My time in Granada, Nicaragua continued with a tour of its Central Market! Come with me as I try lots of Nicaraguan street food in the Granada Central Market!
My guide Carlos and I made our way down the tight, congested lanes of the market. There were cars, motorcycles, and buses, along with pedestrians!

We stopped at a vendor selling lots of dairy, including a delicious manchego-like cheese. We also tried some cheese that had vegetables in it and a yogurt drink.
Next, we had some Granada-style frito, or fried pork or pork rinds. It was crunchy and very oily and fatty. It was also a little hard but tasty!
There was also some Granada fried pork. It was a lot better than the pork rinds and super juicy and meaty!
There was so much activity in the market, from horses to vendors selling pinatas and clothes. Inside the covered section were lots of clothing vendors.
We saw some massive, whole chicharrones and another woman selling chancho con yuca, a dish made with marinated pork, yucca, and cabbage with membro.
I loved the creamy, salty sauce on the pork, the pickles, and the crunchy cabbage. The boiled yuca was fantastic, and I loved the marinated pork. It wasn’t too spicy either!
It tasted almost like a wheatgrass and felt super healthy even though they’d added sugar to it. Then, we found a vendor selling pinol de iguana, which is a corn stew containing iguana meat, onions, and egg!
It was a delicious corn stew, similar to watery grits. I loved the caramelized onions and the fat from the iguana meat. The rib meat was really nice! I sat down with the vendor and had a conversation with her while I ate!
The iguana meat contained lots of bones, though. The ribs were really small. I drank the rest of the stew to finish it off.
The woman starts cooking at 2 a.m., sets up at 6 a.m., and by 8:30, she had sold out for the day! I got one of her last bowls! It only cost 70 cordobas/$1.95 USD.
Nearby were spice vendors selling cloves, cinnamon sticks, hibiscus, achiote, and more. We continued on past sponge vendors to one selling candied fruit called almibar. She had mango, papaya, and hocote. It’s a traditional food eaten during Easter!
It was extremely sweet and covered in something like a jelly or a marmalade. I loved how delicious the papaya and mango were. They were like pure sugar! The papaya was my favorite! It costs 30 cordoba/roughly $1 USD for a bag.
We continued on past produce, rice, and bean vendors and found an antique barber shop. I wanted to get a mustache trim so it wouldn’t get in my food anymore!
My guy also cleaned up the lining on my beard, which I was letting grow out! It cost 50 cordobas/$1.39 USD! Next, they cleaned up Carlos’ mustache!
Next was leche agria, a thick yogurt drink. They added a bit of salt, and you eat it with some thin tortilla, slightly crispy! It was a nice balance.
We saw vendors selling Nica rice and red beans and went back outside. The outdoor vendors sold home goods, clothes, hocotes, bananas, mangoes, melon, and more.
There were some making tortillas rellenos stuffed with rice and meat. They stuff it, batter it, and fry it!
The meat was fantastic by itself, but the stuffed tortilla with cabbage on top was almost like a tosta. I loved it! It was the perfect street food!
We finished up with some cheese with chilies in it!
