get anywhere in the morning by bus or a train and get back to Riga in the evening.
Enjoy Latvia :)

Riga Central Market pavilions have never been zeppelins. They are built using metal structures that were intended for zeppelin hangar construction. Which he was abandoned leaving German troops in 1919.

We love to make fries from fresh potato which is much more flavourful and not so dry as store bought frozen ones. Using dried herbs in the oil adds to the flavour along with the fresh ones on top.
With two weeks in Latvia you'll get so fat not being able to resist all the food and you'll love it! :D

[davidross]

Excellent choice of topics from the city.

Hi! You definitely drink kefir along with those fries plus sauerkraut ;-)

[raivojutans]

One or two teaspoons poured into coffee is the way to drink. Black Balsam originally was prepared as drugs (medicine) in 17/18 Centuries.
