I wish I had my camera when I stumbled upon the dish market! There is a big vegetable whole sale market next to my school...it's on the walk home. Usually I only stop when I need to buy a lot of veggies. But this day I decided to walk around and explore only to discover this was the dish whole sale market too. There were plenty of shops with hundreds of ceramic bowls, plates, cups, and spoons. Despite my heavy grocery bags I couldn't resist wandering around the isles of colorful dishes. Upon entering a shop, my eyes could hardly taken in all the different shapes and patterns. It was even more beautiful as none of the shops had shelves, but rather they were all in tall stacks on the ground! The best part was the price ranged from a few cents (for spoons & cups) to a few dollars (for large serving bowls & plates). Beautiful and cheap, how do you beat that?!?(This picture is one I found on the Crate&Barrel website because it looks similar to the dishes at the market -- only difference is this dish costs $33 and the market's dish costs $2.)
