"A great place to familiarise yourself with the local produce is at the impressive Riga Central Market, located not far from the Daugava River. It’s one of Europe’s largest and busiest markets, with up to 10,000 visitors a day passing through its doors. Five imposing 1920s pavilions – two of which were formerly military airship hangers – house the food halls, with each one dedicated to a different category: vegetables, dairy, meat, fish and other gastronomic products. There’s also an outdoor area with stalls, a night market and a round-the-clock farmers’ market. Once a symbol of the deprivation of the Old Soviet days, it’s now a must-visit tourist destination and a great place to get acquainted with flavours of Latvian cuisine." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
