Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 20%.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.
