Fruits are better, in terms of cheaper and more choice, buy at the fruit market, the only thing in your smartphone is to save the Arabic numerals to orient yourself in the price tags, otherwise you will be called an inflated price.

It is better to buy at the market. Be sure to bargain.
We are waiting for the topics "where is the best place to buy mango, avocado in Cairo?", "where is the best place to buy mango, avocado in Taba?" and "where is the best place to buy mango, avocado in Marsa Alam?".

Alex714, in addition to what you said (quite right), it is better to bargain in the local currency at the bazaar, because beginners who are not oriented are very often heated on surrender by pounds from dollars.

sellers are still very good at deceiving tourists in terms of $, moreover, out of the blue! Mangoes are definitely cheaper on the market, but pomegranates are half the price in the markets.

Allow me to disagree with the professionals, but in Hurghada it is better to buy mangoes and other fruits in Senzo Mall, a shopping and entertainment center. The choice of fruits is huge. In September, there were only 5 varieties of mangoes at a price of 14 to 28 pounds. give a dollar for fruits, then they will pick up boxes for the road and choose what you want, at least one piece from each box. Moreover, it is very convenient to pay with a bank card.

Yes, cheaper and more choice!
Is the fruit market the only one or does the location have a name/address? Please clarify!

A full-fledged market, in fact, there is only one - in Dahar. In Arabic, it is called suuk (not suuk, not su-uk, but the usual long y) ad-dahar. It does not have any address in our understanding, just say suuk ad-dahar to the taxi driver - and you will get there. Or you can take a shuttle bus. Actually, all the fruits and vegetables are there. In Senzo there is a Spinis supermarket, everything is also there, but a little more expensive. Supermarkets Spinis, Abu Ashar, Metro, Carrefour are open around the clock, and the Dahar market is open during daylight hours. My favorite tea is العروس (el arus), which translates as "Bride". A yellow box, something like a Russian nesting doll is drawn on it. It is inexpensive and always happens in Spinice/Metro. This is a black, very strong brewed Kenyan tea. It happens in bags and granulated of two types (large and small) Well, hibiscus, of course! And so, the rest of the teas - well, nothing special, we have a larger selection of tea. For some reason, the Egyptians themselves love Lipton more.

Spices and spices in Spinis are sold by weight - they are nothing special, Egypt, this is not India. Take any, focusing on the smell / taste. In general, I recommend starting acquaintance with all this from supermarkets - only then to the market. The difference in prices is not of fundamental importance, of course, the supermarket is a little more expensive. But you look at the prices first there - so you will find out more than what amount you are interested in cannot cost. Pay attention to expensive locally produced juices: they are not powdered, the same mango and have a limited shelf life. And there are also a bunch of private shops where they sell freshly squeezed juices. But, you know, they don’t wash fruits - at your own peril and risk. In principle, you can buy any fruit, wash it yourself and ask the restaurant manager at the hotel to make fresh. He will be a little surprised, but, most likely, for a fee, they will quickly do everything for you. Also, they can cook the fish and meat you bought, as you wish.

In good hotels, as a rule - and the chefs are professional, they will cook the same fish from the fish market (the fish market is near the main mosque) perfectly (in hotels they rarely feed fish - and never good, it's too expensive). Or in any restaurant on the street you can do the same. Of course, it will come out more expensive than the dishes from the menu - but more interesting. You know, and if you want something typically local, buy - no kidding, local tortillas on the street. They are delicious, very cheap, and you will not try them anywhere except among the Arabs.
