意思
The act of purchasing fresh produce.
文化背景
Bargaining is expected. If you don't bargain while 'tarkari kinnu', you might be overcharged, and the vendor might even find the transaction less engaging. The Kalimati Fruit and Vegetable Market is the largest hub. People often go there at 4 AM to buy vegetables at wholesale prices. Due to the flat land, vegetables are abundant and often cheaper. The term 'Sabji' is more prevalent here than in the hills. Plastic bags are officially banned in many cities. When you go to 'tarkari kinnu', it is culturally polite and environmentally responsible to bring your own cloth bag (thailo).
The 'Morning' Rule
If you want the best 'tarkari', go before 8 AM. That's when the farmers bring their fresh harvest.
Check the Weights
Some vendors use traditional weights (dharni/pau). 1 Pau is about 200g. 1 Dharni is about 2.4kg.
