Now that’s a real wet market! We went to the other one called seaside village. That place you guys visited seems much bigger. I noticed there’s no prices displayed…we might need a local if we go. 😅

Lol. That Seaside Village one has a better ambiance though. We still gotta try that one. The Dampa Seaside had some prices displayed. But yes we just made our rounds and compared prices. Not sure if it's the "tourist" prices but we expected it anyways if it was. Maybe one of these days we can go to Farmers Market in Cubao or Market Market in BGC together to practice our wet market skills 🤪, and find our suki vendors 🙏!

It’s so ripped off there. They’re trying to sell us a $300 for a lobster 🦞. They jacked up the prices after they found out that my family members are from the US.

Wow 🤯 Aww man that's too bad 😞. It definitely can be a tourist trap. We did go in there knowing the fact they are overpriced in certain items. So that's why we just go for the ones that are affordable and reasonable for us. And we try to go to several vendors to compare. Not sure how much lobsters are at other local palengkes, but yeah we would definitely not pay $300 for a lobster, not even in the States 😄🤪.
