Market One at Lung Center in Quezon City

It has been a longtime since we last visited Sidcor, now called the Market One, located at the Lung Center in Quezon City. Here, one can find a lot of fresh produce, freshly baked goodies, organic food, live crabs and other fish products, cooked food, plants, pets, furnitures and the usual stuff like accessories, clothes and knick-knacks.

This is a few minutes from where we live.

Why we chose to go there yesterday resulted in both good and bad decisions.

It was a bad decision because it rained a just after we got there. Hubby and the two younger kids just got themselves a box of pizza, some drinks and went to eat in the car. Trixie and I went around to look for things to bring home. I wasn’t able to take photos too.

On the other hand, it was a good decision because we were able to get good fish parts. We had a “maya-maya ulo sinigang sa miso” or snapper (head) sour soup with miso. We also got vegetables, a tray of eggs (30 pieces), a grilled tuna for lunch and a piece of yakon (this is going to be another post).

One of the many fish stalls at Market One. This was where I got my snapper head and other fish parts (upper right side of photo).

Grilled fish. The stall’s tarp sign says it is Grilled Tuna but it doesn’t taste like tuna to me. Anyway, we still enjoyed it for lunch. I had it with fresh tomatoes and raw onions (gah!).
