Our one and only full day to explore Santiago and we were in the business center approving proofs for our invite. From there (and after some sniffing around on chowhound with a corroboration from our concierge), we took the subway over to Mercado Central – the central seafood market. One of my favorite ways to see a city is to explore their local food market and this was the place to do it.

Unfortunately, we were utterly spoiled by our royal treatment and experience at Tsukiji Market in Japan (more on that at another point) so this was a bit of a disappointment.
