I love the market with so many interesting things in it. 😃
Re: drugs and drinks and food in one place, that's how it is in the US everywhere. Every pharmacy also has food. Of course, they charge a lot more -sometimes double!- than if you went to a supermarket for the same food. I think they are taking advantage of being in the neighborhood where supermarkets are more spread out, and sick people won't want to make multiple stops, but if they are stopping for medicine they might also grab bread and milk, even if it's more expensive, at the same store.
