Restaurants
For dinner, we recommend exploring the smaller streets just outside the Market Square and Fish Market. While those central spots are lovely to visit, the restaurants there are often more touristic. You’ll find much better quality, authentic food, and atmosphere in the surrounding streets where locals go — cozy bistros, hidden gems, and family-run places.
