Hua-It - the largest vegetable market in the South?! News to me... or maybe I'm just a giant onion. There is a market that deals with veggies, but it isn't the night market at Hua-It. I wonder where it will be...

Mind you, I'm game to eat large mushrooms...

I live in Hua-it and yes, it is a big market with produce going to provinces throughout the south. Go there in the early hours and you'll see the trucks going out. However if they're going to do anything 'public' in it, they will have to give it a bloody good cleanup first - it really is in a mess. The night market is the one across the road by the motorbike showrooms.
